Digital simulation which was introduced to the architectural field due to the rapid growth of computer graphics, gave birth to a new type of contents called 'virtual reality', led by the interaction with the users and real time processing. The public attention is drawn to the virtual reality's potential as a next generational space simulation it, having the unique characteristics of 'simulation', 'interactivity', 'tole-presence', and 'immersion', is capable of taking a virtual tour of a space with a size equivalent to that of a real space, as well as proceeding with the design progress. Nonetheless, many problems impeding CPU's real time processing of an excessively loaded architectural model data have been pinpointed over the time. Yet such GPU based game engines as 'DirectX' and 'OpenGL', developed to deal with these impediments, have not been easily applied to the architectural simulation in the design process, due to the high license cost and the specific technical requirements for the system. The virtual reality has been developed and distributed centering around the gaming field, and game developers recently show a greater tendency to include level editors in the package for the expandability purpose. Thus, we plan to propose architecture simulation which utilizes level editors in this study. In addition, the compatibility of the game engine based level editors of Quake and Unreal which form the standards for the open source FPS games, based on VRML, the standard format for the virtual reality, was compared and analyzed. Taking the example of Villa Savoye of Le Corbusier, its application possibility as an architecture simulation was assessed, by measuring the extent to which the performance of such characteristic features of the virtual reality as interactivity, immersion, and tele-presence, was improved.

In recent years, human is experiencing an 'untact' era that has not been existed before. A remarkable features of an untact era is a limited or no interaction with other people and things in a daily life. In order to overcome this special situation, diverse state-of-the-art technologies like ICT technology are being used to give the effect of face-to-face and contact. In particular, Virtual Reality technology allows users to actively interact with virtual environments, objects, and other people, thereby providing effects that are as similar as possible to experience in real life. School freshmen are also experiencing various inconveniences because they are not experiencing the environment or academic management of newly admitted schools in the untact era. This research is a study and implementation of 'Virtual School Life Experience Content' which provides new students to tour campus, to utilize the school buildings facilities, to experience of academic schedules including course registration, and to participate in school events in an environment that is as close as possible to the real campus. Freshmen will be able to easily adapt to a new school through the implemented VR content.

The purpose at this study is to examine the nature at perceived risk associated with Internet apparel shopping and risk-reduction strategies used by Internet apparel shoppers. The data were collected via an online survey by a online research company. A total at 4,254 Internet users participated in this survey. Among these Internet users, 1,146 respondents had previous shopping experience in Internet shopping. Within this group, 195 were Internet apparel information seekers, and 589 were Internet apparel purchasers. Descriptive statistics, analysis of variance, and t-test were used to analyze the data. The perceived risks and risk-reduction strategies used by Internet apparel no-interest shoppers, Internet apparel information seekers (browsers), moderate Internet apparel purchasers, heavy Internet apparel purchasers were examined and compared. The results indicated that these tour groups were significantly different in apparel related risk, performance risk, and privacy risk. Internet purchasers tend to perceive more apparel-related, performance, and privacy risks than others. The results also indicated that these tour groups were significantly different in their opinions of risk-reduction strategies.

In this paper, we describe an outdoor augmented reality system using GPS tracking for position and attitude information. The system consist of a remote mobile operation unit and a ground operation unit. The remote mobile operation unit includes a real-time image acquiring device, a GPS tracking device, and a wireless data transceiver; the ground operation unit includes a wireless transceiver, a virtual image generating device, and an image superimposing device. The GPS tracking device for measurement of position and attitude of the remote mobile operation unit was designed by TANS Vector and RT-20 for DGPS. The wireless data transceiver was for data transmission between the remote mobile operation unit and the ground operation unit. After the remote mobile operation unit was installed on a vehicle and a helicopter, the system was evaluated to verify its validity in actual applications. It was found that the implemented system could be used for obtaining real-time remote information such as construction simulation, tour guide, broadcasting, disaster observation, or military purpose.

구형 파노라믹 영상은 영상기반의 가상현실 시스템에서 가상환경을 구축하기 위해 널리 이용되고 있다. 이러한 구형 파노라믹 영상은 카메라를 회전시켜 실세계를 촬영하고 각 영상들을 정렬(image alignment)을 거쳐 구에 사상시킴으로써 얻어진다. 실세계로부터 직업 입력된 영상을 가상환경으로 표현하기 때문에 기하학적 기반의 가상환경에 비해 현실감이 뛰어나다. 그러나 고정된 시점에서 카메라의 회전에 대해서만 가상환경의 영상이 복원 가능하므로 가상환경의 항해(navigation)에 있어서 제약을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 시점의 이동 운동에 따른 운동시차(motion parallax)를 제공하기 위해 구 파노라믹 영상의 특정 부분에 TIP(Tour Into the Picture)기법을 이용하여 spidery mesh 인터페이스를 제공하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 가상환경 저작 기술은 보다 나은 사용자 상호 작용(interaction)을 제공하는 영상기반 가상 환경 구축에 활용될 수 있다.

최근에 많이 소개되는 인터넷을 이용한 교육, 학습의 대부분은 텍스트를 기반으로 하고 이미지를 삽입하는 방식을 이용하여 이루어지고 있다. 이런 방식은 인문, 사회분야의 과목에는 충분한 효과를 기대할 수 있지만 화학, 물리 등의 자연과학 과목에는 충분한 효과를 기대하기 어렵다. 이제는 통신의 발달로 인해 네트워크 사용이 생활화됨으로써 더 이상 VRML(Virtual Reality Modeling Language)이 넷스케이프 네비게이터나 마이크로소프트 인터넷 익스플로러 같은 인터넷 브라우저상에서 3차원 오브젝트만을 보여주는 시기는 지났다. 가상 세계여행 시스템은 최근 급속도로 확장되고 있는 인터넷과 인터넷 응용기술인 VRML, XML(extensible Makeup Language)을 이용하여 아직까지 사진이나 영상으로만 볼 수 있었던 세계의 도시, 건축물에 대한 정보를 3차원으로 구성된 세계여행을 통해 현실감 있는 정보를 제공하기 위해 설계되었다. 시스템의 특징은 세계의 대도시 및 유명 건축물을 VRML과 XML을 이용하여 가상으로 구성하고, 사용자는 프로그램 내에서 자신이 선택한 아바타를 조종하여 그 도시들을 여행함으로써 가상 공간 내에서 세계여행을 할 수 있다는 것이다. 또한 사용자는 여행중인 다른 아바타와의 채팅이 가능하고 도우미 아바타에게 궁금한 점을 질문할 수도 있다.
