Abstract:
An apparatus and method are provided for adjusting a touch recognition area on a touch interface. The method includes displaying an item on a screen of a terminal; sensing an approach area according to an approach of a user input object to the touch interface; determining an approach direction of the user input object, based on the approach area; and adjusting a touch recognition area of the item, based on the approach direction.
Abstract:
A method of executing an alarm with respect to a missed received call for a mobile communication terminal is provided. The method includes determining whether the mobile communication terminal is moving, and determining whether a missed received call occurs while the mobile communication terminal is moving, and executing an alarm with respect to the missed received call when it is determined that the mobile communication terminal does not move for a period of time if it is determined that the missed received call occurs while the mobile communication terminal is moving.
Abstract:
A fault diagnosis system, method, and apparatus are provided that diagnose a broken appliance and repair the broken appliance using voice communication. The method includes generating monitoring information, based on a current state of the appliance; generating first mix data by mixing the monitoring information and sound data; outputting the first mix data to a mobile communication terminal; receiving second mix data from the mobile communication terminal, when the monitoring information indicates that the appliance has a fault; extracting recovery data from the second mix data; and repairing the fault of the appliance using the recovery data.
Abstract:
A method for embedding digital information into an audio signal, is provided. The method includes dividing the digital information into low-priority data and high-priority data; dividing the audio signal into first and second signal parts; embedding at least one echo signal into the first signal part; embedding a communication signal modulated with low-priority data, which has a spectrum according to psychoacoustic analysis of the second signal part, into the second signal part; and combining the embedded first and second signal parts.

Abstract:
A portable terminal includes an apparatus for improving motion detection capability. More particularly, the apparatus improves motion detection capability by changing a motion in a normal state according to a motion state or by changing a motion detection process in the portable terminal in order to avoid motion detection capability deterioration in the portable terminal are provided. The apparatus includes a terminal state determiner that determines a motion state of the terminal by receiving sensing information for determining the motion state, and a controller that changes a motion detection process according to the portable terminal's motion state determined by the terminal state determiner.
Abstract:
Context recognition methods and apparatus are provided for an application processor and a micro control unit. It is determined whether an operation switch condition for switching to a sleep mode is satisfied. A request for execution of a context recognition function is sent to a micro control unit, when the operation switch condition is satisfied. The application processor switches to the sleep mode, when the context recognition function is executed by the micro control unit. The micro control unit collects sensor data at previously stored time intervals, and previously stored state information is updated based on the sensor data.
Abstract:
A wireless connection method between a plurality of electronic devices using an out of band channel is provided. The wireless connection method includes receiving a first hash value through the out of band channel, receiving device identification information of electronic devices in proximity to an electronic device through a main wireless channel, calculating hash values of the device identification information, and performing a wireless connection of the electronic device with a surrounding electronic device that has the hash value identical to the first hash value among the calculated hash values.
Abstract:
An electronic device, method, and non-transitory computer readable storage medium for sending a multimedia file are provided. The electronic device includes a memory for storing instructions; and a processor configured to execute the instructions to at least: based on user input for sending the multimedia file towards an external device being received, send address information of the electronic device and file information of the multimedia file towards the external device through a near field communication (NFC) circuit of the electronic device, activate a short-range communication circuit of the electronic device based on the address information and the file information of the multimedia file being sent; based on a connection request from the external device being received, connect the electronic device to the external device through the short-range communication circuit; and send, through the short range communication circuit, the multimedia file towards the external device.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus provides a service using a sensor and image recognition in a portable terminal that supports Augmented Reality (AR). The method includes determining whether the portable terminal is parallel to ground using an acceleration sensor. When the portable terminal is parallel to the ground, either a map including nearby Point Of Interest (POI) information or constellation information is displayed.
