  • Publication number: 20100130818
    Abstract: A capsule-type endoscope is disclosed. Information related to position and movement of the capsule-type endoscope inserted into a body are checked and a frame rate is controlled according to a digestive organ in which the capsule-type endoscope is located based upon the information, so as to capture every digestive organ inside the body by using one capsule-type endoscope. Also, the frame rate can be controlled according to a moving velocity in each digestive organ, thus to reduce unnecessary power consumption, resulting in a decrease of an operation time of the capsule-type endoscope having a limited battery capacity. In addition, an amount of captured images can be reduced by effectively obtaining images according to the moving velocity in each digestive organ and a time taken by a doctor for a medical examination can be shortened.

  • Publication number: 20090144133
    Abstract: Provided are a context related advertisement/information exposure method and a recommendation service system. The method includes the steps of: queuing information recommended (‘recommended information’) by a user on a queue list; selecting a candidate group (current list) to be exposed in an information region of contents page; determining an initial exposure number of each recommended information on the current list, and mapping each recommended information on the current list by the initial exposure number upon exposure of the contents to expose the same; comparing each recommended information that has been exposed by the exposure number with a reference value to determine whether its remaining on the current list is required; and determining a unit exposure number of recommended information that remains on the current list (residual recommended information), and mapping the residual recommended information by the unit exposure number upon exposure of the contents, to thereby expose the same.
