Abstract: Disclosed are a robot cleaner and a method for controlling the same. The robot cleaner is capable of recognizing a position thereof by extracting one or more feature points having 2D coordinates information with respect to each of a plurality of images, by matching the feature points with each other, and then by creating a matching point having 3D coordinates information. Matching points having 3D coordinates information are created to recognize a position of the robot cleaner, and the recognized position is verified based on a moving distance measured by using a sensor. This may allow a position of the robot cleaner to be precisely recognized, and allow the robot cleaner to perform a cleaning operation or a running operation by interworking the precisely recognized position with a map.

Abstract: Disclosed are a robot cleaner and a method for controlling the same. A plurality of images are detected through an image detecting unit such as an upper camera, and two or more feature points are extracted from the plurality of images. Then, a feature point set consisting of the feature points is created, and the feature points included in the feature point set are matched with each other. This may allow the robot cleaner to precisely recognize a position thereof. Furthermore, this may allow the robot cleaner to perform a cleaning operation or a running operation by interworking a precisely recognized position with a map.

Abstract: The present invention relates to communicating between a network and a mobile terminal in a wireless communication system. The invention includes receiving a message from the network for announcing a service. The message includes an attribute for identifying whether the service is to be received according to a specific mode. The specific mode is a mode wherein information is communicated on a frequency having no associated uplink service. The attribute is included in the message according to a session description protocol describing the service.

Abstract: A voice control apparatus of a vacuum cleaner includes: a sense signal detector for detecting a sense signal provided from a user to provide a voice recognizable environment in an ambience; a voice command recognizing unit for temporarily stopping a driving of a motor upon receiving the detected sense signal and, at the same time, outputting a voice command control signal previously set in a voice command set corresponding to a voice command instructed by the user; and a driving command controller for controlling a function and a mode of a vacuum cleaner upon receiving the voice command control signal. By providing a voice recognizable environment, the vacuum cleaner can be effectively controlled through a user's voice command even in an environment with a strong noise.

Abstract: A menu input method for a mobile terminal including displaying a menu having a plurality of items on a display of the mobile terminal, displaying a cursor used to select one of the plurality of items at a first position on the display, capturing images of a pointer object moving in front of an image capturing device included with the mobile terminal, and converting the captured images into coordinate values of the cursor and moving the cursor to a second position on the display based on the converted coordinate values

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for acceleration of video encoding owing to adaptive discarding macroblocks is based on objective regularities between numerical characteristics used on successive stages of lossy encoding process. This method enables to avoid a large amount of computation and transformation being not necessary due to the fact that their results would be reduced to zero on stage of quantization. The early revelation of these regularities and adaptive control of discarding technique produce a very effective encoding scheme that can be used in the encoding systems that are aimed to extremely fast processing of video streams, in particular, in multi-channel codecs.

Abstract: Method for encoding and decoding a picture signal for detecting and correcting errors in a new structured GOB according to a data partition technique, method for encoding a picture signal, including the steps of (1) grouping picture information of one block group into respective information regions of each block, and partitioning to relevant regions, and (2) forming a partition table having length information of the partitioned regions of the grouped respective information regions.
