Abstract:
A haptic device and a display having the same are disclosed. The haptic device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention may include a first moving bar coupled to a first lateral surface of a touch sensor and a first actuator coupled to the first moving bar and configured to repeatedly move the first moving bar minutely in a direction of the first lateral surface.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for processing a textured image. The apparatus includes a filter unit for detecting an edge of an input image and transforming the input image into an image in which a density of the edge is represented; a smoothing unit for removing noise from the transformed image and smoothing the image; a clustering unit for changing a number of regions into which the smoothed image is to be segmented and clustering the smoothed image a preset number of times; and a cluster optimization unit for setting a final number of clusters for the input image by optimizing a number of clusters based on a previously learned ground truth, for selecting an image corresponding to the final number of clusters from results of clustering by which the image is segmented into a different number of regions, and for outputting the selected image.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a feedback providing module, a feedback providing apparatus, and a feedback providing method. The feedback providing module includes: an upper plate part generating a vibration; a lower plate part inducing the vibration of the upper plate part; and a feedback controlling unit applying first to fourth voltages having different levels to the upper and the lower plate part in response to feedback control signals and varying the levels of the first to fourth voltages to control the upper and the lower plate part to generate at least one of a sound and a vibration.
Abstract:
A user input device and method thereof is provided. The user input device according to the present invention comprises a touch input module outputting a touch coordinate according to a touch input when there is the touch input on a touch screen region; a gesture input module outputting a gesture coordinate according to a gesture input when there is the gesture input on a predetermined spatial region corresponding to the touch screen; and a spatial convergence module adjusting at least one of the touch coordinate and the gesture coordinate based on a reference coordinate for a predetermined space by determining if the touch input and the gesture input are consecutive inputs based on the touch coordinate and the gesture coordinate.
