This study investigated an evolutionary process of In-game Animation and researched on the action of realization establishing virtual reality. In-game Animation, functioning as contents to visualize games, is responsible for conveying information to achieve goals of games. In-game Animation which is affected by graphic technology was initiated with setting up indicators by dot and line. Followed by the development of technology, In-game Animation has pursued realization, after passing through processes of iconography, materialization, and dimensionalization. The realization of In-game Animation does not simply imitate the real world but creates meaning of reality by establishing space with various factors such as characters and background along with the story, under the premise of virtuality. The realization of In-game Animation is very important to provide the experience of immersion, as it forms a sense of presence through such visual tactility. The process to create meaning of reality provides gamers with experiences, and leads them to expand senses through visual perception and finally absorb the virtuality as reality. Therefore, the image of In-game Animation does not simply imitate the real world but creates meaning of reality by establishing space with various factors such as characters and background along with the story, under the premise of virtuality. The realization of In-game Animation is not limited to blindly portray a realistic image. In addition, the process of realization pursued by In-game Animation is an action to immerse in the game rather than a mere product of technological development.

In Korea there has been scant research on VR games. This work focuses then on college students' perceptions of VR games, factors motivating them to experience VR games, the important features of VR games. This study presents the results of in-depth interview with 10 college students who had recently experienced VR games. VR games, it is found, provide a high level of virtual reality, immersiveness, and controllability. Such attributes may be considered distinctive to mobile, PC, and video games. Gamers' intention to re-experience VR games is influenced by the following important factors: 4D effects in VR games, various VR game contents, freedom in games, unique experience chances, sense of reality, sense of thrill, action-based experiences, and playing in group (multiple player). Study findings also suggest that three important features in VR games known as immersion, engagement, and virtual presence play a pivotal role in influencing positive attitudes toward VR games. Practical implications are also discussed.the help of information technology.

The technology of 'Virtual Reality' has placed in advanced tools for human beings' joy and anger together with sorrow and pleasure in our generation. It has recently tried in a variety ways to use as an implication for treatment in the field of Cognitive Psychology. Especially, it widely approaches to human in terms of that a sense of reality in a virtual world through the five senses should reinterpret the meaning of cognition in the real world. Based on this paradigm shift, it allows for new treatment using the technology of virtual reality. A typical example is a field of Therapy in order to overcome panic disorder. It has advantages that in particular development of flexible interaction technologies in a virtual space can lead patients to experience psychological environments rather than physical one. the interaction technology provides environments in which users' five senses can be actively stimulated, it is very useful that information from the experiences in the virtual world allows people to learn through real experiences by renewing potential energies, advantages of Virtual Reality Therapy can be customized treatment by depending on symptoms in patients with panic disorder and are capable of differentiate application for the cure at each stage. It is to treat by leading patients to get accustomed to environments and situations in real world through care process with each symptom and stage. It is helpful that based on A Human-Sensibility Ergonomics, technologies like immersive virtual reality equipment, force-relative feedback and stereophonic sound, and like stimulating the sense of smell make people to induce experiences by stimulating human's five senses. There are many advantages of immersion in virtual world in that the phenomenon such as challenge, interaction, reality, illusion, and cooperation is expanded. As an application for therapy by growing such augmented reality, virtual space and sharing of data through the Internet and also inexpensive its availability have recently expanded the base. There are other benefits of Virtual Reality Therapy offering active interaction environments for cognitive experience which can provide appropriately adjusted environments for patients who are hard to overcome the real situation because of phobia. In addition to that it is safe and economical and patients' confidentiality is assured. Moreover, due to the principles of applying real-time navigation the Virtual Reality Therapy makes modification and supplementation easier and also it can reduce cybersickness because of the supply of Lenticular allowing people to see stereoscopy without eyeglasses, which makes sense of presence clearer. On top of that due to the development of interactive technologies, it is becoming close to sense of reality similar to real world by leading users to navigate by themselves and to operate objects in a virtual space. This paper will therefore examine, although it is of limited, characteristics of application of virtual reality technology based on A Human-Sensibility Ergonomics used for treatment for a disorder. this paper will analyse a range of its application and problems and it will suggest the future possibilities.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the applicability of virtual reality simulation after experience of dental caries diagnosis for dental students before exposing to clinical pediatric practice. A pediatric patient model of a five-year-old child with primary dentition was developed and a caries model that is amenable to VR(virtual reality) diagnosis was organized and set-up. The dental student's were allowed to use the simulated model for fifteen minutes and their experiences were evaluated using a self-reported questionnaire to evaluate presence and usability of this application. Overall, virtual presence and appearance area of the simulation were highly scored. The result indicates that the VR model has no significant difference from the actual clinical caries regardless of grade of students, gender and VR experience. If the prototype is continuously advanced, its applicability in dental education will increase.

The purpose of this study was to test a large screen and rear-projected virtual reality (VR) interface in color choice for environmental design. The study piloted a single three-dimensional model of a bedroom including furniture in different color combinations. Using a mouse with an $8'{\times}6'$ rear-projector screen, participants could move 360 degree motion in each room. The study used 34 college students who viewed and interacted with virtual rooms projected on a large screen, then filled out a survey. This study aimed to understand the interaction between the users and the VR interface through measurable dimensions of the interaction: interest and user perceptions of presence and emotion. Specifically, the study focused on spatial presence, topic involvement, and enjoyment. Findings should inform design researchers how empirical evidence involving environmental effects can be obtained using a VR interface and how users experience the interaction with the interface.

현재 건축 설계 분야에 사용되고 있는 시스템들은 대부분 데스크탑을 기반으로 하고 있고 설계시에 건축물을 입면, 측면, 평면 등으로 분리하는 인터페이스를 제공하고 있다. 그렇기 때문에 현재 설계되고 있는 건축물이 실제 거리에 적용되었을 때의 느낌을 제대로 파악하기 어렵다. 이에 대해, 실재감을 중시한 가상현실을 통한 건축 응용들이 있었으나 3차원에서의 상호작용이 쉽지 않기 때문에 가능한 상호작용이 제한되는 경향이 있었다. 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 본 논문에서는 실감 있는 3차원 입체 경관을 보여주면서, 설계에 필요한 상호작용의 특성에 따라 2차원과 3차원의 인터페이스 미디어를 복합 활용하는 이른바 복합 인터페이스를 활용한 거리경관 디자인 시스템을 제시한다. 이 시스템을 사용함으로써 사용자들은 실재감 있는 경관을 몰입형 벽면 디스플레이를 통해 확인하면서 모바일 기기를 활용한 복합 인터페이스를 통해 설계할 수 있게 된다.
