The vehicle includes an air conditioner, a temperature sensor configured to measure an indoor temperature of the vehicle, a camera configured to obtain an image data of a passenger, and a bio-signal sensor configured to measure a bio-signal of the passenger. A controller is configured to control, when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the air conditioner to change a type of wind blowing at predetermined time intervals, to obtain emotion information corresponding to the changed type of wind based on at least one of the image data or the bio-signal, and to blow a type of wind for which a degree of positiveness of emotion information is equal to or greater than a threshold level.

Vehicle and method for controlling the same

An electronic device attached to a user's skin is provided to determine a user emotion based on measured bio-signals. An image corresponding to the determined emotion is displayed. The electronic device includes a skin-attachment apparatus having a bonding unit for bonding to a user's skin and a bio-signal sensor that measures the bio-signals of the user. A display unit and a controller are connected with the skin-attachment apparatus. The controller determines the user emotion based on the bio-signals acquired from the bio-signal sensor and operates the display unit to display at least one of a color and a pattern corresponding to the determined emotion.

Electronic device and controlling method thereof

A vehicle includes: a sensor for measuring a relative position and a relative speed between an obstacle and the vehicle; an injector for injecting a deforming material which is solidified during injection to absorb an impact and enhance coupling strength at a portion to which the deforming material is attached; and a controller configured to determine a collision probability with the obstacle based on the measured relative position and the measured relative speed, to determine a predicted collision position when the collision probability reaches a reference collision probability, to determine an injection direction of the injector based on the predicted collision position, and to control the injector to inject the deforming material in the determined injection direction.

Vehicle and control method of vehicle

An electronic device may include a communication circuit, a touch screen display, and a processor configured to be electrically connected to the communication circuit and the touch screen display wherein the processor provides a chat screen for displaying a chat among a plurality of users including a user of the electronic device and a user of at least one external device using the communication circuit and the touch screen display, obtains a time keyword associated with a pick-up time and a place keyword associated with a pick-up place by analyzing text data displayed on the chat screen, and, when inputs of all of the plurality of users are provided to a confirmation button included in the chat screen, provides a question screen for inquiring whether the plurality of users agree on the pick-up time and the pick-up place.

Electronic device and method for scheduling trip for car sharing service

The present disclosure provides a dialogue system and a method for controlling thereof. The dialogue system may include: an input processor configured to authenticate a user and receive new input information and new state information of the user; a storage configured to store existing state information of the user, existing input information, and available services; a controller configured to identify a service based on the new input information and the existing input information, and to identify the service based on the new state information of the user and the existing state information of the user, wherein the service is configured to fit needs of the user; and an output processor configured to determine a service format based on the new input information and the new state information of the user, wherein the service format is regarding ways to provide the service to the user.

Dialogue system and method to identify service from state and input information

A vehicle includes: a user interface including a display and a speaker; a capturer configured to capture a passenger's image; and a controller configured to obtain emotion information representing the passenger's emotion based on the image, to determine content corresponding to the emotion information, to control the user interface to output the determined content, to obtain circumstance information representing the passenger's circumstances based on the image after the determined content is output, to modify the determined content based on the circumstance information, and to control the user interface to output the modified content.

A trip scheduling device can include a touch screen display, a communication circuit configured to communicate with an external device, and a processor electrically connected with the touch screen display and the communication circuit. The processor can determine a destination corresponding to a task entered by a user of the device, display, via the touch screen display, a user interface including a map and a chatting window for a user group including the user connected by the communication circuit, and receive, via the touch screen display, an input associated with the user interface for determining a trip for the user group.

Electronic device and method for scheduling trip

A method operating a telematics device of a vehicle can include: requesting identity (ID) information of a driver from a driver terminal when the driver enters the vehicle; performing an authentication process using the ID information; preventing start-up of an engine of the vehicle when the driver is identified as a temporary user according to the authentication process; receiving navigation data including information relating to a destination from the driver terminal; acquiring information indicating an estimated insurance fee corresponding to each of one or more paths for navigating to the destination; transmitting the information indicating the estimated insurance fee to the driver terminal; and starting the engine when one of the one or more paths for navigating to the destination is selected by the driver terminal.
