The best way to express space effectively on internet is to use 3D VR(Virtual Reality) contents. But it is too difficult to control the 3D VR space with the 2D device. So the content makers cannot solve this problem easily. Besides they define the UI control in their own subjective way which makes the users confused. The purpose of this study is to present the grounds for the Control UI standardization by studying the deriving improvement direction. First of all, we categorize current control UI designs for space-VR on web service by controlling method features into three Types. Next we itemize the main improvement direction that is based on our analysis. First, the UI design that maintains for a typical 2D Input Device method to help the beginner users. Secondly, the concise UI that allows users to Immerse easily in VR. Thirdly, the control level construction that satisfies both users who are skillful at 3D games and users who have little experience with these devices. In this way, we propose the most suitable control UI model that satisfies these improvement directions. We expect the result of our study to serve as an important basis for the standardization of VR services.

Real-time 360 VR (Virtual Reality) stereo image acquisition technique based on game engine was proposed. However, GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) resource is not fully utilized due to bottlenecks. In this paper, we propose an improved GPU scheduling technique to solve the bottleneck of the existing technique and measure the performance of the proposed technique using the sample games of the commercial game engine. As a result, proposed technique showed an improvement of performance up to 70% and usage of GPU resources more evenly compared existing technique.

With the development of media technology, virtual reality (VR) technology is widely used in education, medical care, aerospace, entertainment and other fields. Among them, application in teaching courseware is a relatively new topic. Compared with traditional coursewares, virtual games visualized and extruded abstract teaching contents. Thus it strengthened teaching effects and expanded dimensions of learning. We hypothesized that virtual coursewares could increase users'sense of presence and enhance their focus. In this study, virtual courseswares were compared with traditional coursewares. At the same time, its feasibility and advantages of application were analyzed through literature researching, practical researching and statistical analysis from questionnaires. Furthermore, we designed a teaching system for VR coursewares and explored its performance in multidimensional and contextual teaching situations. It was found that Virtual coursewares have changed the boring traditional teaching methods. The teaching content was displayed in the form of three-dimensional images, videos and sounds through VR equipment, which effectively improved teaching efficiency. In addition, the feasibility of virtual courseware was demonstrated through factor analysis in questionnaires. Compared with traditional teaching courseware, VR coursewares can attract students' attention and improve learning efficiency. It provides a good example and is valuable for the research of virtual realities in education.

In this paper, we present a VR-based interface method which provides users more natural, realistic, and interactive communication and collaboration tool. Since most services in the communication systems matches with the services in the real world, the best understanding would be achieved when the communication services are represented in accordance with the services in the real world. However, conventional text-based interface and 2D GUI cannot provide such reality to the users. In this paper, we discuss VR-based interface to overcome such difficulty and introduce one instance of communication system using the VR-based realistic, what we call Virtual Village, which we are currently developing. This application might be applied to education in virtual space, desktop conferencing system, and entertainment such as MUD or the games in the distributed environment, etc.

오큘러스의 대중화 선언 이후로 일반인들에게도 가상현실(VR, Virtual Reality)에 대한 많은 관심을 불러일으켰다. 국내에서도 VR산업에 많은 투자를 하고 있으며, 현실감이 부족한 점을 보안하기 위해 웨어러블을 적용한 실감현 콘텐츠를 제작하고자 하였다. 사람의 움직임을 적외선 센서와 자이로 센서로 인식하고 측정된 센서값을 아두이노와 라즈베리파이를 이용하여 디바이스 입력신호로 처리값을 블루투스 통신으로 디바이스에 전송하여 작동한다. 기존에 없던 웨어러블(wearable) 컨트롤러로 현실감 있는 리얼한 게임을 제공한다.

As the paradigm of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is expanding, VR devices and their contents industry are drawing more and more attention as the digital devices of the next generation. Of the realms of VR contents, $360^{\circ}$ 3D videos are receiving the most attention in the field of media, and they are being utilized by Google as educational contents. As such, this research analyzes actual condition of use and motivation of using corresponding contents through survey of $360^{\circ}$ 3D video users. Results show that the most utilized platform is Youtube, and the genres which the respondents have used or are willing to use turned out to be Games and Movies.

Horseback riding, shooting, golf and other sports that make up the visuals, the background graphics in the game is an important factor influencing the outcome. But they need to play directly from the site is limited, and sports simulation games and the realistic representation of real-time operation since the fall of the background. In this paper, to overcome the limitations in the field for the game by converting pictures 3d graphic modeling. z-depth by using a special technique for expressing the perspective of the analysis of the sport and VR (virtual reality) simulation to study the background to the development. In this study, background realistic VR implementation of sport Journal of Sports Science and will contribute to the development.

In this paper, VR game was produced to inform the danger of using smartphone while walking and to raise awareness. In this VR games, you can experience Smombie (smart phone and zombie compound word) like a real situation by using Google card board and Bluetooth controller. Designed as a directions game of everyday material, the user indirectly experiences the dangerous situations that may actually occur in everyday life. In the virtual space, you can see the map on the smartphone, navigate the route, and send text messages using the controller during the game. We will explain how to implement smartphone map and send text message using controller which are the main functions of VR game.

The virtual reality (VR) is an immerging technology used in the serious games industry to treat psychological disorders like dementia. We created a system named as Virtual Reality Home (VRH) for the elderly who lived with Alzheimer's disease (or other form of dementia) and cognitive impairment using virtual reality technology. The purpose of our study is to measure the long-time immersion and retention of VRH on the moods and apathy, enhancement in physical and brain stimulation as well as a decision making with peoples of dementia and explore the experience of aged care home staff's member. The VRH shows a positive impact on the elderly participants and staff members. During the VRH experience, excitement and a great level of alertness were observed among the participants but few of them were feeling anxiety. Furthermore, we observed the improvement in physical, memory and brain stimulation, but the participants have a low focus on decision making because they wanted to explore all interactable objects in the VRH. This study suggests that the VR may have the potential to improve the quality of life, and these results can assist to expand the future development in the enhancement of efficiency of people with dementia.

In this paper, we use VR technologies including touch processing technologies and haptic devices to offer touch of fish objects to users. The Omni, a kind of haptic device and made by Sensable Inc., is used to implement multi touch model in VR space. In addition, Matlab/Simulink and proSENSE Virtual Touch Toolbox of Handshake Inc., are used as programing tools. Functions needed to describe the movement of x, y, and z axis respectively are applied to delineate the natural movement of fish objects modeled with 3D. Such movements offer realistic physical interactions to two users controlling multi point respectively. In experiment, to perceive the appearance of 3D object by touch and to feel the respiration by touch are well conducted. We also verify that it is possible to develop games or contents through multi participation in VR Space by using multi point.
