  • Patent number: 7876954
    Abstract: For stereo matching, edge images are extracted from stereo images. An edge mask matching an edge form of a window relating to a reference edge pixel is searched for from among predefined edge masks mapped to predefined edge forms capable of appearing within a predetermined size window having a center of the reference edge pixel among edge pixels of a reference edge image of the edge images. Among edge pixels of a search edge image of the edge images, an edge pixel located at a center of a window having an edge form matching the searched edge mask is searched for and is set to a corresponding edge pixel mapped to a corresponding point with respect to the reference edge pixel. Among the edge pixels of the reference edge image, the reference edge pixel is used to currently search for the corresponding edge pixel from the search edge image.

  • Publication number: 20070186758
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling a background music (BGM) play operation is disclosed. The method determines if a predetermined hotkey is pressed during the BGM play operation and, if pressed, a BGM play control box is displayed while maintaining the state of an ongoing main operation. Function mapping of a series of predetermined keys is then changed. If determined that the predetermined key is pressed for control of the BGM play operation, the BGM play operation is controlled according to the mapped function of the pressed key. The BGM play control operation can be adjusted using the predetermined hotkey without converting the BGM play operation into the main operation.
