The suggested modular projection system can have flexible arrangements of screens. Modular and continuous arrangements of the display system enable us to modify the screen configuration easily, so that the system can be used in various applications. The image of each screen is calculated automatically by using window projection and the tracked position of the viewer. This system also uses the off-axis stereoscopic projection for the seamless stereoscopic edge blending of multiple connections of screens. The system has been successfully tested for the general navigation model and the CAU driving simulator with motion platform.

가상현실 (Virtual Reality, VR) 기술은 3차원 가상공간 내에서의 높은 몰입감에 기반한 체험을 바탕으로 다양한 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 소방훈련이나 태풍, 지진 등 재해 대응훈련과 같이 인명피해의 위험이 있는 재해에 대한 VR 기술을 활용한 방재교육은 위험성을 동반하지 않으면서도 현장감에 기반한 높은 교육적 효과를 창출할 수 있다. 한국전자통신연구원에서는 VR 기술을 이용하여 소방훈련을 위한 실감 소방훈련 시뮬레이터를 개발한 바 있으며 목동재난체험관에서는 홍수, 태풍, 지진 등 다양한 재해에 대한 안전교육을 위한 자연재해 가상현실체험을 운영하고 있다. 이외에도 전국 지자체 및 교육청에서는 방재교육을 목적으로 VR 기술을 활용하고 있다. 그러나 기존의 VR을 활용한 수재해 방재교육은 범람의 수리학적 특성과 함께 수해지의 지형적 특성을 적절히 반영하지 못하는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이는 방재교육이나 경각심을 부각하는 데엔 효과적이나 실질적인 방재 가이드라인을 제시하는 데엔 한계가 있다. 본 연구는 몰입형 파랑해석모형인 Celeris Base를 기반으로 3차원 가상현실 시각화를 활용한 수리학적 홍수추적 모형을 개발하였다. 3차원 가상현실 시각화는 Unity3D를 이용하여 모의환경 내에 구현되었다. 강우-유출 과정의 수리학적 해석을 위해 동수역학 수치모형의 연속방정식 내에 강우와 침투에 대한 항을 추가하였다. 침투모형으로는 Horton 모형, Green-Ampt 모형과 함께 사면의 기울기를 고려한 Green-Ampt 모형을 적용하였다. 실제 유역에서의 홍수추적 모의결과는 관측값과 비교적 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 개발된 모형은 VR 방재교육을 통해 일반인의 수재해 대응능력 향상에 기여함과 동시에 정확성 높은 홍수추적 모의결과에 기반한 홍수대책 마련에도 활용 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

An omnidirectional VR treadmill is a highly-immersive walking simulator that allows identical body movements, such as walking, running, and sitting. However, the operation difficulty of an omnidirectional VR treadmill may cause data reliability problems. Therefore, this study aims to verify the effectiveness of a VR treadmill by comparing the ability to orient in the real and virtual worlds spatially. For this purpose, a rotating and searching path experiment was conducted with participants. This experiment showed that there was no statistically significant difference in the ability of the participants to orient in the real and virtual worlds spatially. In addition, the omnidirectional VR treadmill requires an adaptation time for the users due to the difficulty in the treadmill operation. However, there was no significant difference in the difficulty felt by the participants according to the adaptation time. Hence, these findings supported the possibility of collecting realistic walking data without safety concerns through an omnidirectional VR treadmill. Furthermore, this treadmill could be used in future research to solve problems directly related to pedestrian safety, such as the interaction between vehicles and pedestrians.

세계 각국은 자국의 문화재를 보존하기 위해 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 디지털 복원 기술을 이용하여 문화재를 영구히 보존하려는 시스템 개발 또한 그 중 하나이다. 그러나 문화재는 유형의 물체뿐만 아니라 그에 얽힌 전설과 정신 또한 중요함에도 기존의 시스템들은 형태적인 복원에 치중한 것이 대부분이었다. 본 논문에서는 예술적 상상으로 가상현실 시스템을 이용해 문화콘텐츠 개발을 위한 예술기획 기법을 설명한다. 제안된 기법은 문화원형을 선정하고, 문화적, 예술적 분석과정을 거쳐, 그 결과를 가상현실 시스템에 적용한다. 기획된 내용은 문화콘텐츠 체험 시스템에 적용되었다. 예술기획 기법은 형태적인 측면에서의 문화재뿐만 아니라 그 동안 부재되었던 정신적인 측면 또한, 과제 삼아 문화재 복원의 진정한 의미를 가상현실 시스템에 담도록 하였다.

VR and AR contents provide a rich user experience [1]. Realistic content with human computer interaction and immersion provides an improved user experience, but there is a limit to producing all elements realistically. In this study, we propose a method to advance the rendering of immersive content using background color information [2]. First, the elements necessary for Kelvin temperature rendering are derived from the color and background as context elements, and the rendering effect has been realized in the soap bubble. For soap bubbles Kelvin temperature rendering, the average color of the background is extracted and the color with the highest similarity is applied by comparing the main color and Kelvin temperature.

Since the introduction of CRT(Cathode Ray Tube) in the 1950s, display technologies have been developed continuously. Flat panel displays such as PDP(Plasma Display Panel) and LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) were commercialized in the late 1990s, and OLED(Organic Light Emitting Diodes) and Micro-LED(Micro-Light Emitting Diodes) are now being developed and are becoming widespread. In the future, we expect to develop ultra-realistic, flexible, embedded sensor displays. Ultra-realistic display can be applied to AR/VR(Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality) devices and spatial light modulators for holography. The sensor-embedded display can be applied to robots; electronic skin; and security devices, including iris recognition sensors, fingerprint recognition sensors, and tactile sensors. AR/VR technology must be developed to meet technical requirements such as viewing angle, resolution, and refresh rate. Holography requires optical modulation technology that can significantly improve resolution, viewing angle, and modulation method to enable wide-view and high-quality hologram stereoscopic images. For electronic skin, stable mass production technology, large-area arrays, and system integration technologies should be developed.

We identified the correlation between museums, gamification, and viewers based on the results of keyword correlation analysis, designing the museum gamification system. By applying gamification to the museum through big data CONCOR analysis, it was found that viewers had fun watching it through direct experiences and experiences. In this study, we propose a system that directly selects the story desired by the viewer and serves the game suitable for the theme of the museum they visited. In addition, the system proposed in this paper organized a story algorithm so that viewers can directly select the difficulty level based on the story and play personalized games. We collected existing museum information and designed to enable games of various stories suitable for the museum's theme, and based on this, it was applied to the museum gamification app. Moreover, in order to further enhance the immersion of museum viewing. We have been designed and applied based on Virtual Reality (VR).

In this study, in line with the era of the fourth industrial revolution, general concepts, technologies, trends, and examples of virtual reality and augmented reality were examined, and based on this, a plan that could be applied to libraries in the future was proposed. As a result of the study, first, it is necessary to construct a smart space as an experiential play space that can satisfy cultural desires transcending time and space by providing immersive contents using 4th technology such as VR and AR. Second, it is necessary to expand experiential cultural support services through VR, AR and MR. Third, to develop educational contents based on augmented reality technology. In order to apply and activate virtual reality and augmented reality in libraries in the future, based on a survey of librarians and users of public libraries, a survey on the application status, satisfaction, and demand of current public libraries should be conducted.

본 논문에서는 유·아동의 독서활동을 돕고자 기존에 있는 동화책과 가상현실 기술을 결합한 몰입형 동화 콘텐츠를 제안한다. VR 환경은 3D 입체 환경을 통한 중다감각적 상호작용을 가능하게 하여 학습자로부터 동기를 유발시킨다. 프로그램이 시작되면 컨트롤러가 활성화되며 동화보기, 미니게임 등 동화에 직접적으로 참여하여 즐길 수 있는 콘텐츠로, 향후 유·아동의 교육적인 면에서도 더욱 효과적일 것으로 기대된다.

With the technological development, benefits of Virtual Reality (VR) has become a key of medium in communication research. In addition, explaining human minds with physiological data has become more popular since more accurate and detailed data can be expressed. However, reading brain signals in a virtual environment setting with psychophysiological measures (e.g. EEG and fNIRS) has remained a difficulty for researchers due to a technical constraint. Since a combination of cables for brain measures attached to a head cap obstruct wearing a Head-Mounted Display (HMD) over the cap, measuring brain activities with multiple channels on several areas of the brain is inappropriate in the VR setting. Therefore, we have developed a new brain measurement cap that includes probe connectors and brackets enabling a direct connection to the HMD. We highly expect this method would contribute to cognitive psychology research measuring brain signals with new technology.
