기존 인터넷 환경에서는 대부분 2차원 정보를 제공하고 있는데, 이용자가 현실 환경과 유사한 정보를 추구하게 되면서 점차 가상의 현실감을 제공하는 3D 정보의 요구가 늘고 있다. VRML(Virtual Reality Markup Language)은 이러한 3D의 정보를 가시화 해주는 언어로써 일부 진자상거래 사이트에서 그 구현 예를 볼 수 있다. 본 논문은 VRML 기반의 3D 정보를 제공하는 가상 전시관 저작도구를 설계 하고자 한다 본 가상 전시관 저작도구는 JAVA와 VRML을 기반으로 VRML 객체를 실시간으로 접근할 수 있도록 설계하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 가상전시관 저작도구는 실시간으로 객체 생성 및 수정을 지원함으로써 사용자에게 인터렉티브하게 VRML 데이터를 다를 수 있는 구조를 제공하고 있다.

오늘날 월드 와이드 웹(WWW)의 성장과 함께 인터넷 상에서 3차원 세계를 표현해야 할 필요성이 급격히 증가하고 있다. 이러한 요구에 부응하여 VRML97이 개발되었고, 이는 인터넷에서 3차원 그래픽스 데이터의 표준으로 중요한 역할을 해왔다. 그리고 현재 VRML97로 기술된 데이터를 위한 브라우저가 많이 개발되어 왔다. 현재까지는 대부분 OpenGL이나 Direct3D와 같은 API를 주로 사용해왔으나 SUN의 Java3D가 활성화되면서 Java3D 기반의 VRML97 브라우저도 많이 개발되고 있다. 또한 SUN에서는 이미 3D 브라우저를 위한 프로토타입을 개발하여 제공하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 본 연구팀에서 수행하고 있는 서버-클라이언트 모델의 가상현실 시스템의 클라이언트로서의 X3D 브라우저 개발을 위한 기반 연구로서 수행된 Java3D 기반의 VRML97 브라우저의 이벤트 모델에 대하여 기술한다.

In medical imaging, three-dimensional (3D) display using Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) as a portable file format can give intuitive information more efficiently on the World Wide Web (WWW). The web-based 3D visualization of functional images combined with anatomical images has not studied much in systematic ways. The goal of this study was to achieve a simultaneous observation of 3D anatomic and functional models with planar images on the WWW, providing their locational information in 3D space with a measuring implement using VRML. MRI and ictal-interictal SPECT images were obtained from one epileptic patient. Subtraction ictal SPECT co-registered to MRI (SISCOM) was performed to improve identification of a seizure focus. SISCOM image volumes were held by thresholds above one standard deviation (1-SD) and two standard deviations (2-SD). SISCOM foci and boundaries of gray matter, white matter, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the MRI volume were segmented and rendered to VRML polygonal surfaces by marching cube algorithm. Line profiles of x and y-axis that represent real lengths on an image were acquired and their maximum lengths were the same as 211.67 mm. The real size vs. the rendered VRML surface size was approximately the ratio of 1 to 605.9. A VRML measuring tool was made and merged with previous VRML surfaces. User interface tools were embedded with Java Script routines to display MRI planar images as cross sections of 3D surface models and to set transparencies of 3D surface models. When transparencies of 3D surface models were properly controlled, a fused display of the brain geometry with 3D distributions of focal activated regions provided intuitively spatial correlations among three 3D surface models. The epileptic seizure focus was in the right temporal lobe of the brain. The real position of the seizure focus could be verified by the VRML measuring tool and the anatomy corresponding to the seizure focus could be confirmed by MRI planar images crossing 3D surface models. The VRML application developed in this study may have several advantages. Firstly, 3D fused display and control of anatomic and functional image were achieved on the m. Secondly, the vector analysis of a 3D surface model was defined by the VRML measuring tool based on the real size. Finally, the anatomy corresponding to the seizure focus was intuitively detected by correlations with MRI images. Our web based visualization of 3-D fusion image and its localization will be a help to online research and education in diagnostic radiology, therapeutic radiology, and surgery applications.

VRML은 상호 작용을 하는 3D 객체와 세계를 기술하는 파일 형식이다. OO-VRML은 VRML을 객체 지향 언어로 확장하여 정보 은닉, 상속 그리고 동적 바인딩 등을 가능하게 한 언어이다. OO-VRML의 이런 특징들은 더 동적인 가상 세계를 섬세하게 조정할 수 있도록 해준다. 이 논문에서는 OO-VRML의 표현 능력을 잘 활용하기 위해 OO-VRML 언어를 사용하는 전용 브라우저를 설계하고 구현한다. 부라우저는 파싱 및 인스턴스화 모듈, 실행 모듈, 브라우저 모듈의 세 부분으로 나누어진다. 파싱 및 인스턴스화 모듈은 OO-VRML 형식의 가상 세계를 읽어들여서 객체로 바꾸어주고 그객체들을 인스턴스화하여 OO-VRML장면 그래프로 바꾸어준다. 장면 그래프는 실행 모듈은 발생한 이벤트들을 처리하여 인스턴스의 필드 값을 바꾸어준다. 브라우저 모듈은 가상 세계를 화면에 나타내 주고 사용자 입력과 네비게이션을 처리한다.

If DEM can be visualized by using the VRML which is 3D object expression language, we need not do the most laborous work of making VRML file because of the generality of the DEM. So we can use the 3D interactive map directly. In This paper we can see the DEM visua.lizing procedure and some possibility of Internet GIS using this way.

VRML data, which is mainly structural element, is frequently used for modeling and visualizing 3D objects. Although there can be variations, it is a usual practice to represent 3D shapes in VRML format. Ever since the advent of Internet, there have been strong needs to transfer shape data through Internet. Because of this need, it is necessary to transform a data file in VRML or similar format into a more convenient form to transfer through the network. In a VRML file, a model is sometimes divided into a set of triangle meshes due to several practical reasons. However, this causes various demerits for the fast transmission. Therefore, it is more efficient to merge the mesh sets into one mesh set for the transmission. In this paper, we present the problems in the merge process and the techniques to handle the situation.

VRML is a implementation language which can express the characteristic of the object as it is. There is not many research to concern how it must combine close range Photogrametry and VRML up to now. The purpose of this research are to study how we apply VRML to the data to be acquired by close range photogrammetry and to evaluate the practicality of VRML for 3D image restitution of facilities. We used VRML and implemented the facilities with a 3D image. A research product VRML knew we ate the application very at a sincerity expression of the facilities.

VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is an Web-based standard for modeling 3D spaces and provides applications with 3D interactive interfaces. With its recent upgrade, it supports events, routes, scripts, and other behavior modeling constructs. This paper approaches VRML as a simulation modeling language. This approach promotes the sharing and distribution of simulation results and demonstration among distributed users as well as efficient modeling of systems through the direct mapping of 3D objects and behaviors. This paper analyzes the behavior modeling constructs of VRML, presents effective modeling alternatives through the modeling of a simple material processing system, and discusses the upgrade direction of VRML as a foundation for distributed interactive simulation system.

In this paper, we study the synchronization method of animated simulations and VRs for on-line virtual reality education system. To build the data of animated simulations and synchronization modules of VRML content, the media-synchronizing technology, HTML + TIME and scripts are used. The VRML control module ismade into Java applet using the Java EAI provided for the web and the interface for VRML contents. To control the animation of VRML contents, the node information is extracted, and an animation production template capable of controlling animation in inter-connection with VRML content is made. With evaluation of the animation control performance, processing speed, synchronization performance between media in the system built, more improved results are obtained. We would like to suggest a education system with easy system construction and various multi-medium applicability by realizing HTML + TIME media synchronization and VRML web 3D virtual reality creation techniques, and animated images and 3D animation controls according to time using Java through this study.
