Abstract:
According to various embodiments, a method for notifying of surrounding situation information by an electronic device may comprise the operations of: monitoring a value indicating a movement of the electronic device; determining whether a state of the electronic device is a stopped state, on the basis of the value indicating a movement of the electronic device; and acquiring surrounding situation information of the electronic device, which will be notified of to a user, when the state of the electronic device is a stopped state; and outputting the surrounding situation information.
Abstract:
A method and mobile terminal for correcting a gaze of a user in an image includes setting eye outer points that define an eye region of the user in an original image, transforming the set eye outer points to a predetermined reference camera gaze direction, and transforming the eye region of the original image based on the transformed eye outer points.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method of controlling a mobile terminal by detecting a face or an eye in an input image are provided. The method includes performing face recognition on an input image facing and being captured by an image input unit equipped on the front face of the mobile terminal; determining, based on the face recognition, user state information that includes whether a user exists, a direction of the user's face, a distance from the mobile terminal, and/or a position of the user's face; and performing a predetermined function of the mobile terminal according to the user state information. According to the method, functions of the mobile terminal may be controlled without direct inputs from the user.
Abstract:
A method is provided for detecting and tracking a moving object using real-time camera motion estimation, including generating a feature map representing a change in an input pattern in an input image, extracting feature information of the image, estimating a global motion for recognizing a motion of a camera using the extracted feature information, correcting the input image by reflecting the estimated global motion, and detecting a moving object using the corrected image.
Abstract:
A method and portable terminal are provided for correcting a gaze direction of a user in an image. A face of the user is detected in the image. Contour points of an eye area are detected in the detected face. The contour points of the detected eye area in the image are changed to contour points that correspond to a gaze direction toward a reference camera. The gaze direction of the user in the image is corrected by transforming the eye area according to the changed contour points.
Abstract:
A context awareness-based screen scroll method is provided. The method includes detecting information about surrounding circumstances of a terminal, setting a screen scroll mode based on the surrounding circumstances, detecting occurrence of an event corresponding to the set screen scroll mode, and executing screen scroll according to the occurred event.

Abstract:
An electronic apparatus for providing a service associated with images is provided. The electronic apparatus includes a memory, and a processor configured to acquire multiple images, acquire information associated with at least one of the multiple images, classify at least some of the multiple images into at least one group based on the information associated with the at least one of the multiple images, and provide a service based on information of the classification of the at least some of the multiple images.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for photographing a panoramic image. The method includes detecting a Motion Vector (MV) of a plurality of images captured through a photographing unit, selecting regions to be included in the panoramic image from the plurality of images, based on the MV, and generating the panoramic image including the selected regions.
