| 20090149201 | Apparatus and method for providing position information of wireless terminal - An apparatus and method for providing position information of a wireless terminal are provided. The apparatus map-matches a position estimated using a wireless signal received from a satellite or a base station to output the map-matched result when a reception state of the wireless signal is good, and map-matches a position detected by dead reckoning to output the map-matched result when the reception state of the wireless signal is not good, thereby enabling a user to correctly detect the position of the wireless terminal regardless of the reception state of the wireless signal received from the satellite or the base station. | 06-11-2009 |
| 20090167966 | See-through display apparatus and method thereof - A see-through display apparatus and a method thereof are provided. The see-through display apparatus includes: a screen which changes its transparency by varying its light scattering properties; a projector which projects an image onto the screen; and a control unit which controls a change of transparency of the screen. Accordingly, an image can be clearly displayed on the screen by controlling light scattering and non-scattering states of the screen, and also a user can monitor the external environment through the screen. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20090192708 | Method and system for estimating step length pedestrian navigation system - A method and system for estimating a step length in a pedestrian navigation system is provided. The method of estimating a step length in a pedestrian navigation system includes calculating a walking frequency and an acceleration variance of a pedestrian by using acceleration data acquired from an acceleration sensor, calculating a walking distance of the pedestrian by using GPS data acquired from a GPS receiver, and estimating a step length of the pedestrian by using the calculated walking frequency, acceleration variance, and walking distance. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20090212999 | Apparatus and method of correcting moving direction of pedestrian - Provided are an apparatus and a method of correcting a moving direction of a pedestrian, which can estimate a pedestrian location accurately by correcting error components that are included in a moving direction angle, detected by a terrestrial magnetism sensor. The apparatus for correcting a pedestrian moving direction, including a signal receiving unit which estimates a pedestrian location using a satellite signal from a satellite, a sensor unit which detects a first moving direction angle using a terrestrial magnetism sensor, and a control unit which calculates a second moving direction angle using a pedestrian location estimated by using a satellite signal of good reception quality and corrects the first moving direction angle detected by the terrestrial magnetism sensor by using the calculated second moving direction angle. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20100146461 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND DISPLAYING METHOD THEREOF - An electronic apparatus and a displaying method thereof are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a sensor which senses user information, and a controller which reads out item information based on the sensed user information, determines a display method of item content corresponding to the read-out item information, and controls the item content to be displayed in the determined display method. Accordingly, actual goods are displayed along with information regarding the actual goods so that the user can realize a displayed image as actual goods and can easily obtain goods information. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100161409 | APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING CONTENT ACCORDING TO USER'S INTEREST IN CONTENT AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING CONTENT ACCORDING TO USER'S INTEREST IN CONTENT - An apparatus for providing content based on user's interest and a method for providing content based on user's interest are provided. The apparatus for providing content generates content differently according to the user's interest in content and outputs the generated content. Accordingly, more specialized content are provided to a user interested in the currently displayed content. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100253695 | DISPLAY METHOD FOR DETERMINING ATTRIBUTE OF IMAGE TO BE PROJECTED, ACCORDING TO USER'S MANIPULATION ON IMAGE PROJECTION SCREEN, AND DISPLAY APPARATUS USING THE SAME - A display method for determining an attribute of an image to be projected, according to a manipulation performed by a user on an image projection surface, and a display apparatus using the display method are provided. The display method includes determining an attribute of an image to be projected, according to a manipulation performed by a user on a predetermined object onto which the image is to be projected. Therefore, it is possible to set and/or change the attribute of the image, such as the location and size of a projected image, more conveniently and intuitively. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20100268538 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND VOICE RECOGNITION METHOD FOR THE SAME - Disclosed are an electronic apparatus and a voice recognition method for the same. The voice recognition method for the electronic apparatus includes: receiving an input voice of a user; determining characteristics of the user; and recognizing the input voice based on the determined characteristics of the user. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20110050840 | APPARATUS, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VIDEO CALL - Provided are an apparatus, system and method for facilitating a video call between a first caller and a second caller, the apparatus including: an image sensor which captures an image of the first caller; a display which displays an image of the second caller; a microphone which captures audio input by the first caller; a speaker which plays audio input by the second caller; a detector which is operable to determine a location of the first caller; and a controller which controls the detector to determine the location as corresponding to an original location, wherein if the first caller changes from the original location to a new location, the controller controls the detector to determine the location as being the new location and controls the microphone to readjust based on the determined new location of the first caller. | 03-03-2011 |
