1. A virtual reality control system comprising:
a large space;
a head-mounted display (HMD) worn on a body of a user and configured to output an image;
a tracking device disposed on at least a part of the body of the user;
a plurality of optical camera sensors disposed in the large space; and
a server which stores content information on a specified scenario,
wherein the server:
acquires first location information on a first user on the basis of first sensor data on the HMD, which is acquired through the plurality of optical camera sensors;
acquires first virtual location information indicating a virtual location of a first character corresponding to the first user based on the first location information;
acquires second location information on at least a part of a body of the first user on the basis of second sensor data on the tracking device, which is acquired through the plurality of optical camera sensors;
acquires second virtual location information indicating a virtual location of at least a part of the first character's body based on the second location information;
determines whether an area corresponding to the second virtual location information among a plurality of divided location areas for at least the part of the body of the first user, which are capable of being formed based on the first virtual location information corresponds to a preset correction target area;
changes at least a portion of the second virtual location information on the basis of the area corresponding to the second virtual location information being the correction target area;
acquires content modification information based on the first virtual location information and the modified second virtual location information; and
controls the HMD to output an image of the first character based on the content change information,
wherein the first character displayed based on the second virtual location information and the first character displayed based on the changed virtual location information are distinguishable.
