Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for providing information on an object excluded in a visual field of a terminal in a form of augmented reality (AR) by using an image inputted to the terminal and information related thereto. The method includes the steps of: (a) specifying the visual field of the terminal corresponding to the inputted image by referring to at least one piece of information on a location, a displacement and a viewing angle of the terminal; (b) searching an object(s) excluded in the visual field of the terminal; and (c) displaying guiding information on the searched object(s) with the inputted image in a form of the augmented reality; wherein the visual field is specified by a viewing frustum whose vertex corresponds to the terminal.

Abstract: The present invention includes a method for providing different images by referring to angles of a terminal. The method includes the steps of: (a) if the angle falls under an angular range which includes 0 degree with respect to the horizontal plane, setting a content provided through the terminal to be map information, if the angle falls under an angular range which includes 90 degrees with respect to the horizontal plane, setting a content provided through the terminal to be preview image, and if the angle falls under an angular range which includes 180 degrees with respect to the horizontal plane, setting a content provided through the terminal to be weather; (b) acquiring information on the angle by using a sensor; (c) creating information on an image based on the set content; and (d) providing a user with the created information.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for adaptively performing an image matching process according to a situation. The method includes the steps of: (a) recognizing the situation of a subject included in an inputted image; and (b) selecting an image group including at least one image to be compared with the inputted image of the subject for the image matching process among multiple images stored on a database, as a qualified reference image group, according to the recognized situation; wherein the images included in the qualified reference image group are dynamically changed according to the recognized situation.

Abstract: The present invention includes a method for performing visual search based on a movement and/or an angular position of a terminal. The method includes the steps of: (a) sensing a movement and/or an angular position of a terminal by using at least one of sensors; (b) determining whether a triggering event occurs or not by referring to at least one of the sensed movement and the sensed angular position of the terminal; and (c) if the triggering event occurs, allowing visual search to be performed for at least one of objects included in an output image displayed on the terminal at the time of the occurrence of the triggering event; wherein the output image is generated in a form of augmented reality by combining an image inputted through the terminal in real time with information relevant thereto.
