Description

Apparatus and method for providing virtual fairs through virtual reality}

The present invention relates to a virtual reality technology, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method for providing a virtual fair through virtual reality.

Virtual reality (VR) refers to a specific environment or situation, or the technology itself, which is similar to the reality created by artificial technology using a computer, but is not real. At this time, the created virtual (imaginary) environment or situation stimulates the five senses of the user and allows them to experience the spatial and temporal experiences similar to the real, freely moving in and out of the boundary between reality and imagination. In addition, the user can not only immerse himself in the virtual reality, but also interact with things implemented in the virtual reality, such as applying operations or commands using a real device. In addition, virtual reality is distinguished from unilaterally implemented simulation in that it can interact with users and create user experiences. Examples of virtual reality systems that can be easily imagined are flight training simulations and games like Second Life, which are expressed in 3D and can reflect the will of the user. The AR/VR market is already a multi-billion dollar market and is expected to continue to grow well beyond the $120 billion market in the next few years.

Elements necessary to describe virtual reality are three-dimensional spatiality, real-time interaction, and immersion. 3D spatiality is to input physical activities and commands in the real space into a computer to create a virtual space that allows users to experience experiences that are as close as possible to the interactions that the user can feel in the physical space. It means the element needed to output to space. The elements necessary for realizing a 3D space include a computer, a keyboard, a joystick, a mouse, a voice detector, and data to output it in real time, and through these devices, the user can be more immersed in virtual reality.
