Recently as a result of covid 19, it has emphasis on the importance of non-contact. VR content has been attracting attention as an alternative to visual arts, media art, new media exhibitions and performances with limited offline activities. Although interest in 360 VR video contents such as VR contents for exhibitions and performances is increasing, research on immersion and satisfaction is focused on games and animation VR contents. In this paper, it verified the effect of the difference in the position and height of the VR camera in exhibitions and performances on the user's presence and satisfaction. For this experiment, the presence and satisfaction were measured after experiencing the VR contents of the convergence exhibition and performance filmed at different locations and heights. As a result of the experiment, the difference of VR camera's position had a significant effect on presence and satisfaction, the difference of VR camera's height had a significant effect only Realistic immersion of the presence.

This study explores the feasibility and potential of using virtual reality (VR) technology to enhance the museum viewing experience through digital media. In an increasingly digital world, museums face the challenge of adapting to changing visitor expectations. This study explores the integration of virtual reality and digital media as a means to engage, educate, and attract museum visitors in a novel, immersive way. By analyzing its advantages, challenges, and practical implications, this study aims to elucidate the feasibility of this transformative approach.

With the advancement of technology, there are almost no constraints on expression in virtual reality (VR) art; however, it still has some limitations. VR artists can be largely classified into two groups in terms of style. The first group is artists who create their works as a live performance. In this case, a major limitation is that the artist cannot see how the audience reacts to the work because he/she wears a VR device while performing, and the audience cannot fully experience the work, since they view it only on-screen without any VR devices. This problem can be solved if all members of the audience wear VR devices; however, that requires astronomical costs and brings about another problem related to device management. If the price of VR devices decreases as technology develops, it may help solve this problem. The second group is exhibition artists who regularly display their works online. In this case, the limitation is that their work using VR remains only in the virtual digital space. In this case, a solution may be creating space in exhibition halls, and providing VR devices to audience members in existing art exhibitions.

가상현실은 실감형 콘텐츠를 제작하는 대표적인 분야로 교육, 엔터테인먼트, 의료, 국방, 항공 등 다양한 분야에서 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 보여주고 있어 주목을 받고 있다. 가상현실을 이용한 예술전시는 디지털 미디어를 극대화한 형태라 할 수 있어 최근에 가상현실 전시회로써 다양한 콘텐츠의 구현이 가능하다. 본 연구는 관람객에게 HMD를 이용한 미디어 가상전시를 경험하게 하고 작가의 의도와 보여주고자 하는 시나리오의 의미가 잘 전달될 수 있도록 하는 방법론을 제안한다. 제안한 방법에 의해 콘텐츠를 개발하는데 있어 체험의 몰입도를 높이기 위해 실제 크기의 3D 모델링을 진행하였고, 범프맵(bump map), 노말맵(normal map)과 큰 해상도의 텍스쳐를 제작하여 사용함으로 대중(관람객들)에게 하여금 현실의 오브젝트와 차이점을 느끼지 못하도록 구현 한다.

This paper presents a novel 360-degree video streaming system for large-scale immersive displays and its ongoing implementation. Recent VR systems aim to provide a service for a single viewer on HMD. However, the proposed 360-degree video streaming system enables multiple viewers to explore immersive contents on a large-scale immersive display. The proposed 360-degree video streaming system is being developed in 3 research phases, with the final goal of providing 6DoF. Currently, the phase 1: implementation of the 3DoF 360-degree video streaming system prototype is finished. The implemented prototype employs subpicture-based viewport-dependent streaming technique, and it achieved bit-rate saving of about 80% and decoding speed up of 543% compared to the conventional viewport-independent streaming technique. Additionally, this paper demonstrated the implemented prototype on UCSB AlloSphere, the large-scale instrument for immersive media art exhibition.

The history of design has been closely related with the development of technology. The digital revolution requires design to be as innovative and inventive as the Industrial Revolution had been. In the current society demanding innovation and a new role for design, a successful result can be obtained in the interrelationship between digital and physical environments. In this point of view, exhibition design as a part of space design has had the method of analogue virtual reality, which induces spectators' experiences by creating a virtual environment, as its main expression means before digital technology was introduced. This method was developed from plane images or models to picture techniques according to the development of media technology. Nowadays, the exhibition method introducing multimedia, which enables interactions, is being developed. The main purpose of this study is to identify the meaning and role of virtual space in the view of space design and to analyze its functional interaction. Through this, it attempts to actively promote organic integration and development of widely used cyber space and traditional space design.

Special theaters were created to provide a sense of immersion and spectacles due to differentiated screens, sound, seating facilities, and advanced services, and also expanded screens. The purpose of this study is to perform comparative analysis of the technical characteristics formats shown in special theaters(3D film, 4DX, IMAX, ScreenX, and VR) in order to identify and find ways to overcome the technological limitations in production. The various formats show differences in field of view depending on the exhibition technology and these differences affect the mise-en-scene, narrative, and editing of the film and consequently result in changes in the production environment and process. Therefore, directors and creators must understand the technological features and limitations of the new formats before making their approach. However, a new format encounters limitations on production sets due to the decline of technical education and succession. In situations where shooting with a special camera is essential, the particular characteristics of each format should be carefully considered from the planning stage but financial problems arise due to increase in production period and cost. To overcome these various obstacles, it is essential to first identify problems and present alternatives through in-depth research on the production set of each format. Finally, this research aims to explore the prototype of each format and analyze the current state of production technology with formats that have not been adapted to the market trends by combining with the other formats and showing that they can survive in new ways.
