Abstract: A method for coding image information includes generating prediction information by predicting information on a current coding unit, and determining whether the information on the current coding unit is the same as the prediction information. When the information on the current coding unit is the same as the prediction information, a flag indicating that the information on the current coding unit is the same as the prediction information is coded and transmitted. When the information on the current coding unit is not the same as the prediction information, a flag indicating that the information on the current coding unit is not the same as the prediction information and the information on the current coding unit are coded and transmitted.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for encoding and decoding an image by skip encoding. The image-encoding method by skip encoding, which performs intra-prediction, comprises: performing a filtering operation on the signal which is reconstructed prior to an encoding object signal in an encoding object image; using the filtered reconstructed signal to generate a prediction signal for the encoding object signal; setting the generated prediction signal as a reconstruction signal for the encoding object signal; and not encoding the residual signal which can be generated on the basis of the difference between the encoding object signal and the prediction signal, thereby performing skip encoding on the encoding object signal.

Abstract: A camera that is mountable in a mobile communications device is disclosed. The camera allows the user of the device to precisely adjust the acute rotational angle of the camera with respect to the body of the device and maintains the adjusted angle of the camera until the user deliberately adjusts it again.

Abstract: A mobile communication terminal comprising a main body, a folder having a display, a first hinge formed at an upper portion of the main body for rotating the folder about the main body in a first direction, a camera positioned at a surface of the first hinge, and a second hinge formed between the folder and the first hinge for rotating the folder about the main body in a second direction. An object can be easily photographed at various angles and, even with the folder in a closed position, the object can be photographed while checking an image through the display.

Abstract: A mobile telephone battery cover locking mechanism includes at least one latching member and at least one spring loaded locking member adapted to securely engage the latching member at one end when the latching member is fully inserted in at least one spacing provided at that end. The latching member forces the spring loaded locking member to move against its spring bias when the latching member is being inserted in the spacing with the spring loaded locking member having moved under its spring bias when the latching member is fully inserted in the spacing. The spring loaded locking member may be moved against its spring bias to allow the fully inserted latching member to disengage from the spring loaded locking member.

Abstract: A rotation open and close type mobile terminal comprises a terminal body; a display unit connected to be rotatable horizontally at an upper surface of the terminal body and mounted with a display window; and a hinge unit mounted between the terminal body and the display unit and supporting to horizontally rotate the display unit within a set range, thereby implementing a wide screen at the display window.

Abstract: A rotary camera assembly of a mobile communication device is provided that may include a camera supporting member, a camera, a rotation boss, a rack portion and a belt. The camera supporting member may be installed at a hinge portion of the mobile communication device. The camera may be rotatably installed in the camera supporting member. The rotation boss may be formed at a side of the camera. The rack may be formed at a side of the camera supporting member. The belt may connect the rotation boss and the rack portion so as to maintain a rotation angle of the camera.

Abstract: A disk guide apparatus for an optical disk playback system includes a pinion gear having at least one non-toothed portion, a pair of guide plates respectively having a gear portion being engaged to the pinion gear, and a spring providing an elastic restoration to the guide plates. The apparatus prevents an erroneous insertion of the optical disk and carries out a disk loading/unloading operation by use of minimal parts thereof, thereby realizing a simplified structure and an easy assembly as well as decreasing production cost and improving workability.

Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for providing and using content advisory (CA) information on Internet contents. A method of providing CA information by using a CA information server, includes receiving a request for the CA information on a content, from an Internet Protocol television (IPTV); searching for CA information on the content; and transmitting the found CA information to the IPTV. A method of using CA information when an IPTV reproduces a content not having the CA information, according to the present invention, includes transmitting a request for CA information, to a CA information server; receiving the CA information from the CA information server; analyzing the CA information; and applying the CA information.
