Provided are a human recognition apparatus and a human recognition method identifying a user based on a walking pattern. The human recognition apparatus includes a detecting unit detecting a vibration according to a user's walking, and outputting an electric signal, a pattern calculating unit acquiring a walker's walking pattern from the electric signal, and a user determining unit comparing the walking pattern with a previously measured reference data by user and identifying the user based on the comparison result. The human recognition apparatus and the human recognition method are robust against peripheral noise and can increase an acceptance rate through a simple structure and procedure by using the waling pattern, which is one-dimensional time information requiring no vast data throughput, as the user identification data.

Provided are a face detection apparatus and a distance measurement method using the same. The face detection apparatus detects a face using left and right images which are acquired from a stereo camera. The face detection apparatus measures distance from the stereo camera to the face using an image frame which is provided from the stereo camera without a stereo matching process. Accordingly, the face detection apparatus simultaneously performs face detection and distance measurement even in a low-performance system.

The present invention relates to an apparatus for reproducing sound, a method for reproducing sound, a monitor with speakers, and a mobile phone with speakers. An apparatus according to the present invention is an apparatus for reproducing sound from original source signals, and comprises a control means, a first speaker, and a second speaker. The control means receives first and second original source signals, and controls magnitudes and phases of the received first and second original source signals so that a sound pressure level in a pre-determined zone is higher than a sound pressure level in zone other than the pre-determined zone, and outputs first and second controlled source signals. The first speaker receives the first controlled source signal and reproduces sound. The second speaker receives the second controlled source signal and reproduces sound. The apparatus according to the present invention can provide the sound environment in which only the person using the sound system enjoys the sound.
