  • Recently, public interest in virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) has increased. Therefore, computer graphics-related research has been actively conducted. This has included research on virtual space related to human posture implementation. However, such research has focused on general posture in humans. This paper presents a system with reference to the basic posture in sports climbing and the inverse kinematics method for generating the positions and behavior of virtual characteristics in a three-dimensional virtual space. The simulation based on the inverse kinematics method, produced with an inverse kinematics solver and initial pose animation from motion capture, provides realistic and natural movement. We designed a simulation system to generate correct posture and motions similar to those in sports climbing by applying the basic procedure of sports climbing. The simulation system provides help for producing content about sports climbing, such as learning programs for novice climbers and sports climbing games.

  • The purpose of this study is first, to see through the aesthetic essence of the clothing as art, through theoretical consideration of cultural feature and body style in Postmodern Feminism. Also, this study will examine the aesthetic value in artistic meaning regarding a Deformational body image in visual an. Second, this study will analysis the formative character of Modern Art to wear which expressed unfixed body style, followed by the change of Postmodern Feminity, as a Deformation image. This character will be categorized by Expansion, Grotesque, Pleasure, and Virtuality. The following is the result of this study. Expansion expressed in modern Art to wear created intentional structure of the form, and intentionally presented refusal of body existence through disembodied. Grotesque expressed refusal and deviation of women's ideal body style, which is defined by mannish discourse, very grotesquely. Pleasure pleasantly presented free emotion through an intentional transformation like distortion or imbalance of the body By paradoxically reproducing women's virtual body as other unfixed female identity was expressed visually through virtuality to embody post-gender.

  • Recently, it Is required to develop OCR(Optical Character Reader) along with the progress of the information processing system for Hangeul. Characters have to be recognized clearly so that OCR can be applied, Structure analysis method and lump method are used for the recognition of characters, and OCR is now available for the recognition of printed characters and handwritten alphanumeric characters having simple structure by them However, It is known that there should be much more study on the development of handwritten Hangout's OCR. This paper proposed a new method for the handwritten Hangout character recognition. The units of Initial consonant of Hangout are separated and then recognized from the utilization of the position- Information of Hangeul's units from the normalized patterns using the regression line theory. It is carried out for the extraction of the block which exists in the virtual Initial consonant region from the normalized input patterns and the calculation on maximum value (${\beta}$) of likelihood after comparing the features of separated subpattern with the initial consonant dictionary.

  • The purpose of this research is to study methods for performing transition that have visual representation of corresponding animations with no bounce in subsequently recognized user information when attempting to interact with a virtual 3D character in real-time using user motion. If the transitions of the animation are needed owing to a variety of external environments, continuous recognition of user information is required to correspond to the motion. The proposed method includes linear interpolation of the transition using cross-fades and blending techniques. The normalized playing time of the source animation was utilized for automatically calculating the transition interpolation length of the target animation and also as the criteria in selecting the crossfades and blending techniques. In particular, in the case of blending, the weighting value based on the degree of similarity between two animations is used as a blending parameter. Accordingly, transitions for visually excellent animation are performed on interactive holographic projection systems.

  • MMORPG enables thousands of players to play in an evolving virtual world at the same time over the internet. So, the load of this kind of games is heavier than that of any other precedents. One of load balancing methods is map-partition to divide the load of entire system which is vulnerable to delay message between clients and servers. In this paper, we propose a game architecture using MigAgent to help migration of player character between field servers and to reduce message traffic between clients and field servers.

  • We introduce an instant and intuitive shadowing technique for CACAni System. In traditional 2D Anime, since all frames are drawn by hand it takes long time to create an entire animation sequence. CACAni System reduces such a production cost by automatic inbetweening and coloring. In this paper, we develop a shadowing technique that enables CACAni users to easily create shadow for character or object in the image. The only inputs required are sequences of character or object layers drawn in CACAni System with alpha value. Shadows are automatically rendered on a virtual plane based on these inputs. They can then be edited by CACAni users. Achieving this, CACAni System is able to handle instant shadowing and intuitive editing in a short time.

  • 본 논문에서는 사용자의 다양한 물리적 속성 중 부드러운 헤비사이드 계단 함수와 다양한 물리적 속성(속도, 시점 등)을 활용하여 가중치 맵을 계산하고 이로부터 논플레이어 캐릭터(Non-player character, NPC)의 경로를 효율적으로 제어할 수 있는 NavMesh 제어 기법을 제시한다. 게임과 같은 가상환경에서 NPC는 일반적으로 네비게이션 메쉬(Navigation mesh, NavMesh)를 이용하여 이동한다. 하지만, NavMesh는 정적인 형태이기 때문에 사용자에 의해 디자인되어야 하고, 이러한 문제를 완화하고자 자동으로 NavMesh를 업데이트하는 기술이 연구되고 있지만, 메쉬 복원을 자동화할 뿐 실제 NPC 행동 제어라고 하기에는 힘든 접근법이다. 본 논문에서는 동적 네비게이션 프레임워크를 유지한 채, 사용자의 시점과 물리적 특성을 통해 NPC를 효율적이고 정확하게 경로 제어할 수 있는 방법을 제안하고, NavMesh의 형태에만 의존하던 NPC의 움직임을 완화하여 좀 더 사실적인 경로 제어를 보여준다.
