A gripper includes a body frame mounted on a magazine transfer robot. A first guide assembly is mounted on the body frame. A first gripping unit is movable along the first guide assembly. A second gripping unit is movable along the first guide assembly. A driver is configured to move the first gripping unit in a first direction. The driver is configured to move the second gripping unit in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The first gripping unit includes a first finger unit and a second finger unit independently moveable with respect to the first finger unit. The second gripping unit is spaced apart from the first gripping unit. The second gripping unit includes a third finger unit and a fourth finger unit independently moveable with respect to the third finger unit.

A memory device having a resume function is provided. The memory device provides the resume function that generates and stores reproduction history information when reproduction of data is stopped due to the generation of an interrupt, providing the production history information to a newly connected reproducing apparatus, and resuming reproducing of the data from a location where the reproduction of the data had previously been stopped. Since the reproduction history information is stored in the memory device, the data reproduction may be resumed from the location where reproduction of the data was stopped when the memory device is moved from one reproducing apparatus to another reproducing apparatus.

An apparatus and a method for aligning images obtained by a stereo camera apparatus are provided. The apparatus receives images from a first camera and a second camera and searches for a pixel block from an image obtained by one of the cameras (a non-reference camera) having the highest consistency ratio with a pixel block in a specific position of the image obtained by the other camera (a reference camera). Then, the apparatus changes a range of the region displayed on a screen among the image obtained by the non-reference camera according to the position of the searched pixel block to generate and output a stereoscopic image using an image having a screen display region focus of the respective cameras where the two cameras are aligned in the horizontal line.
