Among the several types of 3D display methods the autostereoscopic method has an advantage that we can enjoy a 3D image without any additional device but the method has a disadvantage of a narrow viewing zone so that the moving viewer coannot see the 3D image continuously. This disadvantage can be overcome with the detectioni of viewer's positional movement by head tracking. In this paper we suggest a method of detecting the position of the moving viewer's two eyes by using images obtained through a color CCD camera, The suggested method consists of the preprocessing process and the eye-detection process. Through the experiment of applying the suggested method we were able to find the accurate two-eyes position for 78 images among 80 sample input images of 8 different men with the processing speed of 0.39 second/frame using a personal computer.

The campus has been composed of a very variety buildings. However, there is almost no easy way to see information about room number of each floor of the buildings and all buildings. For that reason, in this paper, we have developed a 3D simulation system for the 3D visualization of campus building information. Each building and cross section of floor was modeled in 3D based on the actual drawing. And texture mapping were using real photos. The user interface was divided into frames for menu and 3D viewer. When you select a building name from the menu, 3D viewer shows the selected building by zooming. And menu frame is shown the various information related to the building. Also when you select a room number of each floor, a separate web browser shows the cross section by VRML viewer. Conversely, when you click on the building in the 3D viewer, menu frame is shown the various information related to the building. This system is very useful in that provide realistic building information of campus.

This paper qualitatively analyzes the stereo 3D content factors causing viewer's discomfort. For this, we perform a subjective test that each subject strokes a specific key whenever he or she feels discomfort during watching stereo 3D contents. Also we extract the quantitative values of the factors in the 3D contents to obtain the temporal changes of the factors. Those two sets of data are used to analyze the contents to find the content factors which cause viewer's discomfort. The factors to be considered are the amount and the frequency of the disparity change, story of the contents, situation or environments of a scene, movement and position of the image or camera, color and luminance information as well as disparities themselves. Most researches have dealt with each factor causing viewer's discomfort but this paper focuses on the composite factors rather than each of them. That is, this paper deals with the various strong and weak factors and their composites causing viewer's discomfort in addition to the big disparities which have been mostly so far.

With the increased development of 3D VR applications augmented by recent VR/AR/MR technologies and by the advance of 3D devices, interchangeability and portability of 3D data have become essential. 3D files should be processed in a standard data format for common usage between applications. Providing standardized libraries and data structures along with the standard file format means that a more efficient system organization is possible and unnecessary processing due to the usage of different file formats and data structures depending on the applications can be omitted. In order to provide the function of using a common data file and data structure, this research is intended to provide a programming binding tool for generating and storing standardized data so that various services can be developed by accessing the common 3D files. To achieve this, this paper defines a common data structure including classes and functions to access X3D files with a standardized scheme using the Python programming language. It describes the implementation of a Python language binding viewer, which is an X3D VR viewer for rendering standard X3D data files based on the language binding interface. The VR viewer includes Python based 3D scene libraries and a data structure for creation, modification, exchange, and transfer of X3D objects. In addition, the viewer displays X3D objects and processes events using the libraries and data structure.

Direct3D is a recently developed 3D graphic accelerator such that we could make a Windows graphic programs with Direct3D easily. This paper presents the fractal terrain model viewer developed in terms of Direct3D. The object classes and the input dialog box used the model viewer, program initializing process, and the flow of the model viewer are discussed. Finally, the output of terrain formulation in wire-frame, solid, and point type form are presented. To show the results, the data of a terrain model were made by a fractal technique, the midpoint displacement methods with square lattices of points.

This paper analyzes qualitatively the stereo 3D content factors causing viewer's discomfort. For this, we perform a subjective test that each subject strokes a specific key whenever he (she) feels discomfort during watching a stereo 3D contents. Also we extract the data for the factors in the 3D contents to obtain their quantitative values and the amounts of the temporal changes. Those two sets of data are used to analyze the contents to find the factors which cause viewer's discomfort. The factors to be considered are the amount and the frequency of the disparity changes, story of the contents, situation or environments of a scene, movement and the position of the camera, color and luminance information as well as disparities themselves. We analyse the various strong and weak factors and their composites to find how much discomfort each factor or composite causes. We also show the situations and their related factors that causes less discomfort than the amount of their disparities.

PDF is widely accepted as a standard document format and now it supports 3D contents as well. Within the engineering application areas, this new 3D feature may be used to support sharing of 3D documents and thus collaboration between engineering departments, suppliers and partners. In this paper, we describe a system that automatically generates formatted engineering documents including 3D data converted from 3D applications such as commercial 3D CAD viewer. The system consists of two major modules. One is U3D conversion module and the other is PDF conversion module. U3D conversion module extracts geometry, view data, assembly and disassembly information from 3D viewer and converts to U3D format, currently in IDTF text file format. PDF conversion module generates a PDF file and inserts U3D data, various annotation information, and scripts for custom generated operations such as assembly and disassembly in the PDF document.

The goal of a simulator is to provide for the testing of new technologies and to facilitate the eventual transfer of these technologies to the applications. In the Development Step, Simulation can provide a cost effective alternative to expensive and hazardous field testing. In this paper, a 3D simulator is developed to test UUV navigation system bated on RVC model. The simulation system consists of a environment manager, objects and a 3D viewer. Objects are modeling all physical elements such as map, obstacle and UUV which reside in a underwater environment. Those objects are created and initialized by environment manager. The environment manager plays the role of intermediator which allows created objects to interact with each other, and transmits information on the objects to 3D viewer. The 3D viewer analyzes the received information and visualizes 3D graphic by using OpenGL primitives.
