본 논문에서는 Inverse Kinematics(IK) 방법을 이용하여 사족보행 게임 캐릭터의 이동 IK를 구현하였다. 게임 캐릭터의 이동 IK는 Unity의 NavMeshAgent를 사용하여 이동하는 사족보행 생물체가 회전 시 척추를 자연스럽게 꺾이도록 구현되었다. 본 논문에서는 게임캐릭터에 이동 IK를 적용했을 때와 적용하지 않았을 때를 비교하였으며, 이동 IK를 적용한 경우에 경로를 따라 이동하는 사족보행 캐릭터의 애니메이션이 자연스럽게 이루어짐을 확인하였다.

레이싱 게임은 자동차의 물리 지형과의 마찰 그리고 오브젝트간의 충돌을 구성하여 시뮬레이션되어야 한다. 그러나 NPC 의 이동 시에 NPC 도 PC 와 같이 일반적인 자동차 물리를 사용한다면 많은 부하가 걸리게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 부하를 줄이고 NPC 의 이동을 구성하며 인공지능을 포함하여 스스로 길을 찾아가는 효과를 연출하기 위해 물리엔진과 네비게이션 메쉬를 사용하였다.

Game engines have the advantage of enabling efficient content production, such as reducing development time, with minimal visual quality guarantees and support for multi-platforms. Recently, game engines have provided various functions that can easily, quickly, and effectively produce immersive content using virtual reality (VR) HMD. Therefore, this study conducts a comparative study on the development environment in VR content production using Oculus Quest 2 HMD, focusing on Unity and Unreal game engines, which are widely used in the content production industry, including games. First, we compare the basic setup process of building a development environment using Oculus Quest 2 HMD and a dedicated controller based on a VR template project that includes the minimum functions and settings provided by each engine. Next, we present a simple experience environment that can interact in a virtual environment and compare the development environment to use a dedicated controller and the process of building a development environment that directly utilizes hands through the hand tracking function provided by Oculus Quest 2. Through this process, we will understand the basic process of building a VR development environment, and at the same time, we will check the characteristics and differences of the engine and use it as a research that can be applied to various immersive content production.

In this paper, we investigated the approach of advertisement to game users. The interaction area in the game was considered to be an effective advertising delivery area. In order to verify this, theoretical research was applied to the theory of advertising in game interaction. Then, based on the theory, we designed and produced the contents of the Gamification contents. The game was produced by being classified as exposed advertisement and interactive advertisement. Based on these two, professional focus test was conducted. As a result, we have verified the design of a Gamification advertisement applied to game interaction. The validity of the theory of Interactive Advertising Design was acknowledged. However, production verification proved to be below average.

This study multi-dimensionally analyzes "Indie Game: The Movie", The game documentary film published in June, 2012. As game industry increases, game-related documentary films are also being produced. Previous game documentary films usually focus on the success of popular game or game users and deal with the reason of success. However, "Indie Game: The Movie" centers on Indie game developers who are not from famous and huge companies. Due to the development of the game engine, these days, Indie games become a new trend that game developers are able to develop their own game freely. Then, this study has a purpose to study the life of Indie game developers and explore how and why they want to make their own game. More specifically, this study analyzes "Indie Game: The Movie" by 1) Story 2) Conflict and Resolution 3) Form 4) Sequence. As a result, it concludes that "Indie Game: The Movie" has interview section mainly and represents that Indie game developers want to develop their own games due to their ego and identity. In other words, throughout the analysis of the documentary film, it explores the reality that Indie Game developers face and many features of Indie Game in the game industry.

Casual games are easy in terms of control and mode, and thus everyone can enjoy them in their free time. Character games, in particular, feature a variety of cute and attractive characters. Such character games are now available for smartphones, which are used by a large number of users, as well as for PCs. This paper is aimed at demonstrating the design of 2D side-scrolling casual shooting games utilizing Unity 3D Engine, which can be manipulated on smartphones. Unity 3D engine was used because it supports multi-platform with low costs, and it makes it possibile for games to be operated on various platforms using a single program source code. This approach is unique because the design of the games uses cute characters, attractive concepts and easy control, targeting users in their 10s or 20s, unlike existing shooting games that are serious.

Consumer expectations for drama VFX increased as the influx of overseas dramas increased due to the growth of OTT service, but the current production time of the drama production system has a negative effect on the quality and completion of work. This paper proposes a background rendering using a game engine and a subject rendering using background HDRI as environmental lighting. The proposed workflow is expected to reduce the production time of VFX and improve the quality of VFX. The proposed workflow was verified in 3 steps. Comparing game engine and rendering software according to the same lighting environment and camera distance, comparing rendering with existing rendering method and background HDRI generation, and validating the proposed workflow. For verification, quantitative evaluation was performed using Structual similarity index and histogram. This study is expected to be one of the options to improve the quality of VFX and improve the risk.

This paper presents a method to implement a low-cost driving simulator for developing autonomous driving algorithms. This is implemented by using GTA V, a physical engine-based commercial game software, containing a function to emulate output and data of various sensors for autonomous driving. For this, NF of Script Hook V is incorporated to acquire GT data by accessing internal data of the software engine, and then, various sensor data for autonomous driving are generated. We present an overall function of the developed driving simulator and perform a verification of individual functions. We explain the process of acquiring GT data via direct access to the internal memory of the game engine to build up an autonomous driving algorithm development environment. And, finally, an example applicable to artificial neural network training and performance evaluation by processing the emulated sensor output is included.
