Description

가상현실 트레드밀 시스템{VIRTUAL REALITY TREADMILL SYSTEM}{VIRTUAL REALITY TREADMILL SYSTEM}

본 발명은 가상현실 트레드밀 시스템에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a virtual reality treadmill system.

종래의 헤드 마운트 디스플레이를 이용한 가상현실 게임의 경우 시각 정보와 신체 움직임의 부조화로 인하여 3D 멀미를 유발할 뿐만 아니라 게임에 대한 몰입도가 감소하여 실감나는 게임을 하기 어려운 단점이 있었다. 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 사이버리스 사의 "버츄얼라이저" 또는 버츄익스 사의 "버츄익스 옴니"와 같은 가상현실용 동작 인식 컨트롤러들이 개발되었으나, 상기 동작 인식 컨트롤러들은 고가의 센서를 사용하여 사용자의 움직임을 감지하는 방식을 채택함으로써 제작 비용이 증가하는 단점이 있었다.In the case of a virtual reality game using a conventional head-mounted display, it is disadvantageous in that it causes 3D nausea due to inconsistency of visual information and body movement, and also it is difficult to realize a realistic game because the immersion degree for the game is decreased. In order to solve such a problem, motion recognition controllers for virtual reality such as "Virtualizer" of Cyberlys or "Virtueix Omni" of Virtueix Inc. have been developed. However, the motion recognition controllers use expensive sensors And the manufacturing cost is increased by adopting the detection method.

본 발명은 상기한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 본 발명의 목적은 시중에서 용이하게 구할 수 있는 부품을 사용하는 저렴한 가상현실 트레드밀 시스템을 제공하는 것이다.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an inexpensive virtual reality treadmill system using parts readily available on the market.

본 발명에 따른 가상현실 트레드밀 시스템은 사용자의 허리의 움직임에 따라 하나 이상의 기계식 스위치에 압력이 가해지면 해당 방향으로 게임 캐릭터를 이동시키도록 컴퓨터에 이동 명령을 전달하는 것을 특징으로 한다. The virtual reality treadmill system according to the present invention is characterized in that when a pressure is applied to one or more mechanical switches according to the movement of the user's waist, the virtual reality treadmill system transmits a movement command to the computer to move the game character in the corresponding direction.

본 발명에 따르면, 3D 멀미를 유발하지 않고 고가의 센서를 사용하지 않는 저렴한 가상현실 트레드밀 시스템이 제공된다. According to the present invention, there is provided an inexpensive virtual reality treadmill system that does not cause 3D nausea and does not use an expensive sensor.

이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예에 따른 동작 인식 리모트 컨트롤러에 관하여 설명한다.Hereinafter, an operation recognition remote controller according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 1은 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 가상현실 트레드밀 시스템의 사시도이다. 본 실시예에 따른 가상현실 트레드밀 시스템은 허리부, 지지부 및 바닥부의 3 부분을 포함할 수 있다. 1 is a perspective view of a virtual reality treadmill system in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The virtual reality treadmill system according to the present embodiment may include three parts: a waist portion, a support portion, and a bottom portion.

도 2를 참조하면, 상기 지지부는 사용자의 키에 맞게 높이를 조절할 수 있는 높이 조절부를 포함할 수 있다. Referring to FIG. 2, the support portion may include a height adjusting portion that can adjust a height of the support portion in accordance with a user's key.

도 3을 참조하면, 상기 허리부는 허리 회전부 및 허리 프레임의 2 부분을 포함할 수 있다. 상기 허리 회전부는 상기 허리 회전부 상에 배열되는 하나 이상의 기계식 스위치 및(또는) 상기 기계식 스위치의 신호를 컴퓨터에 전달하기 위한 무선신호 송수신부를 포함할 수 있다. 바람직하게는, 상기 허리 회전부는 상기 허리 회전부와 사용자의 허리를 연결하기 위한 하나 이상의 허리벨트, 상기 허리 회전부의 중심을 기준으로 균일하게 배열되는 하나 이상의 기계식 스위치 및(또는) 상기 기계식 스위치의 신호에 의해 컴퓨터에서 상기 기계식 스위치에 대응하는 키보드 방향키의 입력이 이루어질 수 있도록 컴퓨터에 신호를 전달하는 무선신호 송수신부를 포함할 수 있다. 바람직하게는, 상기 허리 회전부는 복수의 기계식 스위치를 포함할 수 있다. 더 바람직하게는, 상기 기계식 스위치는 8개 이상이다. Referring to FIG. 3, the waist portion may include two portions of a waist rotating portion and a waist frame.
