Horse riding experience system using virtual reality content {System for horse riding using virtual reality content}

The present invention relates to a horseback riding experience system using virtual reality content, and more specifically, to provide users with horseback riding experience virtual reality content that allows users to experience horseback riding through virtual reality, and to provide users with horseback riding experience virtual reality content in response to the horseback riding experience virtual reality content. It relates to a horse riding experience system using virtual reality content that can provide a realistic horse riding experience by controlling the movement of the riding part of the horse riding device.

Humans began domesticating horses around 2000 BC, and horsemanship began as a sport at the 25th Ancient Olympia in 680 BC.

Since then, horseback riding has developed into a modern style in many European countries, and 'Bose' in the mid-19th century established the foundation of modern horsemanship.

In Europe, horseback riding was popular as a sport for some wealthy people, but it gradually developed into a simple modern sport, and a meeting led by eight countries, including France, to adopt horseback riding as an official event in the Olympics led to the 1912 World Equestrian Games. The unifying organization, Federation Equeste International (FEI), was founded in Paris.

Horseback riding was adopted in the Olympics at the 2nd Paris Games (1900), where an individual obstacle race was held, and at the 5th Stockholm Games in 1912, a steeplechase race and an all-around horse race were held for individuals and groups. Then, dressage competitions were added at the 9th Amsterdam Games in 1928, and from the 15th Helsinki Games in 1952, women were able to participate with equal qualifications regardless of gender.

As mentioned above, horseback riding is divided into various sports such as dressage, steeplechase, and horseback riding. In these riding sports, the rider controls the signal system and the score is based on how accurately the horse performs the movement according to the horse. It is ranked.

In this way, fundamentally, horseback riding is not a passive exercise in which the rider simply balances his body according to the horse's movement and controls his body, but rather follows the principles of the horse's regular movement through a signal system that instructs the horse. It is a sport in which the rider actively controls the horse's movements through understanding and understanding the horse's movements.

This system of signals or means by which the rider instructs the horse to control the horse's movements is called aid. For example, the horse senses the rider's intention through movement of the reins, legs, and body weight. It is to command obedience and have the horse carry out the rider's intentions.

Reliefs are natural reliefs using the rider's body such as legs, hands or fists, voice, weight or seat, and reins, whips, spurs, etc. It can be distinguished by the artificial relief used.

Through the above-mentioned relief, the rider can control various movements of the horse in addition to the general forward movement of the mounted horse. In order to accurately control the horse's movement in horseback riding, the horse must be shaped into a certain shape desired by the rider. must come first.

Taking circular motion as an example, in order to make a circle with a diameter of 10m, the horse's body must be bent sideways by 30° to complete a circle with an exact 10m diameter (at 10°, a circle with a diameter of 20m) is completed. . The principle of this exercise can be applied as an exercise like sold-in (shoulder in) by walking straight with the body bent at 30°.

In this way, the rider must first achieve a certain shape of the horse body in order to complete continuous horseback riding movements accordingly.

In addition, among equestrian sports, obstacle competitions are not just about running and jumping, but are composed of actions such as contracting the horse's body to overcome a certain height, jumping like a spring at a certain point to jump over, and landing at another certain point. First, interlacing movements in horseback riding require practice based on various mechanical calculations, such as the height and distance between a horse of a certain shape and an obstacle.

In this way, the basic principle of sports equestrian competition is that the rider controls the horse into the shape of the horse he wants and continuously changes it to create various regular movements of the horse and calculate the score to compete.

At this time, the order of multiple points or vanishing points is determined according to the accuracy of the horse's regular movement caused by the rider's assistance.

Meanwhile, if you classify the horseback riding events in detail, you can find Dressage, Jumping, Three-Day Event, Endurance, Driving, and Vaulting. ), Reining, Para-Equestrian, Cross Country, etc.

Recently, a horseback riding game system has been emerging that displays images on a screen linked to the movements of the horseback riding robot that the user rides and the horseback riding robot that operates in response to the relief spoken by the user. However, the screen is located at a distance from the user. There is a problem that providing video through video reduces the real feeling of horseback riding.
