사이버멀미란 가상현실을 경험할 때 발생하는 멀미와 유사한 증상으로 눈의 피로, 방향감각 상실, 메스꺼움 등을 동반한다. 사이버멀미는 가상현실 산업의 확산을 위한 선결 과제로 여겨지고 있으며, 해당 증상을 완화하기 위한 다양한 연구가 시도되어 왔다. 그러나 아직까지 사이버멀미의 발생 기전과 해결책에 관한 명확한 결론은 도출되지 못하였다. 본 논문은 사이버멀미 현상을 보다 입체적으로 이해하기 위해 해당 현상을 관통하는 주요 구성 요소인 사이버멀미의 유발 원인, 인간의 인지체계, 사이버멀미의 측정 방법을 연결한 통합적 관점을 제시하였다. 특히 현재까지 알려진 사이버멀미의 유발 원인을 콘텐츠, 하드웨어, 사용자 특성 측면으로 새로이 분류하였다. 또한 사이버멀미 관련 요인에 대한 기존의 연구를 콘텐츠의 가상현실 충실도 관점에서 해석하여 상이한 연구 사이의 일관성을 도출하였다. 마지막으로 사이버멀미를 정량화하기 위한 객관적, 주관적 측정 도구를 살펴보고 각각의 한계점에 대해 논의하였다.

Providing safety training to construction workers is essential to reduce safety accidents at the construction site. With the prosperity of visualization technologies, Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) has been adopted for construction safety training by providing interactive learning experiences in a virtual environment. Previous research efforts on IVR-based training have found that the level of fidelity of interaction between real and virtual worlds is one of the important factors contributing to the sense of presence that would affect training performance. Various interactive devices that link activities between real and virtual worlds have been applied in IVR-based training, ranging from existing computer input devices (e.g., keyboard, mouse, joystick, etc.) to specially designed devices such as high-end VR simulators. However, the need for high-fidelity interactive devices may hinder the applicability of IVR-based training as they would be more expensive than IVR headsets. In this regard, this study aims to understand the impact of the level of fidelity of interactive devices in the sense of presence in a virtual environment and the training performance during IVR-based forklift safety training. We conducted a comparative study by recruiting sixty participants, splitting them into two groups, and then providing different interactive devices such as a keyboard for a low fidelity group and a steering wheel and pedals for a high-fidelity group. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of the sense of presence and task performance. These results indicate that the use of low-fidelity interactive devices would be acceptable for IVR-based safety training as safety training focuses on delivering safety knowledge, and thus would be different from skill transferring training that may need more realistic interaction between real and virtual worlds.

This study evaluated the effect of simulation training on cardiac arrest in hospitals for inactive nurses with 360 VR content, and attempted to prepare basic data for simulation training for inactiv nurses in the future. The design of this study is an experiment study before and after a single group. The study period was from October 13, 2020 to December 17, 2020. The subjects of the study were a total of 21 nurses who participated in the education program for inactive nurses. For simulation training for inactive nurses, Microsoft Powerpoint, hybrid simulation, high-fidelity simulation, and 360 VR content were applied for theories education and practical education. As a result of the study, the satisfaction level of the curriculum for the cardiac arrest situation in the hospital for inactive nurses was 4.78±0.36 points out of 5 points. Understanding of education was 4.71±0.46 points out of 5 points. Usefulness of education was 4.80±0.40 points out of 5 points. Confidence in airway maintenance before and after training, BLS review, manual defibrillator, emergency medication administration, airway maintenance, emergency situation simulation, and debriefing were all significant. According to the results of this study, simulation training of the situation of cardiac arrest in the hospitals for inactive nurses was effective. In future studies, it will be necessary to develope and verify specific teaching and learning methods by applying various cases of cardiac arrest situations in consideration of the type of hospitals.

The system performance of Engineered Safety Features is of utmost importance in a nuclear power plant. The human performance is identified as most critical to assurance of the optimal operability of safety systems during an emergency. The aim of this study is to determine how the performance of safety system could be evaluated using Augmented Reality technology. The paper presents a description of how a systems engineered approach could be used to develop the necessary operating conditions needed to conduct this measurement. Augmented Virtual Reality (AVR) interface technology is achieving ease of availability and widespread use in many applications today as illustrated by the launch of several AR and VR devices aimed at media consumption. As such, environments that incorporate such AVR hardware have become invaluable tools in designing human interface systems because of the high fidelity and intuitive response to natural human interaction that can be achieved [2]. The outcome of the measurement undertaken is to determine whether 1.) Operator(s) performance can be enhanced by introducing an improved cognitive method of monitoring plant information during an Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP) and 2.) In correlation, inform the performance of the diverse safety systems on the basis of human factors.

본 연구는 가상현실 안전교육 콘텐츠의 기획과 제작에 참고할 수 있도록 내용 구성 단계별 인터랙션 디자인 특성을 도출하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 선행연구를 토대로 VR 안전교육 콘텐츠 구성의 특성과 VR 사용자 인터페이스의 분류, 인터랙션 유형, 인터랙션 방식, 인터랙션 구성 요소들의 관계를 정리하여 인터페이스의 관계 분석 틀을 제시하였으며, VR안전교육 콘텐츠 사례 분석을 통해 비상 상황 대응절차 지식의 습득, 사고 상황 체험 학습 그리고 내용의 확인 및 평가의 세 가지 구성단계에서 각각 다음과 같은 상호작용 디자인 특징을 가지고 있음을 확인하였다. 첫째, 학습자 체험단계에서 교육 핵심 체험을 강조하기 위하여 행위 충실도를 높이고 일반적이고 반복적인 행동은 간략하게 축소하여 체험의 질을 조절하는 것이 드러났다. 둘째, 학습자가 생소한 환경에서 안전 행동 절차에 대한 정보 습득을 위하여 주요 상호작용 대상물을 쉽게 인지할 수 있도록 공간UI나 화살표나 상징을 활용한 기표, 행위를 구체적으로 지시하는 게시글 및 다감각 신호를 활용하여 사용자 체험 자유도를 낮추는 방식으로 필수 행위를 강조하고 인지적 인터랙션을 위한 비사실적 방식 인터랙션 비중이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 체험의 확인과 평가 단계에서 사고 상황 후 신체손상 등의 부정적 경험을 은유적으로 경험하도록 하는 메타UI를 활용하고 3인칭 시점이나 반복재생의 방식으로 학습자의 체험을 객관적 시각으로 환기하는 것이 활용되었다. 또한 이러한 특성과 관련하여 인터랙션 차원에 따른 요소들의 관계를 도출하여 제시하였다.
