Virtual reality technology can be defined as human-computer interface that makes virtual place of specific environments or situation is an interactive computer-generated experience taking place within a simulated environment. In order to combine virtual reality technology of domestic nuclear power industry, the R&D Project has been developing a virtual/augment reality system for nuclear power plant from April 2018 to March 2021. To effectively apply virtual reality technology of domestic nuclear industry, it is necessary to build virtual space similar to real environment. Therefore, This study is analysed 3d model status for nuclear power plant during the life-cycle, and suggested a method to build 3D cad model close to real environment.

In this research, we design and develop an app that can be run on multiple platforms and easily realize augmented reality. It works on PC and mobile (Android, iOS) in cross platform and users want to lower the barriers to entry of augmented reality by allowing users to select the marker to be augmented reality coordinates and the model to be implemented within the app. The app consists of Unity 3D engine and ARToolkit, an open source augmented reality SDK. Unity 3D integrates UI, markers and objects, and is used as the main engine for cross-platform development. This paper presents the design and production method of the augmented reality application and explains the use examples.

오늘날 테마파크는 다양한 테마 적 요소들을 적용한 다양한 신기술로 무장되어있다. 사람들은 복잡한 현실 세계를 떠나 일탈을 꿈꾸며 재미와 감동, 스릴에 목마르다. 현실 세계에서는 느낄 수 없는 판타스틱한 재미와 경험은 현실 세계의 고달픔을 잠시나마 잊고 싶은 사람들의 발걸음을 테마파크로 이끌어 온다. 테마파크는 또 다른 세상(Another World)으로 사람들을 초대하는 현실 속 가상의 공간이다. 테마파크는 언제든지 찾아와 재미있는 경험을 해보고 몇 번을 찾아와도 지루하지 않은 누구나 꼭 한번 가보고 싶어 하는 매력적인 장소이다. 기존의 테마파크는 이러한 소비자의 니즈를 충족하기 위해 새롭고 신선하며 유희적인 테마를 적용한 파크를 끊임없이 개발하고 발전시켜야 한다. 본 논문은 테마파크 어트랙션발전에 유용한 장점을 가지고 있는 가상현실을 테마파크에 적용하는 방법을 제안한다.

With the increased market demand for advanced specifications in smart phones, smart phones that have functions with wireless communications with high speed, cameras with high pixel and with high graphic processing ability have appeared. Furthermore, as traditional Augmented Reality technology has been practicable in mobile devices, many application's use AR technology, so AR's portability has been increased. But application with AR technology, which was implemented in smart phones has created capacity issues as applications are taking up a large portion of the memory capacity of phones. This research designed and implemented optimized AR technology by Mixare, AR open source, to solve such problems. As a result, I assured that there has been a decrease in application's memory used on the basis of mobiles.

Information and Communications Technologies(ICT) represented by Multimedia, Virtual Reality and Network could be used as the better ways to preserve and restore the original shape of cultural contents. This paper presents the detailed methods of Multimedia and Virtual Reality technologies to digitally implement the traditional wooden buildings which are called as a typical 'Korean Cultural Content." We implemented a 3D modeling of architectural parts, realized a roof curve, and texture-mapped the material qualities of traditional wooden buildings by using Graphic techniques. In addition, the information, which is implemented by marker-based Augment Reality, for the traditional wooden buildings can be obtained through the mobile appliances such as a smart phone. We, also, presented how to practically use the implemented digital Korea traditional wooden buildings.

A robotic spatial augmented reality (RSAR) system combines a robotics technology with a spatial augmented reality system (SAR) where cameras are used to recognize real objects and projectors augment information and user interface directly on the surface of the recognized objects, rather than relying on handheld display devices. Moreover, a robotic module is actively used to discover and utilize the context of users and environments. The control of a RSAR system involves several issues from different technical fields such as classical inverse kinematics of motors where projector-camera pairs are mounted, inverse projection problems to find appropriate internal/external parameters of projectors and cameras, and image warping in graphics pipeline to compensate the kinematic constraints. In this paper, we investigate various control issues related to a RSAR system and propose basic approaches to handle them, specially focused on the prototype RSAR system developed in ETRI.

Purpose: This study examined the effects of a virtual reality-based exercise program on the functional recovery of balance and gait in chronic stroke subjects. Methods: A total of 42 chronic stroke patients were enrolled in this study. The participants were allocated randomly to 2 groups: a VR (n=22) and control group (n=20). Both groups received treadmill training for 3 sessions (10 minutes each), 30 minutes per week over a 6 week period. The VR group practiced additional virtual reality programs consisting of 3 programs for 10 minutes each. The data was analyzed using a paired t-test and independent t-test to determine the statistical significance. Results: The virtual reality-based exercise group showed significant increases in gait velocity, cadence and stride length compared to the control group (p<0.05). However, there were no significant differences in static balance. Conclusion: These results support the perceived benefits of exercise programs that incorporate virtual reality to augment the balance and ambulation of stroke patients. Therefore, virtual reality is feasible and suitable for stroke patients

In this paper, we propose CAMAR Core Platform as a framework for context-aware mobile augmented reality system development after brief introduction of limitations in the previous mobile augmented reality (AR). There have been many research activities on mobile AR due to recent enhancement of functionalities of mobile devices and development of relevant technologies to mobile augmented reality. In order to be used in ubiquitous computing environment, however, mobile AR systems should be able to utilize available contextual information, augment personalized contents, and share the augmented contents with other users. Thus, the proposed CAMAR Core Platform can provide such functionalities to those who want to develop CAMAR systems. To show the feasibility of the proposed framework, we show several applications based on the framework.

Recently, augmented reality technology has received much attention in many fields. This paper presents an augmented reality system using Rubiks' Cube which can augment various 3D objects depending on patterns of a Rubiks' cube. The system first detects a cube from an image using partitional clustering and strongly connected graph. Thereafter, the system detects the top side of the cube and finds a proper pattern to determine which object should be augmented. An object corresponding to the pattern is finally augmented according to the camera viewpoint. Experimental results show that the proposed system successfully augments various virtual objects in real time.
