Patent number: 9866338Abstract: Encoding and decoding methods are provided. An information object is encoded according to a preset encoding scheme. A preset set of bits is selected from the encoded information object and the selected set of bits is output as a sample. A control packet including information on a sample number is generated. The sample is assembled with the control packet. The sample is modulated into a sound signal according to a preset scheme. An input sound signal is demodulated according to the preset scheme. Sample bits and control packet bits containing information of the sample are separated from each other in demodulated received bits. Address information corresponding to each bit of the sample is generated according to the control packet. A soft decision of the sample bits is summed for each piece of the generated address information. A sample decoding of the summed soft decision of the sample bits is performed.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2014Date of Patent: January 9, 2018Assignee: Samsung Electronics., LTdInventors: Hee-Won Jung, Seung-Gun Park, Gi-Sang Lee, Jun-Ho Koh, Sang-Mook Lee, Sergey Zhidkov

Patent number: 9838573Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for guiding a subject back within the recognizable visual range of a multimedia system are described. According to one of the described methods, when it is determined that the target has left the recognizable range of the multimedia system, sensor information is acquired from a portable electronic device (or controller) the user has been using to control the multimedia system, and the acquired sensor information is used to determine where the user is, relative to the recognizable range. In one example, the user is asked to make a gesture with the portable electronic device, and the sensor information concerning that gesture is used to determine the user's relative location. In another example, the sensor information recorded at the time the user left the recognizable range is used to determine the user's relative location.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2013Date of Patent: December 5, 2017Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., LtdInventors: Jin-Wuk Choi, Dong-Wook Kwon, Jung-Seop Kim, Kyung-Il Kim, Min-Ho Kim, Gi-Sang Lee, Sang-Bo Lee, Jin-Kyung Lee, Sun-Tae Jung, Young-Gu Jin

Patent number: 9594945Abstract: A method and an apparatus for controlling a display in order to secure an appropriate viewing distance between a digital device and a user who is viewing the digital device is provided. Accordingly, the method determines whether an object exists within a hazardous viewing distance using a 3D camera function provided in the digital device. If it is determined that an object exists within the hazardous viewing distance, the digital device detects a face or eyes from 2D images photographed by the camera. Next, the direction of the face is determined on the basis of the detected results, and it is determined whether a user is viewing a display screen of the digital device based on the determination. If it is determined that a user is viewing a display screen of a digital device, the digital device generates a warning that the user is positioned within a hazardous viewing distance.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2014Date of Patent: March 14, 2017Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., LtdInventors: Jeong-Hoon Park, Dong-Wook Kwon, Kyung-Il Kim, Min-Ho Kim, Gi-Sang Lee, Sang-Bo Lee, Jin-Kyung Lee, Young-Gu Jin, Jin-Wuk Choi
