| 20110068115 | MEDICATION SUPPORTING APPARATUS AND METHOD - Provided are a medication supporting apparatus and method. In the medication supporting apparatus, a storage section stores a strip of dosage bags that are continuously connected. A carrier section carries the dosage bag strip in the storage section. A sensor section generates a detection signal detecting a position of the dosage bag strip on the carrier section. A circuit section determines the position of the dosage bag strip according to the detection signal of the sensor section, and controls the carrier section. The dosage bag strip packed in continuous dosage bags is recognized in a unit of one dosage bag, is adjusted to a start position thereof, and is dispensed by a size of one dosage bag, so that the dosage bag strip can be accurately dispensed. | 03-24-2011 |
| 20110147403 | MEDICINE STORAGE MODULE AND METHOD - Provided are a medicine storage module and method. The medicine storage module includes medicine storage boxes, each of which stores medicine in a unit of a dosage, a medicine storage box cartridge storing the medicine storage boxes in a stacked fashion, and a discharge module discharging a lowermost one of the medicine storage boxes of the medicine storage box cartridge to an outside according to a medicine discharge instruction of a user.

| 20100303436 | VIDEO PROCESSING SYSTEM, VIDEO PROCESSING METHOD, AND VIDEO TRANSFER METHOD - A video processing system is provided. The video processing system includes: a camera that compresses a captured video and provides the compressed video; a video preparation unit including a playback server that decodes a moving picture compression stream transmitted from the camera and a video processor that processes a video decoded by the playback server; and a display device that displays a video prepared and provided by the video preparation unit. Accordingly, a video captured and compressed by a camera is prepared by decoding, and the video is configured with various output conditions so as to be displayed on a display device. This, in comparison with the convention method in which a required video is decoded and displayed whenever a video display condition changes, the required video can be rapidly displayed within a short period of time, and videos captured by a plurality of cameras can be displayed on one image on a real time basis while maintaining a maximum frame rate of the cameras without restriction of the number of cameras. Therefore, there is an advantage in that a specific video can be zoomed in, zoomed out, or panned on a real time basis at the request of a user, thereby improving a usage rate and an operation response of the video processing system. | 12-02-2010 |
