A display apparatus and a control method thereof include a display and a camera configured to be provided at an upper portion of the display apparatus to generate an image signal, the camera being movable to an up position or a down position. Also included are a voice sensor configured to receive a voice of a user, a power supply configured to supply electric power to the camera and a controller configured to control the camera to generate the image signal when the camera is in the up position. The controller is also configured to control the camera to disable the generation of the image signal and to output a message indicating that the camera is in the down position, when the camera is in the down position.

Display apparatus with a camera and control method thereof

Provided herein is an access point including a communicator configured to communicate with an external electronic apparatus; and a controller configured to, in response to determining that a preset first electronic apparatus is connected to the communicator, provide a signal for requesting connection between a second electronic apparatus connected to another access point and the first electronic apparatus to the another access point based on a type of an IP address (Internet Protocol) allocated to the access point, and form a single network with the another access point based on a signal in response to the connection request signal, thereby providing a user with convenience in communication connection with the electronic apparatus.

Access point and control method thereof

A display apparatus for providing a multi view mode along with glasses is provided. The display apparatus includes a communicator which communicates with the glasses, a display which displays multiple contents respectively, a screen telephony performer which performs screen telephony with another display apparatus, and a controller. The controller controls the communicator to transmit a user's voice received from the another display apparatus to the glasses, when the screen telephony with another display apparatus is performed, and which controls the display to display screen telephony images received from the another display apparatus and one content from among the multiple contents in a multi view mode.

Display apparatus, method for controlling the display apparatus, glasses and method for controlling the glasses

A display apparatus and a control method thereof include an image communication camera including an image sensor is installed to be movable up and down at an upper portion of the display apparatus, and protrudes from the display apparatus when in use; an image processor processing an image signal sensed by the image sensor; a display displaying the processed image signal; a sensor sensing the position of the image communication camera; a power supply supplying components of the display apparatus; and a controller controlling the power supply to supply electric power to the image communication camera if the image communication camera is moved up, and cut off the electric power to the image communication camera if the image communication camera is moved down. Thus, it is possible to determine whether the image communication camera and the microphone operate or not based on the position of the image communication camera.

An electronic device and a control method thereof are disclosed, the electronic device including: an operation implementation unit conducting a predetermined operation; a first main controller controlling the operation of the operation implementation unit; an input reception unit receiving an input signal; a second main controller processing the input signal and being in the power saving state in the standby mode; and a subcontroller controlling the second main controller to process the input signal when the input signal is received in the standby mode, wherein the second main controller processes the received input signal according to control of the subcontroller, controls the first main controller to operate in the normal mode when the input signal corresponds to entering the normal mode, and returns to the power saving state in the standby mode when the input signal does not correspond to entering the normal mode.

Electronic device and control method thereof

An apparatus, system and method for implementing a video call between a first caller and a second caller are provided. The apparatus includes: an image sensor which captures an image of the first caller; a display which displays an image of the second caller; a microphone which captures an audio input by the first caller; a speaker which outputs an audio input by the second caller; a detector which is configured to determine a location of the first caller; and a controller which controls the detector to determine the location of the first caller as corresponding to an original location, wherein in response to the first caller changing a location from the original location to a new location, the controller controls the detector to determine the location of the first caller as being the new location, and controls the microphone to adjust a configuration of the microphone based on the new location of the first caller.

Apparatus, system and method for video call

Provided are an apparatus, system and method for facilitating a video call between a first caller and a second caller, the apparatus including: an image sensor which captures an image of the first caller; a display which displays an image of the second caller; a microphone which captures audio input by the first caller; a speaker which plays audio input by the second caller; a detector which is operable to determine a location of the first caller; and a controller which controls the detector to determine the location as corresponding to an original location, wherein if the first caller changes from the original location to a new location, the controller controls the detector to determine the location as being the new location and controls the microphone to readjust based on the determined new location of the first caller.

Video telephony device for IPTV

A fast adaptive channel converting method and apparatus, and a computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program to execute the fast adaptive channel converting method. The fast adaptive channel converting method includes generating adjacent channel data by pre-signal processing an adjacent channel signal of a reference channel, receiving a channel change request from a user, searching for channel data corresponding to a changed channel in the adjacent channel data, and reproducing the searched channel data. Unlike a conventional technology, the fast adaptive channel changing apparatus and method prevents a screen blank time that may occur while changing a channel in a digital broadcast receiving apparatus, and thus boredom or inconvenience of a user can be removed. Also, when a channel is changed by using a preferred channel list, a channel search time can be remarkably reduced, and the user can easily watch a program of a preferred channel.

Fast adaptive channel converting method and apparatus, and computer readable recording medium for executing the fast adaptive channel converting method

A multi-processor system having a bus control module for enabling data transmission between different processors and enhancing system bus stability, includes a multitude of processor boards for sharing data via a system bus. Each processor board is provided with a processor for transmitting or receiving data signal together with a specific information signal that fits a specific protocol, and a bus control module for converting the specific information signal of the processor into a common information signal and transmitting the result to the system bus together with the data signal, and converting the common information signal transmitted from the system bus into a specific information data appropriate to the processor and transmitting the result to the processor together with the data signal, to thereby convert the specific information signal into common information signals TT, TS and LOA and perform data transmission and reception.
