This study investigated the academic stress and the immersion in learning in relation to AR and VR assisted instructions compared to traditional approaches. To that end, 78 $8^{th}$ graders in T and S city in Gangwondo were assigned to experimental and control groups. The experimental group received the VR and AR lessons. The academic stress was measured with the pre- and post-test scores, while the immersion in learning was measured with the post-test scores. In brief, AR and VR assisted lessons made statistically significant differences in the academic stress and immersion in learning in comparison to the traditional approaches.

Due to the development of science and technology and the emergence of new industries, the environmental change of the digital contents industry is rapidly progressing. The scope of technological development in the digital contents industry is affecting not only the entertainment industry but also various industries. Recently, with the development of digital convergence using realistic content, games, video, and VR have provided new opportunities for the growth of the content industry. The researcher determined that a new education system would need to be changed as the digital contents industry developed. For this purpose, an AHP questionnaire was conducted for experts with a high basic understanding of the education platform based on previous studies. We proposed a platform model for human resource development as an education system that meets the demand of digital contents industry. The education system for nurturing talents needed by future society should include elements that can interest the learning of users. The platform should not be approached from a system point of view, but should be developed from the content and user's point of view, considering the platform's original purpose.

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.

최근 VR(Virtual Reality)와 AR(Augmented Reality)의 발전에 따라 영상 또는 이미지에서 카메라와 물체 사이의 거리를 추정하는 기술에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 카메라와 물체 사이의 거리 추정 방법 중에서 단일 카메라를 이용하여 촬영한 이미지의 흐림 정도를 분석하여 3D 거리를 추정하는 알고리즘을 연구한다. 특히 고가의 렌즈가 장착된 DSLR 카메라가 아닌 스마트폰 카메라 이미지에서 DFD를 이용한 거리 추정 방법 중 1개의 이미지를 이용한 3D 거리 추정 방법과 초점이 서로 다른 2개의 이미지를 결합하여 3D 거리를 추정하는 방법을 연구하고 최적회된 피사체 범위에 대해 연구하였다. 한 개의 이미지를 이용한 거리 추정에서는 카메라의 초점 거리를 200 mm로 설정할 때, 두 개의 이미지를 이용한 거리 추정에서는 두 이미지의 초점 거리를 각각 150 mm, 250 mm로 설정했을 때 가장 넓은 거리 추정 범위를 갖는다. 또한, 두 거리 추정 방법 모두 초점 거리가 가까울수록 가까운 물체의 거리 추정에 효율적인 것으로 나타났다.

Innovative and advanced technologies, including robots, augmented reality, virtual reality, the Internet of Things, and wearable medical equipment, have largely emerged as a result of the rapid evolution of modern society. For these applications, pressure monitoring is essential and pressure sensors have attracted considerable interest. To improve the sensor performance, several new designs of pressure sensors have been researched based on resistive, capacitive, piezoelectric, optical, and triboelectric types. In particular, optical pressure sensors have been actively studied owing to their advantages, such as robustness to noise and remote sensing capability. Herein, a review of recent research on optical pressure sensors with self-powered sensing, remote sensing, high spatial resolution, and multimodal sensing capabilities is presented from the viewpoints of design, fabrication, and signal processing.

This study aims to suggest the future direction of the metaverse by looking at the cases of metaverse being produced. As a result, metabuses will grow as they are connected to the real-world economy, society, and culture. For example, if real estate prices in the real world rise, digital real estate prices in metabuses also rise. In the future, through the connection between the metaverse and the metaverse, the boundary between countries will be broken down and the global village will be connected as one.

Air-writing recognition is relevant in areas such as natural human-computer interaction, augmented reality, and virtual reality. A trajectory is the most natural way to represent air writing. We analyze the recognition accuracy of words written in air considering five features, namely, writing direction, curvature, trajectory, orthocenter, and ellipsoid, as well as different parameters of a hidden Markov model classifier. Experiments were performed on two representative datasets, whose sample trajectories were collected using a Leap Motion Controller from a fingertip performing air writing. Dataset D₁ contains 840 English words from 21 classes, and dataset D₂ contains 1600 English words from 40 classes. A genetic algorithm was combined with a hidden Markov model classifier to obtain the best subset of features. Combination ftrajectory, orthocenter, writing direction, curvatureg provided the best feature set, achieving recognition accuracies on datasets D₁ and D₂ of 98.81% and 83.58%, respectively.

본 논문에서는 예비유아교사를 위한 VR·AR 활용한 수업 모형에 관한 연구이다. 최근 4차산업혁명시대를 맞아 유아교육 분야에서 디지털교육 등 다양한 기술을 활용한 활동에 관한 요구는 많이 있으나 예비유아교사 및 유아에게 새로운 IT기술을 활용하여 누리과정 연계 및 놀이중심 활동을 적용하는 데에는 많은 어려움이 있다. 왜냐하면 최신 기술을 유아들의 활동에 접목하려면 IT 기술 이해와 경험 뿐 만 아니라 유아에 대한 발달수준, 누리과정에 대한 이해, 놀이중심 교육과정 등에 대한 심도있는 융합이 필요하기 때문이다. 따라서 본 연구에서 VR·AR 활용한 수업 모형으로 예비유아교사를 교육함과 동시에 이를 통해 유아들에게 다양한 체험과 놀이가 가능한 활동을 제안하고자 한다. 이는 최신 멀티미디어기술로써 VR·AR 활용하므로 예비유아교사 및 유아들에게 융복합적인 교육효과를 줄 수 있으므로 유아교육분야에 기여하는 바가 크다.

Technologies that are considered to be a part of the fourth industrial revolution include holograms, augmented reality, and virtual reality. As technology advances, the industry's scale is growing quickly as well. While the development of technology for direct use is moving slowly, awareness of floating holograms-which are considered realistic content-is growing as the industry's scale and rate of technological advancement continue to accelerate. Specifically, holograms that have been incorporated into museums and exhibition spaces are static forms of content that viewers gaze at inertly. Additionally, their use in educational fields is very passive and has a low rate of utilization. Therefore, in order to improve usability from the viewpoint of viewers of realistic content, such as exhibition halls or museums, we introduce realistic content control technology in this study using a machine learning framework to recognize hands. It is anticipated that using the study's findings, manipulating realistic content independently will enhance comprehension of objects presented as realistic content and boost its applicability in the industrial and educational domains.
