Abstract:
A scent visualization system may comprise a display apparatus for generating a target image including a target object; an olfactory sensor for detecting a scent; and a scent visualization apparatus for generating target associative visualization information that reminds the scent from the target image received from the display apparatus and sensing information received from the olfactory sensor, and generating an associative image by combining the target associative visualization information and the target image. Therefore, a low-cost, high-efficiency, high-utilization, and high-convenience scent visualization system can be provided.
Abstract:
An optical flow accelerator includes a face recognizing unit to recognize a face from a stereo image provided the optical flow accelerator. A depth information calculation unit calculates depth information of the recognized face on a basis of the recognized face. A face tracking unit tracks a size and a shape of the face depending on a movement direction when the recognized face moves. A controller controls generates depth information of the recognized face depending on an optical flow.
Abstract:
Provided are an apparatus and method for providing a virtual augmented reality using a scent projector, the method including: analyzing an input virtual augmented reality media related sound to extract an amplitude and a frequency of the sound at a predetermined interval of time; converting the amplitude of the sound into an odor concentration signal; converting the frequency of the sound into an odor quality signal; and controlling the scent projector to emit a scent in response to the odor concentration signal and the odor quality signal.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for sensing pressure using an optical waveguide sensor. The apparatus for sensing pressure using an optical waveguide sensor, includes: a light source radiating light; an optical waveguide panel emitting some of the radiated light outside through a plurality of light transmitting regions previously formed, and changing an amount of totally reflected light according to pressure applied to at least one of the plurality of light transmitting regions; a detector detecting the amount of light; and an analyzer determining intensity and a location of the pressure according to the detected amount of light.
Abstract:
A sensory substitution method includes obtaining a color image by using a sensor device, converting color information about the color image, received from the sensor device, into tactile information by using a user terminal, and generating a tactile stimulus corresponding to the tactile information received from the user terminal by using a tactile output device.
