A key generating method includes obtaining a first error correcting code (ECC) for original data, obtaining read data from a cell array of a memory comprising the original data, generating a second ECC for the read data, obtaining a location of a cell in which an error occurs from the cell array of the memory in response to the second ECC being different from the first ECC, and generating a key for the memory based on the location of the cell in which the error occurs.

Key generating method and apparatus using characteristic of memory

An authentication method includes projecting a near infrared (NIR) ray using a light emitting diode (LED) of a terminal, receiving a light reflected by a vein of a user using an image sensor of the terminal, verifying whether an image generated using the received light exhibits a vein pattern, in response to the image generated using the received light being verified as exhibiting the vein pattern, generating a vein pattern of the vein based on an image generated using the received light, and in response to the generated vein pattern being determined to match a pre-stored vein pattern, authenticating the user as a registered user corresponding to the pre-stored vein pattern.

Method and apparatus with vein pattern authentication

A mobile terminal and a control method therefor are disclosed. According to at least one embodiment of the present invention, it is able to provide a mobile terminal capable of reducing consumed power by controlling an alarm period for waking up an application performing synchronization with a server and a method of controlling therefor. Moreover, according to at least one embodiment of the present invention, it is able to provide a solution for controlling an alarm period of an application.

Mobile terminal and control method therefor

A method and apparatus for authenticating a user using a vein pattern are provided that project a near infrared (NIR) ray toward a skin of the user using a light emitting diode (LED), where the user is adjacent to a terminal including the LED. An image sensor receives a light reflected by the skin, generates a vein pattern of the skin based on an image generated using the received light, and authenticates the user as a registered user of a pre-stored vein pattern when the generated vein pattern matches the pre-stored vein pattern.

Method and apparatus for authenticating user using vein pattern

A method and apparatus for estimating a depth, and a method and apparatus for training an distance estimator are provided, wherein the method for estimating a depth may include obtaining an image, and estimating a depth of a second image object based on a correlation between a first image object and the second image object in the image and a depth of the first image object.

Method and apparatus for estimating depth, and method and apparatus for training distance estimator

A method and an apparatus for recognizing a touch gesture are disclosed, in which the apparatus may obtain a depth image in which a touch object and a background area are captured, detect a touch input applied by the touch object to the background area in a touch detection area, and recognize a touch gesture associated with the touch input by tracking a change in the touch input.

Method and apparatus for recognizing touch gesture

A portable device for outputting virtual vibration is provided. The portable device includes a controller configured to generate a control signal corresponding to a detected event. The portable device also includes vibrators configured to output virtual vibration based on the control signal.

Portable device for outputting virtual vibration using vibrators

A portable device and user input method of the portable device using a virtual input area is provided. The portable device may include a sensor configured to sense a user input to an input area, the input area being at least a portion of an area adjacent to the portable device, a determiner configured to determine a target object corresponding to the user input among at least one input object displayed on the portable device, based on an arrangement of the at least one input object, and a controller configured to generate a control command to control the target object.

User input method for use in portable device using virtual input area

A tactile feedback apparatus may include: a touch display configured to display objects; a tactile information extractor configured to extract tactile information corresponding to an object touched by a touch input tool; a tactile information changing unit configured to change the tactile information based on sensing information of the touch input tool; and/or a tactile feedback provider configured to provide the touch input tool with tactile feedback based on the tactile information.
