View sensor, home control system including view sensor, and method of controlling home control system

A method of displaying an image by using a plurality of display apparatuses and a display apparatus using the same are provided. The method includes controlling a first image to be divided into a plurality of first sub-images which correspond to a number of a plurality of display apparatuses and displaying the plurality of first sub-images, receiving a signal to change a first sub-image of the first image displayed on a first display apparatus to a second image, and in response to receiving the signal, controlling the second image to be displayed on the first display apparatus and controlling the first image to be re-divided into a plurality of second sub-images corresponding to a number of a group of plurality of display apparatuses among the plurality of display apparatuses and displaying the plurality of second sub-images on the group of the plurality of display apparatuses.

Method of displaying image by using a plurality of display apparatuses and electronic apparatus controlling a plurality of display apparatuses

A function upgrade device, a display apparatus, and a method for controlling a display apparatus are provided. The function upgrade device may include a function unit configured to perform a function in conjunction with the display apparatus, a storage configured to store user information and an application related to the function unit, an interface configured to connect the function upgrade device to the display apparatus and enable the function upgrade device to communicate with the display apparatus, and a controller configured to, when the display apparatus is connected to the function upgrade device through the interface, control the function unit to operate in conjunction with the display apparatus based on the user information and the application stored in the storage.

Function upgrade device, display apparatus and method for controlling display apparatus thereof

The image generating device includes: a first camera configured to photograph a depth image of a subject using a first light; a second camera configured to photograph a color image of the subject by converting a second light into an image signal; a view angle extender configured to change a view angle, wherein the view angle is an angle at which the first camera and the second camera are operable to photograph the subject; and a controller configured to control the view angle extender to change the view angle of the first camera and the second camera and to form a single depth image and a single color image by respectively synthesizing a plurality of depth images and a plurality of color images, photographed by the first camera and the second camera.

Image generating device, 3D image display system having the same and control methods thereof

A display device, a mobile device, a system including the same, and an image quality matching method thereof are provided. According to the method, the mobile device acquires a first acquired image that is an image of a first displayed image being displayed on the first display device and a second acquired image that is an image of a second displayed image being displayed on the second display device, compares the first acquired image and the second acquired image with each other, determines an image quality correction value for the first display device so that an image quality of the first displayed image is made substantially equal to an image quality of the second displayed image, and transmits the determined image quality correction value to the first display device or the second display device.

Display device, mobile device, system including the same, and image quality matching method thereof

A display apparatus, control method, and system are provided. The display apparatus includes a display; one or more loudspeakers; a signal processor configured to process an image signal so that an image may be displayed on the display and sound may be output from the loudspeaker; a communication interface configured to communicate with one or more external display apparatuses; and a controller configured to transmit sound processed by the signal processor to the one or more loudspeakers in accordance with a preset output designation state, determine a divided and displayed state of an image with respect to the display apparatus and the one or more external display apparatuses, and adjust the output designation state of the sound with respect to the one or more loudspeakers based on the determination.

Display apparatus, control method thereof, and display system

Disclosed are a display apparatus and a control method thereof, in which displays are moved to display an image on a visible screen formed by a plurality of images. The display apparatus includes: a first display configured to display a first screen; a second display configured to display a second screen; and a controller configured to control an area of one visible screen formed by the first and second screens by changing at least one area of the first screen and the second screen, determine a first portion and a second portion of an image to be displayed so that the area of the visible screen corresponds to an area of the image, and controls the image to be respectively displayed on the first screen and the second screen.

Display apparatus and control method thereof

Disclosed are a display apparatus and a method for preventing divulgence of image data thereof which may prevent image information including image data photographed by a camera of the display apparatus from being divulged by hacking, etc. The display apparatus includes a camera which captures an image; a display which displays the image thereon based on image data captured by the camera; a communicator which communicates with an outside of the apparatus through an Internet; and a controller which transmits image information including the image data captured by the camera, in the form of a transmission packet including the image data and a detection mark or indicator capable of detecting or indicating that the image data is to be transmitted to the outside, when the image information is to be transmitted to the outside through the communicator.

Display apparatus and method for preventing divulgence of image information thereof

An apparatus and method of reducing power consumption in a station on a wireless LAN is provided. Included is a cumulative lead time frame receiver, a self lead time frame production transmission unit, an inactive state cumulative lead time count unit, and an active state converter. When a predetermined station is in an active state, the cumulative lead time frame receiver receives a cumulative lead time frame including a cumulative lead time value from a coordinator. If the cumulative lead time value included in the cumulative lead time frame received by the cumulative lead time frame receiver is effective, the inactive state cumulative lead time count unit converts the active state of the predetermined station into an inactive state, in which less power is consumed. If the inactive state cumulative lead time count unit completes counting, the active state converter converts the inactive state into the active state.
