Abstract:
Provided is a sensory effect representation apparatus including a collection unit configured to collect user status information about a user status, a storage unit configured to store sensory effects; an analysis unit configured to analyze the user status information to generate a user status prediction pattern, a sensory effect recommendation unit configured to recommend a sensory effect corresponding to the user status prediction pattern, from among the stored sensory effects; and a sensory effect provision unit configured to read a sensory effect corresponding to the sensory effect prediction pattern, from the storage unit and provide the read sensory effect. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a sensory effect appropriate for a user characteristic by predicting a user status and reflecting a feedback on a recommended sensory effect.
