Fetal 3D Avatar Creation for Pregnant Women

Evaluation of Fetal Realization Service Using Fetal 3D Avatar Creation and Health Care Application for Pregnant Women

• Pregnant women can intuitively check the shape and development of the fetus through the 3D avatar that reflects the characteristics of the fetus. Through a survey on VR fetal experience content and 3D fetal avatar service, the satisfaction of pregnant women/guardians, the bond between the fetus and the mother, and Assess the degree of maternal anxiety.
• Evaluate whether it can be helpful in prenatal monitoring of pregnant women through the use of maternity health management applications, and improve understanding of fetal growth and development.

• This study is an extension of the prospective pilot study conducted in 2020 under the title of "Development of 3D fetal avatar generation technology and fetal experience service technology reflecting the characteristics of pregnant women". In a previous study, about 80% of the mothers who responded to the questionnaire about the similarity of the avatar's fetal face gave a positive answer. Therefore, the developed 3D avatar fetal feeling technology is expected to have a positive effect on the intimacy between the mother and the fetus. want to analyze Pre-developed VR technology is provided through randomization to mothers who have agreed to participate in the study. In addition, objective comparison of prenatal care indicators is provided to mothers who wish to participate in this study by providing a prenatal management application that can comprehensively manage blood pressure, blood sugar, diet, exercise, maternal weight, medications, and expected fetal weight. We intend to evaluate the evaluation and maternal satisfaction.
• If technology and services for simulating a fetus with a 3D fetal avatar are provided, mothers can obtain information such as the face and developmental status of the fetus specialized for their fetus through the 3D fetal avatar. In addition, providing a fetal heart rate simulation linked to the fetal heart sound improves the bond between the mother and the fetus, which can have a positive effect on health, as well as reducing depression during pregnancy and postpartum.
