Publication number: 20120173192Abstract: Disclosed herein are an apparatus and a method for automatically recognizing a position of a wheel of a vehicle. The apparatus includes a rotation sensor unit sensing a variation in rotation of the wheel of the vehicle; a pressure sensor unit sensing a rate of variation in pressure of the wheel of the vehicle; and a sensor control unit judging the position of the wheel of the vehicle by the variation in rotation and the rate of variation in pressure obtained from the rotation sensor unit and the pressure sensor unit. The sensor control unit judges the position of the wheel of the vehicle by dw/dt×dp/dt, in which dw/dt is the variation in rotation and dp/dt is the rate of variation in pressure. The wheel is judged as a front wheel when a value of dw/dt×dp/dt has a negative (?) sign and the wheel is judged as a rear wheel when the value of dw/dt×dp/dt has a positive (+) sign.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2011Publication date: July 5, 2012Applicant: SAMSUNG ELECTRO-MECHANICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Jong Hyeong Song, Kyungno Lee, Jong Woo Han

Patent number: 8179430Abstract: Disclosed herein is a biometric authentication device. The biometric authentication device according to the present invention is configured such that it blocks visible light using an authentication button, the inside of which is opened or closed by a finger so as to realize the small size and slim shape of a biometric authentication device, and blocks infrared light or allows infrared light to pass while a driving unit moves vertically or horizontally by the operation of the authentication button. Accordingly, in the biometric authentication device, a camera module captures a normal image in normal mode, and captures an infrared pattern reflected from a finger in a vein authentication mode to perform biometric authentication.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2009Date of Patent: May 15, 2012Assignee: Samsung Electro-Mechanics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hae Seung Hyun, Bae Kyun Kim, Il Kweon Joung, Il Hyung Jung, Kyungno Lee
