Abstract:
A user input apparatus and method may measure, using a first sensor, surface input information that is applied to a surface of a user input apparatus, may measure, using a second sensor, orientation information that is input based on a physical quantity associated with a pose or a rotary motion of the user input apparatus, and may generate a content control signal by combining the surface input information and the orientation information.
Abstract:
A key generating method includes obtaining a first error correcting code (ECC) for original data, obtaining read data from a cell array of a memory comprising the original data, generating a second ECC for the read data, obtaining a location of a cell in which an error occurs from the cell array of the memory in response to the second ECC being different from the first ECC, and generating a key for the memory based on the location of the cell in which the error occurs.
Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus and method for controlling a vibration transfer between vibration devices. The apparatus for controlling a vibration transfer may change vibration values of a plurality of vibration devices according to a movement of a virtual vibration body, thereby providing a user with a sense of touch of a movement of the virtual vibration body.
Abstract:
An image sensing apparatus sensing a user input and an operating method of the image sensing apparatus are disclosed, in which the image sensing apparatus may include an optical source operating based on a burst mode including a turn-on cycle and a turn-off cycle, and an image sensor configured to receive a reflected light using a pixel array and output sensing data of a position of an object in a target area in the reflected light.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a device and a method for providing tactile sensation by using electrostatic force between an electrode and a user. The device for providing tactile sensation includes a plurality of electrodes arranged on a substrate, and a dielectric substance layer formed on the substrate and the electrodes, wherein the electrodes electrify the dielectric substance layer with an electric charge according to a driving voltage, so as to generate electrostatic force that provides tactile stimuli to a user who comes into contact with the dielectric substance layer.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for recognizing a touch gesture are disclosed, in which the apparatus may obtain a depth image in which a touch object and a background area are captured, detect a touch input applied by the touch object to the background area in a touch detection area, and recognize a touch gesture associated with the touch input by tracking a change in the touch input.
Abstract:
An image sensor for simultaneously obtaining an image and a proximity is provided. The image sensor includes a proximity signal generating circuit configured to generate a proximity signal of a target based on a pixel signal of a pixel array. The proximity signal generating circuit generates the proximity signal based on an average of pixel signals output from a plurality of pixels included in the pixel array.
Abstract:
Provided are a mobile robot and a method of driving the same. A method in which the mobile robot moves along with a user includes photographing surroundings of the mobile robot, detecting the user from an image captured by the photographing, tracking a location of the user within the image as the user moves, predicting a movement direction of the user, based on a last location of the user within the image, when the tracking of the location of the user is stopped, and determining a traveling path of the mobile robot, based on the predicted movement direction of the user.
Abstract:
An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes a camera, a Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) sensor, and a processor configured to track an object based on a plurality of images photographed by the camera sequentially, wherein, to track the object based on the plurality of images, the processor is configured to, based on the object being identified in a first image from among a plurality of images and subsequently, not being identified in a second image after the first image, control a photographing direction of the camera based on scanning information obtained by the LiDAR sensor.
