Methods and apparatus are provided for obtaining a service is provided. Information about an external device is received at a terminal from the external device. It is determined whether the external device has been registered based on the information about the external device. Service information associated with the external device is provided when at least the external device has been registered.

Methods and apparatus for obtaining a service

A method and apparatus for managing content, where content received or generated in a device is automatically grouped and managed in real-time, and a computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for executing the method which includes detecting whether content is received or generated by a device, grouping the received or generated content with another received or generated content, and displaying the grouped content on the device, wherein the another content includes at least one content received or generated before the detected received or generated content.

Method, apparatus, and computer readable recording medium for automatic grouping and management of content in real-time

Methods and apparatuses are provided for configuring a screen of an electronic device. A first object, corresponding to a left eye of a user of the electronic device, and a second object, corresponding to a right eye of the user, are displayed on the screen. A threshold distance is obtained, which is one of a minimum distance and a maximum distance between the first object and the second object at which an image, corresponding to the first object and the second object, is properly viewed by the user. An interpupillary distance (IPD) is determined between the first eye and the second eye based on the threshold distance.

Method and apparatus for configuring screen for virtual reality

A mobile device, a method performed by the mobile device for receiving a service from a server, and a non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for executing the method performed by the mobile device are provided. The mobile device includes communication circuitry configured to receive a signal transmitted from a wireless transmitter; and a processor configured to determine identification information of the wireless transmitter based on the received signal and signal intensity information based on an intensity of the received signal, and provide the identification information and the determined signal intensity information to an application executed in the mobile device in order to send, to a server, a request for information based on the identification information and the determined signal intensity information.

Method and apparatus for providing service

Methods and apparatus are provided for generating a content of a display apparatus. The method includes receiving a user touch on the display apparatus; detecting an area on the display apparatus corresponding to the received user touch; and inserting and displaying an object into the detected area, wherein the inserting and displaying the object further comprises, in response to a command for inserting an object on the detected area included in the displayed user touch which is input by a user, displaying a list of a plurality of objects to be inserted.

Method for generating digital content by combining photographs and text messages

A mobile device and a method performed by the mobile device for receiving a service from a server are provided. The mobile device includes communication circuitry configured to receive a signal transmitted from a wireless transmitter, wherein the mobile device is located within a detectable range from the wireless transmitter; and a processor configured to determine signal intensity information based on an intensity of the received signal, and send, to a server, a request for information based on the determined signal intensity information.

A method for indicating a direction of content transfer intuitively and a device applying the same includes determining directions in which surrounding devices of the device are located, and a direction to which the content on a display of the device is to be moved, and transferring the content to the surrounding device located in the determined direction. Accordingly, it is possible to select a device to receive the content more easily and intuitively, and also input a command to select the device to receive the content and to transfer the content with one single manipulation.

Method for transmitting content with intuitively displaying content transmission direction and device using the same

Methods and apparatus are provided for generating a content of a display apparatus. A user touch is received. An area corresponding to the received user touch is detected. A object is inserted and displayed into the detected area.

A mobile device and a method performed by the mobile device for receiving a service from a service providing apparatus are provided. The method includes receiving a signal which is emitted from the beacon apparatus, wherein the mobile device is located within vicinity of the beacon apparatus; determining an intensity of the received signal; requesting the service providing apparatus for a service based on the determined intensity; and receiving the service from the service providing apparatus.

An image processing method includes segmenting a series of obtained images, calculating a central point of each segment, and obtaining a target object based on movement variance of the central points of segments in the series of images.

Image processing method and apparatus

A method and apparatus for providing a service in a service providing device are provided. The method includes receiving, from a terminal, information about a wireless transmitter/receiver whose vicinity the terminal is located within; determining a differentiated service to be provided to the terminal according to the received information about the wireless transmitter/receiver; and providing the determined differentiated service to the terminal.

A method for generating digital content where an intermediary figure included in an inputted image is perceived, a digital object is inserted into a location where the intermediary figure is displayed, and digital content, which is the image into which the digital object is inserted, is displayed. Accordingly, the user can generate digital content easily using a touch screen.
