  • 본 연구에서 우리는 혼합현실 애플리케이션을 활용해 어린이들에게 다양한 교통상황을 간접적으로 체험하게 하고, 사고의 위험에서 스스로 방어 행동을 할 수 있도록 도움을 주는 "Zetton 어린이 교통안전교육" 애플리케이션을 개발했다. 개발된 애플리케이션은 어린이 교통사고 중 사망률이 높은 사고 유형을 분석해 학습 목표를 정하였고, 목표 달성을 재미있게 체험을 할 수 있도록 개발되었다. 플레이어는 여러 교통상황을 정해진 시나리오를 플레이하는 과정에서 신호체계와 교통정보를 자연스럽게 습득할 수 있도록 체험 중심 콘텐츠가 되도록 개발하였다. 개발된 애플리케이션의 교육 효과성 검증을 위해 방과 후 교육 활동으로 어린이들에게 교통안전교육을 했다. 그 결과 교육 전보다 교육 후에 교통안전에 대한 인식과 학습 목표와 관련된 질문에 올바른 대답 빈도가 높아졌다.

  • Purpose : We aimed to evaluate the impact of a exercise with kinect-based mixed reality device (KMR) on physical function, upper extremity disability, fatigue, and quality of life in breast cancer survivors. We hypothesized that this exercise program would improve physical function, physical activity, fatigue, and quality of life. Methods : Thirty-nine breast cancer survivors were randomized to either the KMR exercise group (KE) or the home stretch group (HS). The KE participated in 8 weeks of exercise, exercising 3 times per week, while the HS performed 8 weeks of stretching exercises, also 3 times per week. Before and after the intervention period, participants underwent assessments of physical function, including body composition, chester step test (CST), and hand grip strength (HGS). Additionally, participants completed questionnaires including the international physical activity questionnaire (IPAQ), disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) questionnaire, and functional assessment of cancer therapy-breast (FACT-B) questionnaire to measure their physical activity levels, upper extremity disability, and quality of life, respectively. Results : Overall, significant improvements were observed in several shoulder movements, body weight, and physical activity, with no significant interaction effects between groups and time. Furthermore, there was a significant group by time interaction for body weight, left flexion, right flexion, right abduction, and left adduction, as well as for upper extremity disability (K-DASH) and quality of life (FACT-B). Conclusion : In conclusion, the KMR exercise program was found to be effective at improving physical function, upper extremity disability, quality of life, and overall well-being in breast cancer survivors. The significant improvements observed in multiple measures and the significant group by time interactions for various outcomes highlight the potential benefits of this KMR exercise program in promoting a better quality of life for breast cancer survivors.

  • 비디오 씨쓰루 HMD(VSHMD)는 HMD 전면에 장착된 카메라를 통해 실세계 영상을 획득하여 이를 HMD의 디스플레이를 통해 실시간으로 출력하는 장치로서 혼합현실, 증강현실, 가상현실 구현 도구로 활용된다. 최근 카메라 및 디스플레이 기술이 급속히 발전하면서 VSHMD의 성능이 빠르게 향상되고 있으나 아직까지 VSHMD가 갖는 여러 기술적, 인간 요소적 문제들이 해결되지 못하고 있다. 본 논문은 지금까지 수행된 선행 연구 결과들을 시야각(FOV), 디스플레이 해상도, 영상지연, 시점차 등의 주요 설계 요소별로 정리하였다. 그리고 성공적인 VSHMD 개발을 위해 극복해야 할 인간요소 관점의 주요 연구주제들을 조사하였다. 이를 근거로 VSHMD의 설계, 개발 및 VSHMD 응용 서비스를 개발할 때 중요하게 다뤄야 하는 기술적 이슈들을 제시하였다.

  • Recent advances in Internet-of-Things and wearable computing have established computationally sufficient infrastructure to remove the barriers of physical locations. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the use of remote collaboration, work-from-home, teleconferencing, online education, digital twin, and metaverse enriched with various configurations of augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality, and extended reality. Beyond specialized niche wearable applications in the medical and entertainment domains, we aim to identify the underlying characteristics of smartglass-enabled killer applications for everyday use. In this paper, we analyze intermediary roles in remote collaboration consisting of authoritative supervisors, synergetic collaborators, and speculative explorers. We also propose technical components for smartglass-assisted interactive remote collaboration composed of personal tracking, teleconference, and interaction components. More specifically, the application tasks of each intermediary role and objectives of three functional components are defined and elaborated.

  • 본 연구에서는 간호 대학생이 가상현실을 적용하여 여성건강간호학 실습 교육과정을 적용한 후 메타인지와 비판적 사고에 미치는 교육효과를 질적, 양적으로 혼합연구 방법으로 분석하였다. 본 연구의 설계는 단일군 사전사후 검증을 사용한 양적 연구와 개별 심층 면담을 활용하여 내용 분석한 질적 연구를 활용한 수렴적 혼합연구이다. 양적 연구 결과 메타인지는 가상현실 프로그램 적용 후에 사후 104.16±12.98, 사전 98.59±18.09 (t=1.85, p=.030)로 사후 점수가 사전 점수에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 높았다. 비판적 사고능력은 프로그램 적용 후에 사후 101.66±7.18, 사전 99.18±15.13 (t=1.00, p=.108)로 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 그러므로 가상현실을 활용한 여성건강간호학 실습 교육은 간호대학생의 메타인지를 증진하는 데 도움을 줄 수 있어 간호학 실습 교육으로 활용할 가치가 있다.

  • Recently, there are lots of concerning on the control of multi-agent control system and mixed reality integrating real and virtual environments. In this paper, an integrated agent control system based on mixed reality and mobile environment is proposed. The system consists of a manager, agents, a mapping module, a geographic information module, a WAP server, and a mobile manager. The manager has Hybrid Device Manager(HDM) working for revising images and position data of the agents to display that at the 3D virtual and mobile environments respectively. Especially, the images of the agent is translated to LBM format and displayed on the mobile phone, and the current position of the agent is displayed on the display screen, so that a user are able to control the agent when he is moving. Experimental results shows the proposed system lets us control the agents conveniently at a computer and a mobile phone.

  • With continued technology innovation in the fields of computer graphics (CG) and virtual reality (VR), digital animated avatars (or virtual humans) are evolving into ones that are more interactive at a suitable location such as museum, airport, and shopping mall. Specially, the form of the avatar (or the virtual human) realistically need to be expressed in a way that matches the users' physical space. In recent many researches, the form of virtual human has been expressed as mixed-reality human (MRH)-the virtual human combines with the physicality as the real part. In this paper, we propose to carry out a study comparing various MRH on co-presence and emotional response in two-typed virtual humans depending on how many actual parts are included: (1) (Level 1) small parts in the virtual human combined virtual components (e.g., the head only) and (2) (Level 2) large parts in the virtual human with the physicality as the real part such as head, arms, and upper body). We report on the implemented results of our virtual humans and experimental results on co-presence and emotional response.

  • In Korea, the military has been conducting counseling forthe preemptive detection of psychologically unstable soldiers to prevent unexpected accidents and to help them adapt to military life. However, several soldiers feel anxious about face-to-face counseling with military officers and they have difficulty expressing themselves. Video See-Through HMD is a state-of-the-art mixed reality device that converts the user's real view into a digital view, which leads users to feel the actual situation as the virtual. To validate its usefulness as a new psychological counseling aid, we investigated 11 army soldiers who are under the counseling program in barracks. During the counseling conversation, participants were asked to wear or take off the Video See-Through HMD repeatedly. All conversations were recorded for behavioral observation. As a result, 80% of the soldiers showed a relatively stable state of mind when wearing the Video See-Through HMD, which leads them to be innocent and frank about their concerns. This method could improve the effectiveness of counseling to prevent unexpected accidents caused by unnoticeable psychological instabilities of the clients.
