Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus and method for detecting an emotional change through facial expression analysis. The apparatus for detecting an emotional change through facial expression analysis includes a memory having at least one program recorded thereon, and a processor configured to execute the program, wherein the program includes a camera image acquisition unit configured to acquire a moving image including at least one person, a preprocessing unit configured to extract a face image of a user from the moving image and preprocess the extracted face image, a facial expression analysis unit configured to extract a facial expression vector from the face image of the user and cumulatively store the facial expression vector, and an emotional change analysis unit configured to detect a temporal location of a sudden emotional change by analyzing an emotion signal extracted based on cumulatively stored facial expression vector values.

Abstract: An air conditioning device for a vehicle includes: a housing having an inside divided into an inflow space, a heat exchange space, and an outflow space, which are straightly arranged, and having a plurality of discharge ports, which communicates with an interior, at the inflow space; a blowing unit disposed at the inflow space of the housing and configured to blow air; a heat exchange unit disposed at the heat exchange space of the housing and configured to adjust a temperature of conditioned air by exchanging heat with air; and an opening-closing door disposed at the outflow space of the housing and configured to open and close the plurality of discharge ports such that conditioned air at an adjusted temperature selectively flows to the plurality of discharge ports. The air conditioning device adjusts the temperature of conditioned air for respective modes and reduces a flow resistance of air.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for monitoring a user based on multi-view face images. The apparatus includes memory in which at least one program is recorded and a processor for executing the program.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for generating a 3D avatar. The method, performed by the apparatus, includes performing a 3D scan of the body of a user using an image sensor and generating a 3D scan model using the result of the 3D scan of the body of the user, matching the 3D scan model and a previously stored template avatar, and generating a 3D avatar based on the result of matching the 3D scan model and the template avatar.

Abstract: Provided is a method of reconstructing a three-dimensional (3D) model of an object. The method includes sequentially performing, by a camera module, first and second object scanning processes of scanning the same object, reconstructing, by a processor module, a 3D object model, based on a first object image obtained through the first object scanning process, performing pose learning on an object to generate learning data, based on data obtained through a process of reconstructing the 3D object model based on the first object image, and reconstructing, by the processor module, a final 3D object model, based on a second object image obtained through the second object scanning process and the learning data.
