Disclosed is a technology of encoding haptic information on images or decoding haptic information from images. The method of encoding the haptic information on the images according to the present invention includes: generating haptic information; generating encoding target data by using the haptic information and header information associated with the haptic information; and generating an encoded image by encoding the encoding target data by using a least significant bit (LSB) of byte data of each of the original image pixels. As a result, the present invention can simply encode/decode the haptic information while maintaining an original image format.

Provided are a method for expressing emotion and intention in remote interaction and a real emoticon system thereof. The system includes a real emotitoy and a terminal. The real emotitoy senses an input pattern corresponding to sensing information from outside and operates according to an expressing pattern corresponding to sensing information. The terminal generates a real emoticon by corresponding at least one of input pattern information and expression pattern information from the real emotitoy to visual symbolization information, transfers expression pattern information of a real emoticon transmitted from the outside to the real emotitoy, and transfers input pattern information of a real emoticon from the real emotitoy to the outside, where the input pattern information is created by selecting and combining at least one of input patterns and the expression pattern information is created by selecting and combining at least one of expression patterns.
