A method of detecting a dangerous situation includes obtaining a first image including a first object capable of generating a movement, by using a dynamic vision sensor (DVS); detecting, from the first image, a second image including the first object in a predefined pose; and determining whether a situation of the first object is the dangerous situation by analyzing the second image.

Method and system for detecting dangerous situation

A method performed by an apparatus for inducing a sound sleep to induce a sound sleep of an object who is sleeping includes: determining a first wake-up time of the object based on schedule information of the object; receiving bio-information of the object; determining a sleep state of the object from the bio-information of the object; changing the first wake-up time to a second wake-up time by taking into account the sleep state of the object; and outputting a wake-up alarm signal at the second wake-up time.

Method and apparatus for improving and monitoring sleep

A method and apparatus for operating an electronic device may include: acquiring the battery status information of two or more element devices, and determining whether the battery status information satisfies a reference condition. A function of at least one device among the two or more element devices is controlled based on the information such as the battery status information.

Method for controlling function based on battery information and electronic device therefor

Provided is a video and audio reproduction apparatus including a display unit; a speaker unit; a main board; and a power supply unit, and the main board includes a printed circuit board; a first connector area which is formed on a front side of the printed circuit board; a second connector area which is formed on the front side of the printed circuit board; and a main chip which is surface-mounted on a back side of the printed circuit board.

Audio and video reproduction apparatus having main board on which surface mount type connectors are mounted

Provided are a timing control unit and method for adjusting a speed of a system and a display apparatus and method using the same. The display apparatus includes: a panel unit including a plurality of cells and a plurality of electrodes for driving the plurality of cells; and a driving controller which, when a three-dimensional (3D) image signal is input, sends a common signal to an electrode group combining a certain number of electrodes of the plurality of electrodes.

Timing control unit and apparatus and method for displaying using the same

An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes: a plurality of USB terminals, a sensor configured to sense a current of each of the connected USB devices and output current information in response to a USB device being connected to each of the plurality of USB terminals; a controller configured to determine whether or not a predetermined condition is satisfied based on the current information output from the sensor and permissible current information related to a current that is allowed to be supplied to the plurality of USB terminals, and output a message according to a result of the determination; and an outputter configured to output the message. Accordingly, a user may connect a USB device to a certain USB terminal without having to identify a current capacity, and thus user convenience is improved.

Electronic apparatus including USB terminals and control method thereof based on current of USB devices connected to USB terminals

A method for reducing power consumption during bit line selection in memory circuits is disclosed. According to an exemplary aspect of the method, two adjacent memory cell arrays in memory circuits generally share a row of bit-line sense amplifiers. These sense amplifiers are usually connected to a memory cell array via a number of switches. These switches specifically connect the bit lines of each of two adjacent memory cell arrays to the row of sense amplifiers. By controlling the switches, the row of sense amplifiers can be directed to serve either one of the two adjacent memory cell arrays. The switches may be connected to a bit line select control line. To achieve the desired reduction of power consumption, the present invention controls the bit-line select control line in such a way that the bit-line select control line connected to a currently active memory cell array is switched only when the next memory operation involves an adjacent memory cell array sharing the same row of bit-line sense amplifiers controlled by such bit line select control line.
