This paper presents a fast pattern tracking method using location prediction in cubemap video for 360-degree VR. A spherical cubemap frame has six face textures and searching a pattern is much slower than a flat image. To overcome the limitation, we propose a method of predicting the location of target pattern using Kalman filter and reducing the search area by considering only textures of predicted location. The experimental results showed that the proposed system is much faster than the previous method of searching all six faces and also gives accurate pattern tracking performance.

With the recent increase in interest in metaverse in which virtual and physical spaces are digitally fused, many activities in physical spaces are expected to take place in web-based virtual spaces. Therefore, there is a need for research on a self-sovereign identity system that can secure privacy and mutual trust in a DID(decentralized identifier)-based virtual space environment. We, in this paper, developed and validated a reliable communication method consisting of DIDComm messages, a procedure for generating distributed identifiers, asymmetric keys, and DID documents based on Hyperledger Indy and DIDComm open sources. The developed communication method can be applied to verify each other by exchanging additional information and verifiable credentials for trust among communication participants.

Nowadays, various social media platforms are widely spread and people closely use such platforms in daily life. By doing so, social influencers with a large number of subscribers, views, and comments have huge impact in our society. Following this trend, many companies are actively using influencers for marketing purpose to promote their products and services. In this study, we extract the speeches of influencers from videos for game marketing and analyze them using various text mining techniques. In the analysis, we distinguish game videos leading to successful marketing and failed marketing, and we explore and compare the linguistic features of the influencers for successful and failed marketings.

Metaverse fits well with the lifestyle of MZ generation who carries smart-phones at all times and value their identity. This study proposes a planning model that develops Minhwa, traditional Korean culture and arts, into art galleries on Zepeto, a metaverse platform. To this end, the characteristics of the metaverse platform, open world, sandbox, creator economy, and avatar, are analyzed and developed into a planning to open a Minhwa museum on Zepeto. While reinterpreting traditional Korean art in a modern way, it is worth researching as a metaverse planning and development model suitable for the new-tro sensibility of the MZ generation.

Interaction is an important component in the sense of immersion in augmented reality. However, the function of interaction in augmented reality contents is very weak. Bringing a lot of real environmental information is one of the ways to develop augmented reality, and interaction will naturally develop. In this paper, Leap Motion was used for natural interaction in augmented reality environment through the hand widely used as an interface tool, and extended more from the limited interaction of conventional display touch methods to create a natural interaction. This development of interaction will contribute to the development of various contents as well as augmented reality later.

What difference does the metaverse experience have from the real world? This study investigated the effect of space size and dialogue topic on metaverse user experience. The results from a 3(space size: reality vs. metaverse in an open room vs. metaverse in a closed room) x 2(dialogue topic: positive vs. negative) mixed factorial design experiment (N = 75) revealed statistically significant effects of space on responsiveness, and dialogue topic on closeness. This result implies that designing metaverse for non-immersive devices should include careful considerations regarding the characteristics of the user's real space.

Content featuring next-generation weapons is continuously appearing in games and virtual reality. In the context of story development, the traces of a target's bullet marks are observed differently according to the unique characteristics of the rifle and bullet. Additionally, there is an example of using forensic ballistics to investigate crime by examining the traces of bullets. Understanding the relationship between the ballistic coefficient and cavity by ballistics is crucial during this process. This paper proposes a physics-based cavity simulation using the modified Bresenham's line algorithm, which can enhance realism in games and virtual reality. This simulation accurately models the trajectory of bullets and cavity formation upon impact, creating a more realistic representation of how bullets interact with materials. Overall, physics-based simulations can greatly enhance the realism and immersion of games and virtual reality experiences and can have applications in forensic investigations.

테이블 탑 디스플레이는 인간과 컴퓨터간의 자연스러운 상호작용을 위하여 개발된 인터페이스 중 하나이다. 이것은 인간의 직관적인 도구인 손을 이용하여 컴퓨터와 상호작용을 하기 때문에 기존의 마우스를 이용하는 시스템에 비해 사용자의 흥미를 더욱 유발시킬 수 있으며 따라서 현재 이러한 시스템을 활용하기 위한 많은 컨텐츠들이 개발되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 테이블 탑 디스플레이 인터페이스에서 자연스러운 물체의 상호작용을 지원하는 물리엔진을 구현하였다. 이를 위해 테이블 탑 평면상에서 물체의 선택을 가능하게 하는 2차원 관점의 3차원 변환을 지원하고, 물체가 이동할 때와 물체와 물체의 충돌 시 나타나는 물리현상을 벡터연산을 통해 구현하였고, 네트워크를 통해 다중 사용자 환경에서 물리엔진이 구동되도록 하였다. 본 논문에서는 테이블 탑에서 이와 같은 기능들의 구현을 에어하키 게임을 통해 보인다. 에어 하키는 테이블 위에 퍽을 놓고 라켓으로 퍽을 쳐서 상대방의 골문에 넣어 점수를 얻는 게임이다. 본 논문에서 제안한 물리엔진을 이용함으로써 사용자는 보다 실감나는 인터페이스를 느낄 수 있다.

This study suggests the effectiveness of G-learning English afterschool classes implemented to elementary school students at low achievement level in English. These days, the use of games in teaching and learning, known as G-learning, has gradually expanded, so it is necessary to consider how to adapt G-learning generally in English education. A G-learning afterschool English class was implemented to 23 low-level 5th grade students in an elementary school located in Daejon for 12 weeks. This study set two hypotheses aiming to determine the effectiveness in achievement and affectiveness of the participants. Pre and post achievement tests were conducted. Also, survey and FGI (focused group interview) were carried out twice with the participants. The study found that students' spelling awareness, vocabulary recognition and dialogue comprehension ability (hypothesis 1) were all improved with statistical significance. Moreover, after the class, participants' confidence and interest toward English study showed meaningful increases.
