Abstract:
A 3-dimensional (3D) holographic image displaying apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a hologram reproducer configured to generate surface plasmons in response to incident light and reproduce a 3D image by diffracting the generated surface plasmons by a hologram, and a surface light source unit including a light source and a light guide plate, the light guide plate being configured to allow incident light from the light source to enter into the light guide plate, internally reflect the allowed light, and output the internally reflected light through a light-output surface, the surface light source unit being configured to implement colors by adjusting an angle of the light incident to the hologram reproducer so that the outputted light through the light-output surface is incident to the hologram reproducer at a surface plasmon-forming angle for each wavelength to generate the surface plasmons corresponding to a plurality of color beams.
Abstract:
A method for converting 2-dimension (2D) image into a 3-dimension (3D) image and a display apparatus. The method may include: generating a depth frame of key frames of a plurality of image frames; calculating a motion vector between the image frames; interpolating an intermediate depth frame corresponding to intermediate frames between the key frames by using the depth frame and the motion vector; and generating left and right eye images of the plurality of image frames by using the depth frame and the interpolated depth frame. Therefore, the display apparatus minimizes occurrences of errors and generates a depth frame approximate to a real depth frame

Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus for generating an image, the apparatus including a processor configured to detect at least one object near a vehicle by using a result of sensing a surrounding area of the vehicle, determine a direction and a distance from the vehicle to the detected at least one object, and generate an image of the surrounding area of the vehicle based on the determined direction and distance. Therefore, the apparatus may accurately express a shape of the object and a relative location between the vehicle and the object on a three-dimensional (3D) image of the surrounding area of a vehicle.
Abstract:
A system and a method for a transaction based on a license plate number. A method of providing data for paying for an item, performed by a mobile device, includes receiving a license plate number from a vehicle terminal through short-range wireless communication, selecting a credit card to be used to pay for an item provided in an offline store, and transmitting the received license plate number and information regarding the selected credit card to a payment server. The license plate number and the information regarding the selected credit card transmitted to the payment server are used for the payment server to authenticate the payment of the item, together with information regarding a license plate number provided from a store terminal of the offline store to the payment server.
Abstract:
An electronic device and an image conversion method of the electronic device, the electronic device comprising: a receiving unit for receiving a first image from a source device; a decoding unit for decoding brightness information of the first image; a converting unit for converting a dynamic range of the first image on the basis of the decoded brightness information, using a mapping function; and a display unit for displaying a second image having the converted dynamic range on a display, wherein the mapping function is a curve function including a plurality of points determined on the basis of the first image, a characteristic of a change in brightness of a display of the source device, and a characteristic of brightness of a scene of the first image.
