Recently, the number of elderly living alone suffering from loneliness and depression is also increasing significantly due to the rapid aging of the population and nuclear families. In this paper, we propose a smart aging system that increases life satisfaction by providing the elderly with the optimal service tailored to the elderly with the help of IT according to their residential environment and health status. It is possible to provide an advanced customized support system for the elderly by fully utilizing IoT, AI, and Metaverse techniques not only for the elderly who want to live an active life in society but also for the elderly who need care in a nursing hospital. The proposed system provides human satisfaction by providing social connection in real space and virtual space in accordance with the residential environment and health status to the elderly suffering from loneliness in hospital (hospital care) facilities and at home. This paper proposes a new path for future-oriented welfare policy for the elderly by providing a user-customized smart aging system by combining AI and Metaverse technology with a rapidly changing social environment.

The metaverse applies various technological means such as digital twin modeling, 3D rendering, and holographic imaging, which can provide an immersive tourism service experience. However, since the development of the metaverse is still in its infancy, there is relatively little research on digital tourism from the perspective of the metaverse. This research empirically studies the factors that promote the participation behavior of users on the metaverse platform for digital cultural tourism. Our results show that users' internal motivations for learning and entertainment and the functions provided by metaverse, which are sensory stimulation and social interaction lead to the intention to participate in cultural tourism on metaverse with the mediating effects of immersion experience and perceived pleasure.

This thesis was developed so that users can access tourism services more easily by utilizing Unity based on the metaverse. The core function and environment of the program were created using Unity, a game production tool, to create a virtual space. In the virtual space, it is implemented so that the tourist service can be used from various angles and positions through NPCs to which control and camera viewpoints are applied. This project is a content that allows you to visit tourist attractions in a virtual world without going to the site by using virtual reality technology. The background and goal of the project is to make it into a game form using a UI frame and fuse it into a simple game form to add fun elements to enable virtual reality tourist experience applying game for tourist attraction publicity.

최근 들어 세계적으로 크게 관심을 받는 메타버스 및 몰입형(가상현실, 확장현실, 및 라이트필드) 콘텐츠 서비스의 응용 범위를 확대하기 위해서는 3D 객체의 실시간 전송을 위한 압축 기술이 필요하다. ISO/IEC 23090 MPEG-I Part 5 로 2021 년 표준화 완료된 V-PCC (Video-based Point Cloud Compression)는 이러한 산업계의 관심 및 필요에 의해서 국제 표준화된 동적 3D 포인트 클라우드 객체 부호화 기술이다. V-PCC 기술의 압축 성능은 기존 산업계 기술에 비해 매우 우수하나, 부호화기의 연산 복잡도가 매우 높다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 V-PCC 부호화기에서 가장 높은 연산 복잡도를 갖는 법선 추정 알고리즘의 결합 고속화 기법을 제안한다. 법선 추정은 2 개의 알고리즘으로 구성되어 있다. 첫번째는 "방향을 무시하는 법선 추정 알고리즘(normal estimation)"이고, 두번째는 첫번째 알고리즘에서 추정된 법선들을 대상으로 하는 "법선 방향 추정 알고리즘(normal orientation)"이다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 고속화 기법은 2 개 알고리즘을 결합하여 첫번째 법선 추정 알고리즘에서 획득한 부가 정보를 두번째 법선 방향 추정 알고리즘에서 활용함으로써 연산량을 대폭 줄이고, 또한 법선 방향 추정 알고리즘 내의 우선순위 큐 자료구조를 변경하여 추가적인 고속화를 달성한다. 7 개 테스트 영상에 대한 실험 결과, 압축 효율 저하 없이 법선 방향 추정 알고리즘의 속도를 평균 89.2% 향상시킬 수 있다.

As a key infrastructure for digital transformation, the spread of data, network, artificial intelligence (D.N.A.) fields and the emergence of promising industries are laying the groundwork for active digital innovation throughout the economy. In this study, by applying the text mining methodology, major topics were derived by using the abstract, publication year, and research field of the study corresponding to the SCIE, SSCI, and A&HCI indexes of the WoS database as input variables. First, main keywords were identified through TF and TF-IDF analysis based on word appearance frequency, and then topic modeling was performed using g-DMR. With the advantage of the topic model that can utilize various types of variables as meta information, it was possible to properly explore the meaning beyond simply deriving a topic. According to the analysis results, topics such as business intelligence, manufacturing production systems, service value creation, telemedicine, and digital education were identified as major research topics in digital transformation. To summarize the results of topic modeling, 1) research on business intelligence has been actively conducted in all areas after COVID-19, and 2) issues such as intelligent manufacturing solutions and metaverses have emerged in the manufacturing field. It has been confirmed that the topic of production systems is receiving attention once again. Finally, 3) Although the topic itself can be viewed separately in terms of technology and service, it was found that it is undesirable to interpret it separately because a number of studies comprehensively deal with various services applied by combining the relevant technologies.
