| 20100109909 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR INFORMING OF CHILDREN-PROTECTION - There are disclosed an apparatus and a method for informing of children-protection that provides a position of a child and surrounding environment information to parents of the child. The apparatus for informing of children-protection includes: a communication unit that receives user information transmitted from a user terminal; an informing information storing unit that stores terminal information corresponding to each user information; and an informing control unit that detects the terminal information corresponding to the user information received by the communication unit from the informing information storing unit and transmits position information of the user terminal to a terminal corresponding to the terminal information detected through the communication unit. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100134632 | APPARATUS FOR TRACKING AN OBJECT USING A MOVING CAMERA AND METHOD THEREOF - Provided is an apparatus for tracking an object, including: a dynamic area extracting unit that extracts an object to be tracked from an image frame collected through an image collecting apparatus; an object modeling unit that models the object to be tracked extracted through the dynamic area extracting unit to calculate the color distribution of the object to be tracked; and an object tracking unit that calculates the color distribution of a next image frame collected through the image collecting apparatus, after calculating the color distribution of the object to be tracked, and calculates a posterior probability that each pixel belongs to the object to be tracked in the next image frame based on the calculated color distribution of the next image frame and the color distribution of the object to be tracked to track the object to be tracked. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20100141607 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RECOGNIZING MULTI TOUCH POINT - The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for recognizing multi touch points. When touch input units are touched at the same time by a plurality of touch units, a plurality of sensors sense vibration signals generated from each touch point and measures intersection points from distance information of signals combined according to an input sequence to recognize positions of each touch point. The present invention can accurately recognize the coordinates of the touch points using a simple structure that the sensors are disposed at the edges of the touch input devices and thus, achieves a rapid response. In addition, with the present invention, it can recognize the coordinates of the touch points without limiting the size of the touch panel and when the touch points are generated at the same time, can accurately and rapidly recognize all the plurality of touch points. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100145695 | APPARATUS FOR CONTEXT AWARENESS AND METHOD USING THE SAME - An apparatus for context awareness includes: a voice-based recognition unit that recognizes a user's emotional state on the basis of a voice signal; a motion-based recognition unit that recognizes the user's emotional state on the basis of a motion; a position recognition unit that recognizes a location where the user is positioned; and a mergence-recognition unit that recognizes a user's context by analyzing the recognition results of the voice-based recognition unit, the motion-based recognition unit, and the position recognition unit. Accordingly, it is possible to rapidly and accurately accidents or dangerous contexts caused to a user. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100146064 | SOURCE APPARATUS, SINK APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SHARING INFORMATION THEREOF - The present invention relates to platform architecture of smart devices according to information sharing, a sink apparatus, and a source apparatus, and more specifically, to platform architecture of smart devices capable of sharing information commonly used between daily living devices and thus, providing intelligent services, a sink apparatus, and a source apparatus. The source apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention includes: a sensing unit that generates sensing data; a sharing information processing unit that generates sharable information based on the sensing data and converts the sharing information into sharing messages and transmits them to at least one sink apparatus by a wired and wireless network; and a source communication unit that notifies the sharing information from the sharing information processing unit to at least one sink apparatus through the wired or wireless network. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20110111704 | WIRELESS TERMINAL AND CONTROL METHOD FOR DIFFUSING SMELL THEREOF - The present invention relates to a wireless terminal that includes a wireless communication unit that transmits/receives wireless signals with a smell diffusion apparatus, a user interface that receives control variable values for controlling the driving of the smell diffusion apparatus, and a controller that estimates the distance between the smell diffusion apparatus and the wireless terminal using the wireless signals transmitted/received by the wireless communication unit and adjusts the control variable values input based on the estimated distance to allow smell diffusion control signals to be output, and a control method for diffusing smell thereof. With the present invention, the control variable values of the smell diffusion apparatus, such as the smell diffusion time point, smell diffusion intensity, and smell diffusion duration time, etc., are adjusted according to the distance between the smell diffusion apparatus and the wireless terminal, making it possible to provide more improved smell diffusion services depending on the user. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110136441 | PORTABLE TERMINAL AND A CONTROL METHOD OF PERIPHERAL DEVICE USING THE SAME - The present invention relates to a portable terminal and a control method of peripheral device using the same. The plurality of peripheral devices adjacent to a portable terminal are searched, the locations of the plurality of searched peripheral devices are measured, a control parameterle value is set to at least one control parameterle for each of the plurality of peripheral devices according to location information of the plurality of peripheral devices, and a control signal including the set control parameterle value is generated and transmitted to a corresponding peripheral device. According to the present invention, in controlling a plurality of adjacent peripheral devices using a portable terminal, the control parameterle values for controlling the individual peripheral devices are changed according to the distances and directions of the plurality of peripheral devices from the portable terminal. Therefore, it is possible to provide customized services optimized on the basis of the location of a user. | 06-09-2011 |
