Abstract:
An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes a camera; a memory configured to store at least one instruction; and at least one processor configured to execute the at least one instruction to: detect at least one object included in an image captured by the camera; identify information on an engagement of each of the at least one object with the electronic apparatus; obtain gesture information of each of the at least one object; obtain a target object from among the at least one object based on an operation status of the electronic apparatus, the information on the engagement of each of the at least one object, and the obtained gesture information of each of the at least one object; identify a function corresponding to gesture information of the target object; and execute the identified function.
Abstract:
An authentication method includes projecting a near infrared (NIR) ray using a light emitting diode (LED) of a terminal, receiving a light reflected by a vein of a user using an image sensor of the terminal, verifying whether an image generated using the received light exhibits a vein pattern, in response to the image generated using the received light being verified as exhibiting the vein pattern, generating a vein pattern of the vein based on an image generated using the received light, and in response to the generated vein pattern being determined to match a pre-stored vein pattern, authenticating the user as a registered user corresponding to the pre-stored vein pattern.
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:
A portable device for outputting virtual vibration is provided. The portable device includes a controller configured to generate a control signal corresponding to a detected event. The portable device also includes vibrators configured to output virtual vibration based on the control signal.
Abstract:
A portable device and user input method of the portable device using a virtual input area is provided. The portable device may include a sensor configured to sense a user input to an input area, the input area being at least a portion of an area adjacent to the portable device, a determiner configured to determine a target object corresponding to the user input among at least one input object displayed on the portable device, based on an arrangement of the at least one input object, and a controller configured to generate a control command to control the target object.
Abstract:
Provided is a method and device for displaying a virtual object that detects a main marker and a sub marker included in a reference device, identify the sub marker based on the main marker, and display a virtual object on a display device based on a relative position between the display device and the reference device calculated based on the main marker and the sub marker.
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 method and apparatus for authenticating a user using a vein pattern are provided that project a near infrared (NIR) ray toward a skin of the user using a light emitting diode (LED), where the user is adjacent to a terminal including the LED. An image sensor receives a light reflected by the skin, generates a vein pattern of the skin based on an image generated using the received light, and authenticates the user as a registered user of a pre-stored vein pattern when the generated vein pattern matches the pre-stored vein pattern.
Abstract:
Provided are method and apparatus of defining at least a portion of a vicinity area of a portable device as an input area and controlling the portable device based on a user input provided on the input area, and the portable device enabling the method, wherein the portable device includes a sensing unit configured to sense a user input in a vicinity area of the portable device, a recognizer configured to recognize a user gesture corresponding to the user input, and an output unit configured to output a control instruction corresponding to the recognized user gesture to control the portable device.
Abstract:
A tactile feedback apparatus may include: a touch display configured to display objects; a tactile information extractor configured to extract tactile information corresponding to an object touched by a touch input tool; a tactile information changing unit configured to change the tactile information based on sensing information of the touch input tool; and/or a tactile feedback provider configured to provide the touch input tool with tactile feedback based on the tactile information.
