This study is about the VR controller that can provide an enhanced experience in VR by augmenting the sense of weight. In this study, the method of changing the center of gravity of the controller was used as a means of transmitting the sense of weight. The experiment was carried out with a device that could change the center of gravity to find the minimum distance at which people can perceive the difference in weight. The results showed that the weight difference between the two stimuli can be perceived at a distance of about 5 cm regardless of the position of the starting stimulus.

본 논문에서는 스마트 홈 환경에서 사용자의 컨텍스트를 사용하여 상황에 적합한 서비스를 제어할 수 있는 ubiController를 제안한다. 기존의 시스템에서는 서비스마다 개별적인 제어기가 사용되었기 때문에 서비스 전환 시 사용자에게 불편함을 초래하였다. 이런 문제를 개선한 통합 제어기에서도 사용자의 상황을 고려하지 않은 획일적인 인터페이스만이 제공되었다. ubiController는 홈 환경의 서비스를 발견할 수 있는 서비스 디스커버리 기능, 다양한 서비스를 제어할 수 있는 통합 제어 기능, 직관적이고 시각적인 GUI, 그리고 사용자의 행동과 위치 정보의 활용을 통해 적합한 서비스를 제어 메뉴 형태로 재구성한다. 제안된 시스템은 스마트 홈 테스트베드인 ubiHome에서 상황에 적합한 서비스 제어 메뉴를 생성하고 해당 서비스를 제어하는데 사용된다. 이러한 시스템을 통해 사용자는 스마트 홈이나 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에 편재하는 수 많은 서비스 중에서, 관련있는 서비스를 보다 쉽고 빠르게 접근하여 제어할 수 있다.

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.

This study compares hand-based interfaces to improve a user's virtual reality (VR) presence by enhancing user immersion in VR interactions. To provide an immersive experience, in which users can more directly control the virtual environment and objects within that environment using their hands and, to simultaneously minimize the device burden on users using immersive VR systems, we designed two experimental interfaces (hand motion recognition sensor- and controller-based interactions). Hand motion recognition sensor-based interaction reflects accurate hand movements, direct gestures, and motion representations in the virtual environment, and it does not require using a device in addition to the VR head mounted display (HMD). Controller-based interaction designs a generalized interface that maps the gesture to the controller's key for easy access to the controller provided with the VR HMD. The comparative experiments in this study confirm the convenience and intuitiveness of VR interactions using the user's hand.

User interface/experience and realistic game manipulation play an important role in virtual reality first-person-shooting game. This paper presents an intuitive hands-free interface of gaming interaction scheme for FPS based on user's gesture recognition and VR controller. We focus on conventional interface of VR FPS interaction, and design the player interaction wearing head mounted display with two motion controllers; leap motion to handle low-level physics interaction and VIVE tracker to control movement of the player joints in the VR world. The FPS prototype system shows that the design interface helps to enjoy playing immersive FPS and gives players a new gaming experience.

The development of Virtual Reality (VR)-related technologies has resulted in the improved performance of VR devices as well as affordable price arrangements, granting many users easy access to VR technology. VR drawing applications are not complicated for users and are also highly mature, being used for education, performances, and more. For controller-based spatial drawing interfaces, the user's drawing interface becomes constrained by the controller. This study proposes hand interaction based spatial drawing system where the user, who has never used the controller before, can intuitively use the drawing application by mounting LEAP Motion at the front of the Head Mounted Display (HMD). This traces the motion of the user's hand in front of the HMD to draw curved surfaces in virtual environments.

With the development of new technologies, virtual reality (VR) is emerging as a new consumer marketing platform. Yet, only a few studies have investigated VR in the consumption context. The current research explores how experiencing a product through VR influences consumer attitude and purchase intention for the product. Although assessing products in real life is believed to be more diagnostic than that through VR, the present research revealed that experiencing a product through VR could lead to a more positive attitude toward and higher purchase intention for the product. We also demonstrated that "enjoyment" has a mediating effect while evaluating the product through VR. To compare product experience through VR to that in real life, we employed the HTC Vive VR system to implement a VR environment. In the VR condition, participants evaluated plastic building blocks using a VR headset and a motion controller; and in the real life (reality) condition, they evaluted plastic building blocks printed using a 3D printer to make them look exactly the same as the blocks used in the VR condition. Finally, implications and suggestions are discussed.

Currently the bottleneck in virtual reality's commercialization might be that high cost VR equipment is needed and interesting VR contents are not enough. The purpose of this paper is to solve these problems by implementing low-cost VR system with wireless controller and HMD(Head Mounted Display) using a smart phone and PC. The functions of real HMD are simulated by utilizing the display and embedded sensors of a smart phone. In that situation PC is in charge of processing huge data and is communicated with smart phone. And wireless controller is designed to make VR user's movement to be free. In addition, we made the several VR contents for testing our prototype system directly. Easy access to VR equipment could induce increasing number of users and investment. And it will be a big step toward improving VR technology and its commercialization.

Instead of extracting every selected harmonic component, the current reference of selective active power filter (APF) can be also obtained by filtering out the fundamental component from distorted load current for computation efficiency. This type of mixed current reference contains kinds of harmonic components and easily involves noises. In this condition, selective harmonic compensation must be realized by the current controller. With regard that selectivity is the most significant feature of controller, this paper presents specific comparison analysis between two types of resonant controllers: proportional-resonant (PR) controller and vector-resonant (VR) controller. The comparison analysis covers the relations, performances, and stability of both controllers. Analysis results conclude that the poorer selectivity of the PR controller could be relatively improved, but limitations from system stability make the improvement hardly realized. By contrast, the VR controller exhibits excellent selectivity and is more suitable for selective APF with mixed current reference. Experimental results from laboratory prototype validate the reasonability of analysis. And the features of each resonant controller are concluded.
