Abstract: A sterilization apparatus includes a main body, and a plurality of sterilization modules. The main body defines a sterilization space for sterilization of a sterilization target. The sterilization modules are disposed on a plurality of inner surfaces of the main body surrounding the sterilization space, respectively, and deliver germicidal light to the sterilization space. In addition, the sterilization module includes a support member and a plurality of light sources. A space between adjacent light sources disposed in some regions of the support member is different from a space between adjacent light sources disposed in the other regions of the support member.

Abstract: A display apparatus including a thin film transistor (TFT) substrate; a first LED sub-unit, a second LED sub-unit, and a third LED sub-unit; first, second, third, and fourth electrode pads disposed between the TFT substrate and the first LED sub-unit; and connectors connecting the first, second, and third LED sub-units to a respective one of the electrode pads, in which the first, second, and third sub-units are configured to be independently driven; light generated from the first LED sub-unit is emitted to the outside of the display apparatus by passing through the second and third LED sub-units; light generated from the second LED sub-unit is emitted to the outside of the display apparatus by passing through the third LED sub-unit; and at least one of the connectors includes a first portion electrically connecting a first surface of the first LED sub-unit to the second electrode pad.

Abstract: An electronic price indicator according to an embodiment includes a display displaying product information, an NFC module configured to communicate with a user terminal, a Bluetooth module configured to communicate with the user terminal, and a processor configured to control the display to display the product information received from the user terminal through the Bluetooth module. The processor is further configured to release a sleep mode when receiving an interrupt from the user terminal through the NFC module, and perform Bluetooth communication with the user terminal by initiating a scan for a predetermined period of time to receive an advertising signal from the user terminal.

Abstract: A face recognition apparatus and method using plural face images includes detecting a reference face image from an image input for registration in advance, calculating plural face feature information from a frontal face image if the detected reference face image includes the frontal face image, generating plural compared face images using the calculated plural face feature information, and determining whether the input face image matches the generated plural compared face images by comparing the input face image with the plural compared face images. Face images having diverse points of view are generated through single user registration, and thus the face recognition ratio can be heightened.

Abstract: Provided is an apparatus and a method for generating an image including multiple people, in which images are photographed, face images are detected from each of the photographed images, a face score for each of the face images detected from the photographed images is calculated, it is determined whether each of the face scores calculated for each of the face images is at least equal to a predetermined threshold, and each of face images having a highest face score for each of the face images is synthesized, to output the synthesized image as a final image, in order to generate a most satisfactory photographed image for a user.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for browsing media content and executing functions related to the media content are provided. Under the state that a collage image generated by combining a plurality of image elements corresponding respectively to a plurality of media contents is displayed, if a selection input is generated on the collage image, a preview window for a media content corresponding to a location of a point where the selection input is generated is configured to overlay the preview window on the collage image. If a function execution input is generated on the collage image, a representative function is performed using a media content corresponding to a location of a point where the function execution input is generated.

Abstract: A facial image registration apparatus and method are provided for registering a plurality of facial images to be used for face recognition. A plurality of facial images are detected and sorted from a plurality of captured images input from a camera unit at the request of a user. A face feature value is calculated for each of the facial images. The face feature value is a score that is applied according to face features of each of the facial images. Facial images selected according to the calculated face feature values are registered as target facial images to be used for face recognition. As such, various facial images may be registered at a user's single request, thus improving a face recognition rate.
