Disclosed are an apparatus for measuring position of other apparatus and a method for the same. The apparatus may comprise at least one light emitting part transmitting a photo signal, at least one light receiving part receiving a photo signal transmitted from other apparatus, and a signal processing part controlling the at least one light emitting part to transmit the photo signal including identification information of itself, acquiring identification information of the other apparatus based on the photo signal received from the other apparatus, and acquiring a positional information of the other apparatus based on the acquired identification information of the other apparatus. Thus, the apparatus located in an arbitrary space may accurately acquire relative positional information of counterpart apparatuses.

Disclosed are an object tracking system using a robot and an object tracking method using a robot. The present invention provides an object tracking system using a robot and an object tracking method using a robot capable of continuously performing object tracking without missing the corresponding object even when the object deviates from a viewing angle of a camera, in tracking an image based object (person) using a robot.

Disclosed is a typewriter system and a text input method capable of accurately recognizing words by correcting words input using a mediated interface device based on a dictionary. A plurality of texts are combined by referencing a text recognition order set in which recognition results of texts are arranged according to a recognition order from texts input through the mediated interface device and the combined text is filtered using part index maps formed of part words that are an accumulated set of texts forming complete words. The part words passing through the part index maps is again filtered using a dictionary including context information formed of a set of words in a specific category, thereby making it possible to accurately recognize the words. The part words that cannot form words in a dictionary are removed in advance using the part index maps, thereby improving the recognition efficiency.

Disclosed is a method of detecting an upper body. The method includes detecting an omega candidate area including a shape formed of a face and a shoulder line of a human from a target image, cutting the target image into the upper body candidate area including the omega candidate area, detecting a human face from the upper body candidate area, and judging whether the upper body of the human is included in the target image according to the result of detecting the human face.

Apparatus and method for detecting upper body

Provided are a thimble-type intermediation device and a method for recognizing a finger gesture using the same. The thimble-type intermediation device includes: a motion sensing unit sensing a motion of a user's finger and generating the sensed result as motion data; a tactile sensing block sensing a tactile behavior of the user's finger and generating the sensed result as tactile data; a control unit recognizing the gesture and tactile behavior of the user's finger on the basis of the generated motion data and tactile data, and outputting the recognition result as recognition result information; and a wireless communication unit transmitting the recognition result information to a robot system.
