Haptic systems have been widely used for both virtual reality and augmented reality application including game, entertainment, education and medical sectors. Clothing designers and retailers initiated using AR and VR technologies to help the consumers find style with the perfect fit. Most of the developed augmented reality shopping is implemented by overlapping the image of the clothes on the customer so that he/she can find the fit. However, those are only visual information and the customer cannot experience the real size and the stiffness of the clothes. In this paper, we present the haptic upper garment which provides the haptic feedback to the user using cables. By controlling the length of the cable, the size of the clothes is set and by stiffness control, the compliance of the fabric is implemented. The haptic garment is modeled for precise control and the distributed controller architecture is described. With the haptic upper garment, the user's experience of the virtual clothes is greatly enhanced.

Most of virtual reality systems ask users to control 3D objects or to navigate 3D world using 3D controllers. To maximize the human performance in the control, the design of virtual reality system and its input and output devices should be optimized. In this study, an experiment was designed to investigate the effects of three resolution factors of a virtual reality system on the human performance. Six subjects conducted the experiment for the factors; two frame rates, three spatial resolutions, and three pictorial contents. The result showed that the greater the spatial resolution was, the higher the human performance was. For the temporal resolution, fixed frame rate at 18 Hz was better than the varied maximized frame rate. For the pictorial contents, the virtual space with orientation cues marked the greatest performance than the other two conditions; the virtual space without any orientation cue and the virtual space like real world. These results could be applied for the design of virtual reality systems.

Digital media technology is gradually developing with the development of convergence quaternary industrial technology and mobile devices. The combination of deep learning and augmented reality can provide more convenient and lively services through the interaction of 3D virtual images with the real world. We combine deep learning-based pose prediction with augmented reality technology. We predict the eight vertices of the bounding box of the object in the image. Using the predicted eight vertices(x,y), eight vertices(x,y,z) of 3D mesh, and the intrinsic parameter of the smartphone camera, we compute the external parameters of the camera through the PnP algorithm. We calculate the distance to the object and the degree of rotation of the object using the external parameter and apply to AR content. Our method provides services in a web environment, making it highly accessible to users and easy to maintain the system. As we provide augmented reality services using consumers' smartphone cameras, we can apply them to various business fields.

Rebar work is important in terms of cost and process of reinforced concrete construction along with formwork and concrete construction, and the quality of reinforced concrete construction has a great influence on the safety and durability of the structure. Therefore it is important to thoroughly inspect the steel reinforcement after casting the concrete because it is difficult to confirm the actual condition of the reinforcement. The purpose of this study is to develop an augmented reality system to visualize the records of bar placing work, which is increasingly utilized in the construction field. In order to improve maintenance of reinforced concrete, this study suggests a plan to effectively manage the drawing information including the structural drawing, the placing drawing, and the photographed image at the construction and inspection stage, and develop a system that utilizes augmented reality technology that can display the state of the inside of a concrete structure by superimposing it on actual environment.

In this paper, we implemented online real time strategy game using hand as the mouse in augmented reality. Also, we introduced the algorithm for detecting hand direction, finding fingertip of the index finger and counting the number of fingers for interaction between users and the virtual objects. The proposed method increases the reality of the game by combining the real world and the virtual objects. Retinex algorithm is used to remove the effect of illumination change. The implementation of the virtual reality in the online environment enables to extend the applicability of the proposed method to the areas such as online education, remote medical treatment, and mobile interactive games.

Cyber Sickness, which occurs when using Virtual Reality contents, is the most serious problem in immersive Virtual Reality contents. The purpose of this study is to identify the effects and causes of graphic environmental factors on Cyber Sickness in Virtual Reality contents. To this end, cyber sickness experiments were conducted according to the light source and material settings, which are most commonly used in graphical environmental elements. Cyber Sickness measurements were based on the Simulator Sickness Question(SSQ) tool to derive an index that causes Cyber Sickness As a result of the analysis, the smaller the surface roughness, the higher the degree of Cyber Sickness, and the smaller the surface roughness, the smoother the surface of the 3D object, and many specular reflections from the light source occurred, which was confirmed to be the cause of great Cyber Sickness.

80, 90년대의 영화에서만 보아오던 가상현실이 과학 및 컴퓨터 기술의 비약적인 발전을 바탕으로 우리에게 가까이 다가오고 있다. 다양한 가상현실 시스템 (VRML, HMD, FishTank, Wall Type, CAVE Type)의 개발과 함께 그 시스템의 발전으로 더욱 현실감 있는 가상현실 구현이 가능해지고 있다. 몰입감이 높은 가상 현실은 이로써 사람들이 일상적으로 경험하기 어려운 환경을 직접 체험하지 않고서도 그 환경에 들어와 있는 것처럼 보여주고 조작할 수 있게 해주는 것이다. 가상현실의 응용분야로는 교육, 고급 프로그래밍, 원격조작, 원격위성 표면탐사, 탐사자료 분석, 과학적 가시화(scientific visualization)등을 들 수 있다. 구체적인 예로서, 탱크 및 항공기의 조종법 훈련, 가구의 배치 설계, 수술 실습, 게임 등 다양하다. 이런 가상현실 시스템에서는 인간 참여자의 실제조작과 가상 작업공간이 하드웨어로 상호 연결된다. 이렇게 상호 연결된 하드웨어로 인간의 오감을 적절하게 자극하여 몰입감을 더하여 준다. 아직 많은 부분이 모자라지만 많은 연구와 노력으로 빠른 시간 안에 거의 인간이 느낄 수 있는 느낌을 가상현실에서도 현실과 같이 느낄 수 있을 것이다. 이 논문에서는 가상현실시스템의 기본적인 정의와 개념 그리고 종류를 알아보고 그 중에서 몰입감이 뛰어난 CAVE형의 가상현실시스템에 대하여 개념분석을 하였고 다음으로 2003년 KISTI(한국과학기술정보연구원)에서 만들어진 경복궁(문화 원형 Content)을 가상현실시스템에서 복원 과정을 Design process를 거쳐 제작되는 과정을 통해 가상현실시스템에서의 VR프로그래밍 방법과 모델링 방법을 제시하였다. 이러한 과정을 통해 몰입형 가상현실 시스템의 활용성에 대해 알아보았고 지금 시점에서 이러한 CAVE형 가상현실 시스템의 활용방안에 대하여 연구해 보았다. 끝으로 가상현실시스템을 활용한 문화재 복원 과정에서 나타난 문제점에 대하여 서술 하고 가상 현실 시스템의 활용 방안을 제시한다.
