    Abstract: Provided is a walking supporting apparatus for supporting a user walking by using a multi-sensor signal processing system that detects a walking intent. A palm sensor unit detects a force applied to a palm through a stick to generate a palm sensor signal. A sensor unit detects a force applied to a sole through the ground to generate a sole sensor signal. A portable information processing unit checks a user's walking intent by using the palm sensor signal, and if it is checked that the user has a walking intent, the portable information processing unit generates a driving signal in response to the sole sensor signal. A walking supporting mechanism includes a left motor attached to a user's left leg and a right motor attached to a user's right leg to support the user's walking when the left and right motors are driven in response to the driving signal.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for recognizing a gesture in an image processing system. In the apparatus, an input unit receives an image obtained by capturing a gesture of a user using a camera. A detector detects a face area in the input image, and detects a hand area in gesture search areas. The gesture search areas being set by dividing the image into predetermined areas with reference to a predetermined location of the detected face area. A controller sets the gesture search areas, determines whether a gesture occurs in the detected hand area, and selects a detection area with respect to the gesture to generate a control command for controlling an image device. A calculator calculates skin-color information and differential-area information for checking a gesture in the detected hand area. Accordingly, a hand area can be accurately detected, and a gesture can be separated from peripheral movement information, so that mal-functioning caused by gesture recognition can be reduced.
