Virtual Reality contents are being used as media in various fields. In order for the virtual reality contents to be realistic, the scale of the objects in the virtual reality must be the same as the actual size, and the user must feel the same size. However, even if the size of the character in the virtual reality space is made equal to the size in comparison with the size of the character in the reality, the distortion of the size can occur when the user looks at the object in the image with the HMD. In this paper, I investigate the requirements related to size in virtual reality, and try to find out what difference these requirements have in virtual reality and how the difference affects users. Experiments and surveys to compare the size of objects in virtual reality space and the size of objects in real space were conducted to investigate how scale distortion occurs at distant and near places. I hope that this paper will be a useful research for virtual reality developers.

In this paper, we proposed a deep learning based character recognition system through virtual data generation. In order to secure the learning data that takes the largest weight in supervised learning, virtual data was created. Also, after creating virtual data, data generalization was performed to cope with various data by using augmentation parameter. Finally, the learning data composition generated data by assigning various values to augmentation parameter and font parameter. Test data for measuring the character recognition performance was constructed by cropping the text area from the actual image data. The test data was augmented considering the image distortion that may occur in real environment. Deep learning algorithm uses YOLO v3 which performs detection in real time. Inference result outputs the final detection result through post-processing.

본 논문에서는 실감형 Networked Virtual Environment (NVE)의 사실성 증진을 위한 Non Player Character (NPC)의 지능적 제어 프레임워크를 제안한다. 이 프레임워크는 반응의 다양성, 실시간성 그리고 NPC의 능동성면에서 기존 게임에서 사용되는 NPC 구현 기법과 차이가 있다. 기존 NPC 제어구조의 경우, 휴먼 사용자의 행동에 따른 NPC의 반응이 일정 스크립트나 규칙에 따르기 때문에 정형적이며, 또한 NPC의 반응시간에 대한 실시간성을 고려하지 않고 있다. 또한 NPC는 휴먼 사용자의 액션에 반응하는 종속적이고 수동적인 역할만을 담당한다. 제안하는 프레임워크에서는 NPC는 각자의 취향을 가지고 있어 다양한 반응과 행동양식을 보일 수 있으며, NPC의 행동 결정 시간에 어느 정도 실시간성을 부여할 수 있으며, 또한 NPC의 역할이 수동적 형태에서 벗어나 능동적으로 계획하여 행동을 실행할 수 있다. 프레임워크의 구현을 위해 SWI-Prolog의 Rule based 추론엔진과 유전자 알고리즘을 사용하였다.

Today, many people seek for their own personal character which is distinguished from another people and they utilize fashion coordination as the was of expression their own image. In addition, interest in electronic commerce and cuber shopping mall on the internet is increasing. For this reason, visual and interesting virtual fashion coordination system is needed. The purpose of this study is to propose possibility of fashion coordination by virtual 3D model. For this study, 1. We make a 3D standard body model by automatic generation. 2. We make 3D fashion item (sleeveless top and flare skirt) by automatic generation. 3. We combine 3D body model with fashion item by special point, grouping and gap being between body and clothes. 4. We make textile palettes and textile DB for texture mapping and rendering. As a effect of this study, 1. It can give the chance to coordinate clothes suitable for their own character and bodyshape on the cuber space more speedily and variously. 2. It can help fashion internet shopping mall company can save a time, expenses and tries to advertise their new products, offer service for customers and lead customers to purchasing. 3. It can accumulate a database of design and textile for using by fashion and textile industry.

The level-of-detail (LoD), which is a method of reducing polygons on mesh, is one of the most fundamental techniques in real-time rendering. In this paper, we propose a novel level-of-detail technique applied to the virtual character's motion (Motion LoD). The movement of a virtual character can be defined as the transformation of each joint and it's relation to the mesh. The basic idea of the proposed 'Motion LoD' method is to reduce number of joints in an articulated figure and minimize the error between original and simplified motion. For the motion optimization, we propose an error estimation method and a linear system reconstructed from this error estimation for a fast optimization. The proposed motion simplification method is effectively useful for motion editing and real-time crowd animation.

In a MMORPG, a typical application of virtual environment systems, it is a common desire to play in a more realistic environment. However, it is very difficult to provide a latency-free virtual environment to a large user base, mainly due to the fact that the real environment must be configured on multiple servers rather than on single server and that data must be shared on the real server when users move from one region to another. Experiencing response delays continuously in the process of information synchronization between servers greatly deteriorates the degree of immersion. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to minimize the response delay occurring in the information synchronization process between the servers. In this paper, we propose Migration Agent for efficient information synchronization between field servers providing information of virtual environment and minimizing response delay between Field Server and PC(Player Character) and implement it in cloud computing network. In the proposed system, CPU utilization of field server increased by 6 ~ 13%, and response time decreased by 5 ~ 10 seconds over the existing system in 70,000 ~ 90,000 PCs

This paper presents characteristics of a virtual human's navigation using a limited perception-based mapping. Previous approaches to virtual human navigation have used an omniscient perception requiring full layout of a virtual environment in advance. However, these approaches have a limitation on being a fundamental solution for a human-likeness of a virtual human, because behaviors of humans are basically based on their limited perception instead of omniscient perception. In this paper, we integrated Hill's mapping algorithm with a virtual human to experiment virtual human's navigation with the limited perception. This approach does not require full layout of the virtual environment, 360-degree's field of view, and vision through walls. In addition to static objects such as buildings, we consider enemy emergence that can affect an virtual human's navigation. The enemy emergence is used as the variable on the experiment of this present research. As the number of enemies varies, the changes in arrival rate and time taken to reach the goal position were observed. The virtual human navigates by two conditions. One is to take the shortest path to the goal position, and the other is to avoid enemies when the virtual human encounters them. The acquired result indicates that the virtual human's navigation corresponds to a human cognitive process, and thus this research can be a framework for human-likeness of virtual humans.

In the virtual space in which human imagination exists, a great deal of games and animation contents have been developed and shown. Games and animations are performing a role as an unrealistic representative, and creating abundant virtual culture with variety of human life. A representative, that is, a main character is being completed with external design, unique personality and ability, and action in the story. This study is expecting that a game character might develop into motion acting for emotional situation from the simple action. As giving a game character a role as a medium to express various circumstances and emotions, choosing motions from a pantomimist and applying them to 3D character, and expressed according to the motion acting. Motion acting is extended from the basic motion into the emotional phases such as joy, anger, sorrow and pleasure. The motion acting expressed from various viewpoints is suggested, as communicating clear message through emotional acting contrary to the symbolic language.

This study analyzed factors affecting the perceived fun of VR contents' reuse intention through use of the technology acceptance mode. The factors associated with perceived fun were identified by setting the content quality, VR characteristics, emotional character and flow. The results demonstrate that perceived fun exercises a positive effect on VR characteristics, emotional character and flow, but that high content quality does not have an affect on perceived fun. Also perceived fun, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use are all influenced by the intention to reintegrate.
