The Korean R&D institute is looking for global partnerships with whom it can cooperate in commercializing a user-data analysis based VR(Virtual Reality) analysis solution under technical cooperation and research cooperation

VR (Virtual Reality) technology has been widely used in various application areas ranging from entertainment such as game, movie to education, medical, manufacturing industry. However, it is found that VR users can experience severe fatigue and symptoms of motion sickness, which is referred to as cyber sickness. It is a serious obstacle of such technology and growth of the VR market. Various companies and research institutes are currently developing the solutions to predict and reduce VR-sickness but there is no practical, systematic solution yet. A Korean R&D institute focusing on ICT Bio-healthcare has developed highly reliable VR sickness monitoring and analysis technology combining with the elements of VR contents based on the data extracted from large-scale clinical data of more than 500 people. The technology is approved by international standard, IEEE-SA WG 3079 in 2020. The functions performed by the technology as below. 1) Select a section to predict the level of sickness in VR video 2) Predict the level of sickness quantitatively within the selected section 3) Visualise the graph of sickness level with a real value (0~5) 4) Save and load the data of sickness prediction The technology has been developed as a Unity Plug-in, meaning that VR developers can use the software for VR contents creating immediately. A Korean game company has been already launched new VR game using the technology. Any companies, research institutes or universities creating VR contents or providing VR services in entertainment, sports, education, medical, healthcare or defense industry can improve their VR contents to be more acceptable to users. Also, the Korean R&D institute is interested in applying joint R&D programme (e.g. EUREKA, EUROSTARS) to upgrade the software speed and system optimization, etc.
