Abstract: A method for searching for an image includes receiving a user input to select a region of interest from an image; displaying an indicator showing the region of interest; determining at least one piece of identification information for the region of interest as a search word; searching for an image corresponding to the search word from an image database; and displaying a found image.

Abstract: A control method and an electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a photographing unit configured to photograph a hand including fingers, a display unit configured to display a plurality of content objects, and a control unit configured to recognize a finger gesture of the photographed hand and a distance from the electronic device to the finger, and control the display unit to change and display a range of a displayed content object according to the recognized finger gesture and the distance.

Abstract: An image providing method includes displaying a first image, the first image including an object and a background; receiving a user input selecting the object or the background as a region of interest; acquiring first identification information associated with the region of interest based on first attribute information of the first image; acquiring a second image from a target image, the second image including second identification information, the second identification information being the same as the first identification information; and generating an effect image based on at least one of the first image and the second image.

Abstract: A digital apparatus is provided. The digital apparatus includes an image acquisition unit configured to acquire an image of a user and a controller configured to recognize a hand shape in the acquired image of the user and to perform a function corresponding to the recognized hand shape.

Abstract: An actuator assembly for an electromechanical parking brake greatly reduces vibration and noise of the actuator so that a high-quality vehicle may be realized by removing one of factors causing vibration and noise in the vehicle and greatly improves the easiness of assembly and handling together with attenuating vibration and noise by maximizing the excellent vibration and noise attenuating function by means of modularization which allows the actuator assembly to be handled as a single element.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing an image, whereby a 3-dimensional (3D) hand model corresponding to a hand image obtained may be generated by capturing an image of a hand of a person are provided. The method includes preparing a 3D hand model database, receiving a 2-dimensional (2D) hand image obtained by capturing an image of a first hand, and detecting a first 3D hand model corresponding to the 2D hand image by using the 3D hand model database.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for segmenting an object in an image. The method includes obtaining a first image including the object; receiving an input signal including information about a predetermined position in the first image; selecting at least one pixel included in the first image, based on the position information; generating a second image by dividing the first image into several areas, using the selected at least one pixel; and segmenting the object in the first image by using the first image and the second image.

Abstract: A user interface for a movement between pages having a laminated structure in a portable device is provided. A method of searching for a page in a three dimensional manner in a portable device includes overlappingly displaying a plurality of pages in three dimensions; detecting a distance between the portable device and a user input means; sequentially moving and displaying the plurality of pages according to the detected distance; and when a movement of the user input means for selecting a page is detected, displaying the selected page. As a user brings a user input means close to a front surface of the portable device, the pages having the laminated structure are sequentially moved and displayed one by one, starting from a page displayed on the front. The user can identify the pages and select a desired page by making a gesture for selecting a shown page.
