| 20090154294 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RECOGNIZING LOCATION BY USING SOUND SOURCES WITH DIFFERENT FREQUENCIES - Provided are a method and a system for recognizing a location to control the location of a moving object by installing an ultrasonic satellite transmitting an ultrasonic signal. The method includes generating a synchronizing signal at a plurality of the ultrasonic satellites. The ultrasonic satellites simultaneously transmit the ultrasonic signals respectively having different frequency from each other. A receiver of the moving object receiving the ultrasonic signal measures a distance between the receiver of the moving object and each ultrasonic satellite by classifying a frequency of the ultrasonic signal, and calculates a current location of the moving object by using the measured distance. The system includes ultrasonic satellites for transmitting ultrasonic signals, a moving object for recognizing a current location by receiving the ultrasonic signals from the ultrasonic satellites, a reference time broadcasting device for providing a synchronizing signal to the ultrasonic satellites and the moving object in operation, and a server for providing coordinates of the ultrasonic satellites to the moving object. | 06-18-2009 |
| 20100158353 | METHOD FOR RESTORATION OF BUILDING STRUCTURE USING INFINITY HOMOGRAPHIES CALCULATED BASED ON PARALLELOGRAMS - A method for restoration of building structure using infinity homographies calculated based on parallelograms includes: calculating, using two or more parallelograms, an infinity homography between those cameras which refer to an arbitrary camera; restoring cameras and the building structure on an affine space using the computed infinity homography and homologous points between images; and transforming the restored result onto the metric space using constraints on orthogonality of vectors joining the restored three-dimensional points, the ratio of lengths of the vectors and intrinsic camera parameters. As a result, intrinsic camera parameters, camera positions on the metric space and the structure of the building are restored. All the restoration is possible even when intrinsic camera parameters corresponding to all the images are not constant. | 06-24-2010 |

| 20090293204 | Washing machine and method of washing drum - Disclosed are a washing machine and a method of controlling the same. The washing machine includes a drum; a washing device to spray water to perform washing of an outer surface of the drum; and a control unit controlling the washing of the outer surface of the drum such that the washing of the outer surface of the drum is performed during a washing or rinsing cycle. The washing machine does not need to be disassembled to wash the drum and tub and thus is easily washed and has the ribs extended in a same direction of an extension direction of the flange shaft to increase the strength of the flange shaft and thus forms channels of water flowing on the flange shaft and reduces the remaining of contaminants on the flange shaft in the washing or rinsing cycle to enhance the washability of the flange shaft. | 12-03-2009 |
| 20100000574 | CONTROL METHOD OF WASHING MACHINE - A control method of a washing machine is capable of safely achieving a tub washing operation control with low power consumption. At the time of performing tub washing, water of which the amount is decided depending on a volume inside a drum and a volume inside a water tub is supplied to the water tub, and the rotation speed of the drum is controlled to be inversely proportional to the volume of the supplied water, thereby efficiently controlling a tub washing operation with low power consumption. Also, the rotation state of the drum is controlled, at the time of performing the tub washing, to maintain the temperature of a motor or a printed circuit board (PCB) to be a predetermined level or less, thereby safely controlling a tub washing operation with low power consumption. In addition, it is determined whether the revolutions per minute (RPM) of the drum rotating at the tub washing operation belong to a resonance band, and the RPM are controlled such that the RPM deviate from the resonance band, thereby achieving a tub washing operation procedure with small noise and vibration. | 01-07-2010 |
