Abstract: A water purifier or other liquid dispenser may sense a height of the inlet of a container accurately through an infrared transmitter and an infrared receiver that are disposed at different positions of a water discharge module moving vertically. Additionally, in the water purifier, the water discharge module may discharge purified water at a point spaced a certain distance apart from the inlet of the container, based on infrared sensing, thereby preventing the inlet of the container from contacting the lower surface of the water discharge module.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for monitoring the security of a computing network which includes a plurality of hosts and a plurality of edges which link connected hosts. The method comprises capturing and storing first and second network state information at first and second times respectively. The method comprises comparing the first and second network state information to detect a change in the security of the network during the time window between the first and second times. The method further comprises storing security change data which is indicative of the change in the security of the network during the time window for a user to monitor the change in the security of the network.

Abstract: The presently disclosed technology provides a threat-specific network risk evaluation tailored to a client's security objectives. The present technology may include identifying a plurality of threats to a first component of a networked system and assigning a plurality of weighting values to the plurality of threats according to the client's security objectives. The present technology may include identifying a plurality of vulnerabilities of the first component and determining a set of relevant threats for the first vulnerability based on the nature of the vulnerability and the weighting values assigned to the plurality of threats. The set of relevant threats includes one or more of the plurality of threats. The present technology may include determining a set of relevant threats for each of the identified vulnerabilities of the first component and calculating a risk of the first component based on the sets of the relevant threats.

Abstract: A monitoring system according to the present embodiment comprises a surveillance camera and a monitoring device. The surveillance camera transmits information on an operation environment thereof to the monitoring device. The monitoring device periodically predicts a future breakdown date of at least one component according to the information on the operation environment of the surveillance camera and characteristic information on the al least one component of the surveillance camera, and provides a warning when the future breakdown date of the prediction result is within a predetermined period from a current date.

Abstract: Provided is an image acquisition apparatus according to an embodiment of the disclosure for performing wireless Internet communication. The image acquisition apparatus stores a service set identifier (SSID) of a specific access point, stores in a memory files of a video, which are acquired by photographing, and uploads the files, which are stored in the memory, to a monitoring device through the specific access point when the SSID is detected.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for sensing the depth of an object by considering external light and a device implementing the same, and a method for sensing the depth of an object by considering external light according to an embodiment of the present disclosure comprises the steps of: storing, in a storage unit, first depth information of an object, which is sensed at a first time point by a depth camera unit of a depth sensing module; storing, in the storage unit, second depth information of the object, which is sensed at a second time point by the depth camera unit; comparing, by a sensing data filtering unit of the depth sensing module, the generated first and second depth information to identify a filtering target region from the second depth information; and adjusting, by a control unit of the depth sensing module, the depth value of the region filtered from the second depth information.
