Abstract:
An electronic device, a related mobile device, and control methods thereof are provided. The electronic device includes a transceiver, a switch unit including switching circuitry, and a controller. The transceiver includes a first antenna having first directionality toward a first directional area, a second antenna having second directionality toward a second directional area, and a third antenna having omni-directionality in all directions. The switching circuitry selectively activates or deactivates each antenna. The controller controls the switching circuitry to deactivate the third antenna and activate the second antenna when a first event occurs in connection with a mobile device located in the first directional area during omnidirectional communication through the third antenna.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a technology related to a Sensor Network, Machine to Machine (M2M), Machine Type Communication (MTC), and Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure is applied to intelligent services, based on the technology, for example, smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smart cars or connected cars, health care, digital education, retail business, security, safety-related services, or the like. In accordance with an example aspect of the present disclosure, a method of displaying augmented reality content in an electronic device is provided. The method includes: receiving sensor data from a specific sensor node outside the electronic device; obtaining image information from an image taking unit comprising imaging circuitry such as, for example, and without limitation, a camera, camcorder or the like, configured to generate image information; generating augmented reality content based on the sensor data and the image information; and displaying the augmented reality content.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a sensor network and Internet of Things (IoT) as applied to intelligent services based technologies such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services.An apparatus and method for controlling an electronic device through a mesh network of such electronic devices are provided. In a method for controlling an electronic device, a terminal transmits to the electronic device, a terminal identifier for authenticating the terminal and information for authenticating a user of the terminal. If authentication of the terminal is successfully completed, the terminal transmits control information containing at least one service identifier classified according to service types to the electronic device. The control information is transmitted to another electronic device, based on the service identifier, through a network in which the electronic device is connected to another electronic device.
Abstract:
An electronic apparatus for communicating with a camera, and a method thereof are disclosed. The electronic apparatus includes a display, a transceiver, and a processor to, based on receiving an image captured by a camera, control the display to display the captured image, identify an object from the displayed image, determine another camera which captures the object, match information on the other camera with information on the camera, store the information, based on receiving a user command to set a specific object as a tracking target, determine a camera which captures the specific object, based on the specific object disappearing from an image captured by the camera, as the specific object moves, determine another camera which is expected to capture the specific object based on the camera matching information, and track the specific object based on an image captured by the other camera.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for scheduling power transfer of a plurality of power supplies under the control of a power management device is provided. A scheduling method of a power management device for use in in a wireless charging system includes receiving status information from at least one power supply, scheduling power transfer to the at least one power supply based on the status information, and transferring power to the at least one power supply wirelessly based on the scheduling result.
