Abstract: A method to enhance detail of an image based on noise elimination includes calculating a noise weight corresponding to a probability that a center pixel, located in a block of pixels of a region of the image, is noise by using a difference between the center pixel and a surrounding pixel located in the block of pixels, calculating a first substitution value for the center pixel based on the noise weight; and calculating a second substitution value for the center pixel by using the noise weight and a sharpen filter.

Abstract: A display apparatus for controlling a field of view is provided. When a mode it set to a photograph mode, the display apparatus may control the field of view when photographing, by sensing an input light emitted from an object and transmitted through a first panel on which a field of view control pattern is formed, and a second panel on which an imaging pattern is formed.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling a 3-dimensional (3D) image using a virtual tool are provided. The apparatus may detect a user object that controls the 3D image, and determine a target virtual tool matching movement of the user object. In addition, the apparatus may display the determined target virtual tool along with the 3D image.

Abstract: A frame rate conversion apparatus and method for an Ultra-High Definition (UD) image. The frame rate conversion apparatus may store a previous frame and a current frame of an edge of an input image, divided into N images, and insert an interpolation frame between the current frame and the previous frame. Also, the frame rate conversion apparatus may convert a frame rate of each of the N images.

Abstract: Provided is a touch object and proximate object sensing apparatus by selectively radiating a light. An object sensing apparatus may separately use a touch light source to sense a touch image generated by an object touching a light guide, and a hovering light source to sense a target image generated by an object proximate to the light guide. The light guide may emit, to an upper portion of the light guide, an invisible light radiated from the hovering light source to enhance a sensation of sensing the proximate object.
