The present invention relates to an apparatus for providing digital contents that acquires image data by photographing a user terminal intending to receive digital contents and discriminates a type of user terminal through the acquired image data. The present invention can simply and conveniently perform the process of discriminating a user terminal that is cumbersomely and complexly performed in the apparatus for providing contents according to the related art by the user that is not familiar with the use of the IT devices.

Apparatus for providing digital contents and method thereof

The present invention relates to a game vending machine that receive game contents from a service provider server and vends the game contents, the game vending machine comprising: a data analyzer that divides the game contents transmitted from the service provider server into a game executing file and UI generating information and divides the UI generating information into variable dynamic information and continuously usable static information and outputs the divided information; a dynamic information updating unit that receives the dynamic information and updates the previously stored dynamic information; an interface generator that receives the static information and the updated dynamic information to generate a user interface to be used for vending games; and an interface managing unit that displays the generated user interface to a user.

System for vending game contents and method thereof

Provided is a content manager that receives content tables of adjacent apparatuses for providing digital contents to update its own content table; a content search unit that refers to the content tables of the adjacent apparatuses for providing digital contents to determine whether the contents requested by the user are providable contents and when the contents are the providable contents, grasps a storage location of the corresponding contents; and a content transceiver that when the corresponding contents are stored in the adjacent apparatuses for providing digital contents, requests the corresponding contents to the corresponding adjacent apparatuses for providing digital contents and receives the corresponding contents from the adjacent apparatuses for providing digital contents.

The present invention relates to a communication system and method in a ship area network. In a network of a structure including a plurality of shielded regions, communication is performed between terminals provided in the shielded region by using wireless communication, and communication is performed between terminals provided in different shielded regions by further using power line communication, optical communication, or the power line communication and the optical communication in addition to the wireless communication. Therefore, it is possible to obtain advantages of minimizing inconvenience, which is caused by using only wire communication in the related art, and enlarging a working area.
