A dynamic vision sensor includes a pixel unit, including a plurality of pixels outputting an activation signal in response to dynamic input, a first reading unit outputting a first signal, based on the activation signal, a second reading unit outputting a second signal, based on the activation signal, an event counter counting the number of events generated, based on the activation signal, and generating and outputting a selection signal, based on the number of events, and a selecting unit outputting one of the first signal and the second signal, based on the selection signal.

Dynamic vision sensor, electronic device and data transfer method thereof

The present invention relates to a microphone with a specific audible area using ultrasound wave, which emits an ultrasound wave toward a sound source positioned in a specific area within a desired distance and a desired direction from the microphone, and extracts a sound signal in an audible frequency range, generated by the sound source, from an ultrasound wave reflected and received from the sound source. The microphone with a specific audible area using ultrasound wave can limit the audible area to an area within a specific angle from a half line starting from the microphone and a specific distance from the microphone, such that a user can selectively hear a desired sound in a noisy environment. When the microphone is applied to a hearing aid, the user can hear only the audible sound generated by the sound source located within the specific audible area in front of the user with the surrounding noise removed.

Disclosed is a hearing aid attached to a mobile electronic device. Elements forming the hearing aid are separated into a main hearing aid device and a sub-hearing aid device. The main hearing aid device is attached to the casing of a mobile electronic device and connected to the mobile electronic device through a wired cable, and the sub-hearing aid device is placed in an ear of a user. Other people rarely notice that a user uses the hearing aid because the main hearing aid device is mounted on the casing of a mobile electronic device. The hearing aid is supplied with power from the battery of the mobile electronic device, and has the same size as the casing of the mobile electronic device. Accordingly, a beamforming operation through a microphone array is possible, and use convenience and a level of satisfaction of the hearing aid can be improved.

Provided is a capacitive touch sensor which includes a flat panel display for displaying an image and a touch sensor panel positioned on the flat panel display or embedded in the flat panel display. The capacitive touch sensor may include: a driving clock generator configured to generate a plurality of time-periodic output signals by using a gate driver signal of the flat panel display, and apply the generated time-periodic output signals to the touch sensor panel and a receiver circuit unit; a driver configured to generate a driving signal of the touch sensor panel using a part of the output signals of the driving clock generator; and the receiver circuit unit configured to process noise contained in a signal received from the touch sensor panel, using the output signals.
