20090096753 | Apparatus and Method for Changing On-Screen Image Position, and Navigation System Using the Same - Provided are an apparatus and method for changing a position of an image on a screen of an image display device, such as a map provided by a navigation system or mobile phone and a broadcast program played back by a television receiver, allowing the image to be reduced, enlarged, rotated, etc. through touching the on-screen image, and to a navigation system using the apparatus and method. The apparatus includes a display, a touch sensor, and a controller. The display displays an image. The touch sensor senses touching of the image displayed on the display. The controller changes a position of the image displayed on the display in a touched direction sensed by the touch sensor. The touch sensor generates positional coordinates of a touched point of the image sensed by the touch sensor, and relays the generated positional coordinates to the controller. | 04-16-2009 |
20080228348 | METHOD FOR MANAGING VEHICLE STATE USING CAR MEDIA PLAYER AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM HAVING THEREON PROGRAM PERFORMING FUNCTION EMBODYING THE SAME - Provided is a method for managing a vehicle state using a car media player. The method includes the steps of: (a) acquiring information on states of vehicle parts from a plurality of sensors, installed in the respective vehicle parts, through a dedicated vehicle network; (b) generating vehicle management information based on the acquired information on the states of the vehicle parts; and (c) notifying information necessary for repair of the vehicle based on the vehicle management information. Information on a vehicle state is received from a dedicated vehicle network using a typical car media player, and a vehicle state management such as replacement of vehicle parts is performed based on the information on the vehicle state. Therefore, a driver can reduce a cost of installing a separate vehicle state management device and need not separately perform a vehicle state management such as replacement time of vehicle parts. A vehicle repair shop can reduce time and cost of inspecting a vehicle state, and can minimize resource waste and cost loss, which are caused by too frequent replacement of vehicle parts. Due to the timely replacement of vehicle parts, the vehicle state can be optimally managed. Thus, the risk of vehicle accidents can decrease and the life span of the vehicle can increase. | 09-18-2008 |
