Abstract: A broadcasting system for providing a broadcasting program to a mobile terminal and a method of controlling the same are provided. The method includes the steps of selecting a broadcasting program through a mobile terminal, selecting a broadcasting type of the selected broadcasting program through the mobile terminal, selectively transmitting at least one of video data, audio data, and text data of the selected broadcasting program based on the selected broadcasting type from a broadcasting station server to the mobile terminal, and displaying the transmitted data on the mobile terminal or outputting the transmitted data through the mobile terminal.

Abstract: An apparatus for processing images includes a de-multiplexer, a first decoder, a thumbnail generator and an encoder. The de-multiplexer receives a data stream, the de-multiplexer de-multiplexing a video signal and a channel information from the data stream. A first decoder decodes the video signal to provide a decoded video signal including at least one of Predicted frame, (P-frame), Intra frame (I-frame) or Bi-directional frame (B-frame). The thumbnail generator is coupled to the first decoder, and the thumbnail generator generates at least one of a still picture thumbnail or a moving picture thumbnail based on the decoded video signal. The still picture thumbnail and the moving picture thumbnail have at least one of a smaller resolution or a smaller data size than the decoded video signal. The encoder is coupled to the thumbnail generator and the de-multiplexer.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices for receiving broadcast signal. More specifically, one of the devices includes at least two tuners (102, 103) configured to synchronize at least two transmit stream independently, at least two transmit stream processors (104, 105) each configured to convert the at least one transmit stream into a plurality of audio signals, a plurality of displayable video signals, and a plurality of displayable data signals, a controller (100) configured to provide switching control signal and display control signal based on channel selected by a user, a switching unit (135) configured to output a data broadcast associated with a first broadcast channel and the video and the audio associated with a second broadcast channel, a display module (138) configured to display a video of the first broadcast channel in a first display area and a data of the second broadcast channel in a second display area, and at least one speaker configured to audio output of at least two different broadcast channels.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a robot mechanism for nondestructive aging evaluation of a cable.
