가상현실은 4차 산업 혁명의 키워드 중에 하나이다. 가상현실은 인간이 시간, 공간의 제약으로 인해 경험하지 못하는 것들을 새로운 플랫폼으로 경험하게 해주어 시간, 공간의 제약과 환경의 제약을 극복하게 해준다. 현재 게임으로 한정된 VR 콘텐츠를 사용자들이 촬영한 360도 동영상으로 보완할 수 있기 때문에 국내외 대기업에서도 360도 VR 동영상에 공을 들이고 있다. 특히, 360도 VR동영상은 방송, 쇼핑, 관광 등에 활용하기에 적합하여 관련 분야의 기업에서 360도 동영상을 활용하면 효율적인 비즈니스가 가능하다. 그러나 아직 국내에서는 본격적으로 360도 동영상 콘텐츠를 활용한 사례가 거의 없다. 본 연구에서는 360도 VR동영상에 대해 고찰하고 호텔기업에 활용 할 것을 제안하고 분석한다.

Ultra high-quality and ultra high-resolution omnidirectional 360-degree video streaming is needed to provide immersive media through head-mounted display(HMD) in virtual reality environment, which requires high bandwidth and computational complexity. One of the approaches avoiding these problems is to apply viewport-dependent selective streaming using tile-based segmentation method. This paper presents a performance analysis of viewport-dependent tiled streaming on 16K ultra high-quality 360-degree videos and 4K 360-degree videos which are widely used. Experimental results showed 42.47% of bjotegaard delta rate(BD-rate) saving on 16K ultra high-quality 360-degree video tiled streaming compared to viewport-independent streaming while 4K 360-degree video showed 26.41% of BD-rate saving. Therefore, this paper verified that tiled streaming is more efficient on ultra-high quality video.

Since 360-degree ERP frame structure has location-dependent distortion, existing video surveillance algorithms cannot be applied to 360-degree video. In this paper, an activated viewport based event detection method is proposed for 360-degree video. After extracting activated viewports enclosing object candidates, objects are finally detected in the viewports. These objects are tracked in 360-degree video space for region-based event detection. The proposed method is shown to improve the recall and the false negative rate more than 30% compared to the conventional method without activated viewports.

$360^{\circ}$panoramic image can give people an unprecedented visual experience, and there are many different ways to make a $360^{\circ}$panoramic image. In this paper, we will introduce two easy and effective methods from those many ways. The first one is through 48 photos to make a $360^{\circ}$panoramic image, the second way is through 6 photos to make a $360^{\circ}$panoramic image. We will compare those methods and tell the audience which one suits themselves. Through those easy design methods introduced above, we can see VR works design became easy and popular, normal people can also make $360^{\circ}$panoramic image, and it promotes the industry of VR image contents.

Recently, many companies and consumers has shown a lot of interest toward VR(Virtual Reality), so many VR devices such as HMD(Head mounted Display) and 360 degree VR camera are released on the market. Current encoded 360 degree VR video uses the codec which originally made for the conventional 2D video. Therefore, the compression efficiency isn't optimized because the en/decoder does not consider the characteristics of the 360 degree VR video. In this paper, we propose a method to improve the compression efficiency by using the reference frame which compensates for the distortions caused by characteristics the 360 degree VR video. Applying the proposed method we were able to increase the compression efficiency by providing better prediction.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a gimbal system installed in the UFV(unmanned flight vehicles) for 360 degree VR video. In particular, even if the UFV rotated any direction the camera position is fiexd to minimize the shaking using the gyro sensor and the camera system is stable for taking $360^{\circ}$ panorama VR images.

최근 360도 형태로 영상을 촬영하고 제공하는 경우가 많아 일반적인 동영상과 달리 360도 형태의 영상저작물에 적절하고 효과적인 방법으로 광고를 삽입하여 노출 시킬 수 있는 방법이 필요하게 되었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 실감형 360도 영상저작물 객체 추출을 통한 추천 광고 매칭방법을 제안한다. 360도 영상저작물 내에 광고를 매칭하고 추출된 객체와 연관된 광고를 추출하여 해당 프레임에 자동으로 삽입 노출이 가능하도록 하는 방법으로 이 방법을 이용함으로써 사용자의 현재 시점 영역 내에 광고 영상이 노출되도록 광고의 삽입 위치를 이동시켜 영상이 재생되도록 하거나, 광고 영상이 삽입된 좌표로 사용자의 현재 시점을 이동시켜 영상이 재생되게 할 수 있다.

In this study, after applying VR 360-degree video contents for intravenous infusion education, basic data on whether VR 360-degree video can be applied as educational content in the future is prepared by grasping the empathy and flow of nursing students in graduating grades. The VR 360 degree intravenous infusion educational content was developed in four-step process of planning, production, modification and completion. The design of this study was descriptive research, and the study period was from November 9 to November 22, 2019. The subjects of this study were 4th grade nursing students at a university, totaling 64 students. Nursing students watched VR 360 degree intravenous infusion educational content using HMD(head mounted display) under the safety management of the researcher. As a result of the study, the empathy of nursing students was 5.32±0.88 points and the flow was 6.02±0.84 points out of 7-point scale. The VR 360 degree intravenous infusion educational content developed in this study can be used as an educational medium in subjects and comparative departments, and it is necessary to specifically develop and verify teaching and learning methods in future studies.

몰입감 있는 가상 현실 영상을 제공하기 위한 360 도 영상 부호화 및 전송 기술이 활발히 연구되고 있으나, 현재 가상현실 장비가 사용가능한 연산 능력 및 대역폭으로는 몰입감 있는 영상을 전송 및 재생하기에 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 고화질 360 도 사용자 시점 영상 제공을 위해 사용자 시점 타일을 추출하는 움직임 제한 타일 셋 기반 타일 추출기를 구현한다. 기존의 high-efficiency video coding (HEVC) 에서 구현되었던 타일 추출기와 달리 제안하는 추출기는 360 도 영상에 대한 비트스트림에서 여러 개의 타일을 추출한다. 이후 추출된 타일들은 전체 360 도 영상에 대한 저화질 비트스트림과 동시 전송되어 예상치 못한 사용자 시점 변경에 대응한다.

Recently, the metaverse has been receiving a lot of attention. Metaverse means a virtual space, and various events can be held in this space. In particular, 360-degree video, a format optimized for the metaverse space, is attracting attention. A 360-degree video image is created by stitching images taken with multiple cameras or lenses in all 360-degree directions. When shooting a 360-degree video, a variety of shooting equipment, including a shooting staff to take a picture of a subject in front of the camera, is displayed on the video. Therefore, when shooting a 360-degree video, you have to hide everything except the subject around the camera. There are several problems with this shooting method. Among them, lighting is the biggest problem. This is because it is very difficult to install a fixture that focuses on the subject from behind the camera as in conventional image shooting. This study is an experimental study to find the optimal angle for 360-degree images by adjusting the angle of indoor lighting. We propose a method to record 360-degree video without installing additional lighting. Based on the results of this study, it is expected that experiments will be conducted through more various shooting angles in the future, and furthermore, it is expected that it will be helpful when using 360-degree images in the metaverse space.
