최근 국내에서 가상현실 시장을 확보하기 위해 국가 및 대기업들이 적극적인 노력을 하고 있다. 이는 가상현실 시장의 확대가 전세계적으로 급속하게 커져가고 있기 때문이다. 대부분의 콘텐츠들은 가상현실 콘텐츠로 전환 될 것을 예측하고 있으며, 이에 발 맞춰 국외 대기업들은 서로 가지고 있는 가상현실 기술제휴를 통해 새로운 기술들을 개발하고 매년 출시하고 있다. 이러한 VR, AR, MR (virtual, augmented, mixed Reality) 기술 및 콘텐츠 제작 기술의 보유는 앞으로의 중요한 핵심 경제를 주도할 원동력이 될 것이다. 따라서 국내에서도 최적화된 콘텐츠와 사용자의 경험 제공을 위해 소프트웨어 플랫폼 개발과 소프트웨어 탑재를 위한 하드웨어 개발에 적극적인 노력이 필요한 때이다. 이에 본고에서는 국내외 가상현실 기술 기반의 콘텐츠 동향에 대해 다룬다.

By estimating environment light distribution, we can generate realistic shadow images in AR(augmented reality). When we estimate light distribution without sensing equipment, environment light model, geometry of virtual object, and surface reflection property are needed. Previous study using 3D marker builds surrounding light environment with a geodesic dome model and analyzes shadow images. Because this method employs candidate shadow maps in initial scene setup, however, it is difficult to estimate precise light information. This paper presents a novel light estimation method based on hierarchical light distribution model subdivision. By using an overlapping area ratio of the segmented shadow and candidate shadow map, we can make hierarchical subdivision of light geodesic dome.

최근 연구들에서, 증강 현실(Augmented Reality; AR) 환경에서의 촉각 상호작용에 대한 가능성이 논의되었다. 비젼 기반의 트래킹을 기초로 한 증강 현실 기술은 미리 정의된 2차원 마커(marker)를 이용하여, 카메라로부터 획득된 실시간 영상 위에 가상 물체를 증강한다. 그러나, 카메라로부터 획득된 데이터는 몇몇 오차 요인들, 예를 들어 마커의 위치를 인식하는데 나타나는 오차, 카메라 안에 존재하는 센서 잡음 등으로 인해서 마커 잡음(마커를 인식하면서 나타나는 잡음)이 불가결하게 발생하게 된다. 이러한 이유로 인해서, 사용자가 한 손에는 마커를, 다른 한 손으로는 촉감 장치를 이용하여, 마커에 증강된 물체를 만질 때, 마커 잡음은 힘의 떨림(force trembling)을 발생시킨다. 심지어, 이러한 현상은 정지된 마커에 증강된, 마커가 움직이지 않는 상황에서도 발생한다. 게다가, 마커 위에 증강된 물체가 약간 빠른 속도로 이동하게 될 경우, 측정된 이동 거리는 연속적인 프레임(frame)들 간의 불연속적일 수 있다. 만약 사용자가, 대략 30Hz로 위치와 방향이 갱신되는 가상물체를 촉각적으로 상호작용하려 한다면, 계산되는 반력은 급작스런 힘의 변화를 생성하게 될 수도 있다. 이러한 현상을 극복하기 위해서, 마커 잡음을 최소화하기 위해서 정적 임계값(constant threshold)을 이용할 뿐만 아니라, 보간법을 같이 사용한 방법이 있었다. 하지만, 이러한 방법은 정적 임계값을 이용하고, 영상 프레임 갱신 속도와(video frame rate)와 촉각 프레임 갱신 속도가 일정하다는 가정을 사용하였기 때문에, 여전히 힘의 불연속적인 발생이 나타난다. 따라서, 이 논문에서는 두 가지 방법을 이용하여 증강 현실 내에서, 발생할 수 있는 힘의 불연속적인 변화를 보정하는 두 가지 방법, 잡음 제거를 위한 확장된 칼만 필터(Extend Kalman Filter)와 영상과 촉각 갱신 속도 차이에 따른 갑작스런 힘의 변화를 제거하기 위한 적응적 외삽법(Adaptive Extrapolation method)을 제안한다.

We are suggesting an authoring tool can be used for prototyping in the augmented reality based product design environment. This tool is for authors without an engineering background to use. Our authoring tool can adjust the properties of visual, sound, and haptic feedback at the same time for more practical prototyping. Also the proposed modulated architecture can be applied flexibly to changes of platforms or hardware. Also user interfaces can be dynamically updated by changing just description files. finally, the suggested authoring methods exploit the advantages of both graphical and tangible user interfaces. Authors can intuitively make adjustments to many parameters using the TUI, and then they can do the same thing precisely using the GVI. The proposed authoring methods can be used for exhibition and entertainment contents using multi-sensory feedback in AR environment. As a future work, qualitative and quantitative usability test will be conducted.

Locative media is fundamentally different from traditional media in terms of being packed with user's space, place, and position nearby, which does not simply mean user's physical coordinates. This study has been started that I was drawn by the tendency of which current locative media contents are based on 'location-based information,' and closely related with 'Augmented Reality.' I wonder how media user's psychological experience/involvement are revealed when the media environment changes by the progress of technology. I wonder how media users perceive 'social presence' formed by locative media in current locative media environment. Particularly, the fact that user's perception of social presence formed in locative media conflicts with the previous computer-mediated communication(CMC)'s attributes deepened my curiosity. In this study, the idea of 'more-proper-construct' is suggested, the characteristics of social presence in current locative media is considered, and is investigated by qualitative methodology how the 'location-based' attributes and 'AR' contribute to forming the social presence.

AR(Augmented Reality) needs medium between real and virtual, world, and recognition techniques are necessary to track an object continuously. Optical tracking using marker is mainly used, but it takes time and is inconvenient to attach marker onto the target objects. Therefore, many researchers try to develop markerless tracking techniques nowaday. In this paper, we extract features and 3D position from 3D objects and suggest realtime tracking based on these features and positions, which do not use just coplanar features and 2D position. We extract features using SURF, get rotation matrix and translation vector of 3D object using POSIT with these features and track the object in real time. If the extracted features are nor enough and it fail to track the object, then new features are extracted and re-matched to recover the tracking. Also, we get rotation in matrix and translation vector of 3D object using POSIT and track the object in real time.

In this paper, We propose real-time sound editing and playback systems which is based on Augmented Reality. The proposed system are composed with music maker which is based on AR maker and music board. By using music marker's contents, the proposed system selects the kinds of musical instruments and pre-defined midi track and by calculating the relative location of music marker on 2-dimensional plane, we set the spatial relative parameter in midi track. For performance evaluation, we check the jitter value of in various resolutions by using CAM which supports $1600{\pm}1200$ as the maximum resolution. As a result, when we set the configuration value of CAM as $860{\pm}600$ pixels and process two frames per minute, the success ratio of recognizing music markers and jitter values are accegnable. It can be utilized in the fields of alternative cmacine which is based on music and also be utilized in the educational aspects because child or elderly who don't know enough musical theory can easily handle it.

Recently, application fields using machine learning have been widely expanded. In addition to the spread of smart devices, application services using location-based services are also in demand. However, it is difficult to provide the application service through the positioning in the indoor environment such as the specific space where the disaster situation where the information for positioning can not be collected and the actual location location information can not be used. In this situation, using the spatial information composed of the marker information and the markers of the neighbor registered in the augmented reality environment, positioning at a specific situation or position becomes possible. At this time, it is possible to learn the operation that makes the configuration of the marker-based spatial information correspond to the actual position through the machine learning, and the optimal positioning result can be obtained by minimizing the error. In this paper, we study the positioning methods required in specific situations using machine learning for learning of augmented reality markers and spatial information.
