Abstract:
A technology for a client streaming content of a server is provided. The technology includes a service installed in the client that receives the content from the server instead of a media player, downloads the content in a cache having a larger capacity than a memory buffer of the media player, and then transfers data stored in the cache to the media player. Accordingly, even when the memory buffer is full, data reception from the server is not stopped, and thus power consumption of the server and the client may be reduced. Also, since a connection to the server is performed by the service instead of the media player, various socket interfaces may be supported without having to change the media player, and since data is stored in the cache, a buffering time may be reduced.
Abstract:
A method of reproducing a streaming video received from a source device is provided. The method including reproducing, by a sync device, a first streaming video representing an image on a screen of the source device, the first streaming video being reproduced using a full screen player, when a partial area of the image on the screen of the source device changes, receiving, from the source device, a second streaming video including change information about the partial area, determining a partial screen player to reproduce the second streaming video, and reproducing the second streaming video in an area of a screen of the sync device which corresponds to the partial area of the image on the screen of the source device, the second streaming video being reproduced using the partial screen player.
Abstract:
A display apparatus for mirroring a screen image is provided. The display apparatus includes a display unit configured to display a predetermined screen image, an input unit configured to receive a predetermined command or data, a control unit configured to control the predetermined screen image to be transmitted to another display apparatus in order to make the other display apparatus mirror the predetermined screen image, and to reduce power consumption used to display the predetermined screen image when screen image mirroring is requested, and a communication unit configured to transmit the predetermined screen image to the other display apparatus. Also, the display apparatus reduces the power consumption caused when a mirroring service is used.
Abstract:
A method of automatically reconnecting a master device and a slave device performed by the master device includes performing a pairing operation with the slave device, connecting to the slave device when the pairing operation is finished, and attempting to reconnect to the slave device according to whether an unpairing message is received from the slave device.
Abstract:
A method of reproducing content is provided. The method includes, when a sync terminal reproduces content by receiving the content from a source terminal via a certain network, reproducing the content in a mirroring mode during a certain time, buffering image data corresponding to the content to be reproduced after the certain time, during the certain time, and reproducing the content in a streaming mode after the certain time by using the buffered image data.
Abstract:
A method of connecting a plurality of portable terminal over a wireless local area network (WLAN), the method including: a user selecting at least one contact from a contact list displayed on a screen of a first portable terminal, transmitting, from the first portable terminal to an external server over a cellular network, connection information necessary for establishing a WLAN link to the first portable terminal; pushing the connection information from the external server to a second portable terminal corresponding to the selected contact; a user pressing a connection authentication button on a selection menu displayed on the second portable terminal, and establishing the WLAN link to the first portable terminal from the second portable terminal by using the connection information.
Abstract:
A method for providing a service related to a plurality of mirroring images displayed on a screen of a sink device is provided. The method includes determining a first object in a first mirroring image that is displayed on the screen of the sink device, based on a user input, as the first object is moved to a location in a second mirroring image that is displayed on the screen of the sink device, determining a second object that corresponds to the location to which the first object has been moved, determining a service related to the first object and the second object, from among services provided via the second mirroring image, and outputting a result of the determined service.
Abstract:
A method of dynamically buffering content for providing a streaming service is provided. The method includes estimating a maximum amount of decrease in a network speed based on a result of measuring a network, and determining an amount of data to be buffered so that additional buffering, after playback of content is started, does not cause playback interruption, based on a maximum amount of decrease in the network speed, a total size of the content, a speed of playing the content, and a speed of receiving the content.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a system for recognizing a user location using sensor-based activity recognition. The system includes a mobile device which includes a sensor module configured to sense information about at least one of a user state and surrounding environments, a first processor configured to extract activity information based on the sensed information, and a first communication module configured to transmit the extracted activity information; and a user terminal device which includes a second communication module configured to receive the activity information from the first communication module, and a processor configured to determine a user location in a user space corresponding to a user activity based on the received activity information. By determining a user's location in a user space corresponding to a user activity, it is possible to control electronic devices corresponding to the user activity or provide a service of monitoring activities of the old and weak and the child.
Abstract:
Provided is a wearable device that is wearable on a body of a user, the wearable device including a display configured to display a screen; a sensor configured to sense a motion of the user; and a controller configured to control the display based on the sensed motion.
