An image processing method and apparatus for automatically rotating an image and a display unit, and an information storage medium storing image information. The apparatus including a photographing unit which generates image data and a rotation sensing unit which generates rotational information of a rotation state of the photographing unit. When an object is photographed, the rotation information of the image is obtained and stored together, and when the image is displayed, the rotation is analyzed and the image and display unit are automatically rotated. When an image including moving picture information is watched, an image always optimized to be horizontal without additional work by a user can be seen.

The present invention relates to a device and method for managing metadata. A principal object of the present invention is to provide a device and method for managing metadata by which only key metadata can be selected and provided in accordance with their priorities upon playback of audio content by defining attributes of key metadata according to characteristics of the audio content. To achieve this object of the present invention, there is provided a method of managing metadata, comprising the steps of assigning priorities to attributes of key metadata according to characteristics of audio contents, reading the metadata for a specific audio content, extracting the attributes of respective metadata from the read metadata, classifying the extracted metadata attributes according to the assigned priorities and setting their priorities, and displaying the metadata for the audio content according to the set priorities. According to the present invention, there is an advantage in that major information on respective audio content can be efficiently provided to a user based on the metadata that are classified and selected according to the respective audio content.

A multiprocessor graphics system having a pixel link architecture, includes: 1) a plurality of sub-graphics systems each of which assigned to each of a plurality of sub-screens provided by sectioning a display screen; and 2) a ring network for connecting the plurality of sub-graphics systems. Each of the sub-graphics systems includes a geometry engine, a raster engine, a local frame buffer and a pixel distributor. An interconnection network bottleneck between the raster engine and frame buffer is removed and a conventional memory system can be used by reducing the number of data transmissions between the raster engine and frame buffer while maintaining image parallelism and object parallelism.

A real-time rendering method for selectively performing bump mapping and Phong shading processes and a rendering apparatus therefor are provided. The rendering method includes the step of calculating a ambient factor, the step of bump-mapping a diffuse factor and selectively outputting the bump-mapped diffuse factor or the diffuse factor prior to the bump mapping according to a bump mapping/Phong shading selection signal, the step of bump-mapping a specular factor and selectively outputting the bump-mapped specular factor or the specular factor prior to the bump mapping according to the bump mapping/Phong shading selection signal and the step of summing the ambient factor, the selectively output diffuse factor and the selectively output specular factor and obtaining the value of intensity. Therefore, bump mapping and Phong shading processes are selectively performed. Also, there is no discontinuity at the borders of each polygon. In addition, the rendering apparatus can be easily realized due to its simple structure.

An element generator for a dither matrix comprises a logic device which receives a row address and a column address and performs a logic operation thereon so as to produce a dither element corresponding to the row address and the column address, which is implemented at low cost and has an advantage in that the processing speed is increased. The dithering apparatus comprises a dither-matrix element generator, a comparator, an adder and a selector. The comparator compares the output of the dither-matrix element generator with lower-bit data of the original image data. The adder adds a predetermined number to upper-bit data of the original image data. The selector selects one between the upper-bit data and the adder output, in accordance with the output of the comparator, so as to produce the selected one as the dithered image data. Dithering is thereby performed via hardware, which leads to an increased processing speed.
