Abstract: Provided is a lawn mower for forming images. The lawn mower includes: an image input unit receiving an image to be formed in a lawn area; a position detection unit detecting position information of the lawn mower on a movement path of the lawn mower; a lawn mowing unit processing a lawn according to any one of a plurality of lawn processing patterns which corresponds to each position on the movement path while the lawn mower moves along the movement path; and a control unit analyzing the image received from the image input unit, determining a lawn processing pattern, which corresponds to the position information detected by the position detection unit, to express the image in the lawn area and controlling the lawn mowing unit according to the determined lawn processing pattern and independently of the movement path.
Abstract: Provided is an input device for operating in a three-dimensional space and inputting user instructions. The input device includes a first operation unit that calculates a first rotation angle in a coordinate system independent of the attitude of the device based on the output value of a first sensor, a second operation unit that calculates a second rotation angle in the coordinate system based on the output value of a second sensor, an attitude angle measuring unit that calculates the attitude angle of the input device by combining the first rotation angle and the second rotation angle, and an intensity calculation unit that calculates force intensity in the coordinate system using acceleration of the input device and the attitude angle of the input device obtained in the attitude measuring unit.
