An example content playing apparatus includes an output unit configured to output an image and voice; a user recognition unit configured to recognize a plurality of users viewing content played by the output unit; and a controller configured to select at least one of the plurality of users based on predetermined criteria and control playing of the content according to the at least one selected user.

Control method of playing content and content playing apparatus performing the same

Provided are a method and an apparatus for searching for and acquiring information under a computing environment. The apparatus includes: at least one input device configured to receive a first query input of a first query type and a second query input of a second query type; and a controller configured to output a query input window including a first display item corresponding to the first query input and a second display item corresponding to the second query input, to automatically switch, in response to receiving the first query input, the apparatus from a first state to receive the first query input of the first query type to a second state to receive the second query input of the second query type, and to obtain a search result according to a query based on the first query input and the second query input.

Method for searching and device thereof

An example content playing apparatus includes an output device including a display and a speaker; and one or more controllers configured to recognize a plurality of users viewing content played by the output device, select at least one of the plurality of users based on one or more criteria, and control playing of the content according to the at least one selected user.

An apparatus for recognizing a user's motions based on sensor information and label information, a method for establishing an ONMF-based basis matrix, and a method for establishing an OSSNMF-based basis matrix are provided, where the basis matrices are used to extract motion features of the user. The apparatus for recognizing the user's motions may include a feature vector extractor configured to multiply a transposed matrix of an orthogonalized basis matrix by a sensor data matrix of frequency domain sensor data acquired from sensors to extract an ONMF-based feature vector and a multi-class classifier configured to use the extracted ONMF-based feature vector to classify the user's motion into a type from among types of a user's motions.

Method and apparatus for recognizing motion feature of user, using orthogonal semisupervised non-negative matrix factorization (OSSNMF)-based feature data

A method of managing data by a server includes receiving, from a client device, a signal that requests for a content list corresponding to a user account; selecting a content related to the user account and a file name generation rule corresponding to the user account; generating a file name of the content based on the file name generation rule; and providing the content list including the file name of the content to the client device.

Content management method and cloud server therefor

A context aware apparatus is provided. The context aware apparatus includes an extracting unit configured to extract a terminological-box (T-box) from a semantic model, a first generating unit configured to generate a reasoning rule based on the extracted T-box, a second generating unit configured to generate a first assertion-box (A-box) based on sensing information, and a reasoning unit configured to infer a user context based on the reasoning rule and the first A-box.

Context aware apparatus and method

Disclosed is a resonator for wireless power transmission used in a mobile device. The resonator includes a substrate, at least one microstrip line, and a magnetic core. The microstrip line is formed on the substrate and is provided at one side thereof with a slit to have an open-loop shape. The magnetic core is formed on the substrate and is disposed on a space defined by the microstrip line to increase coupling strength.

Resonator for wireless power transmission

An apparatus and method for testing a ubiquitous service or a ubiquitous device using a uniform object model are provided. Because a virtual ubiquitous environment is constructed with devices, services, users, layouts, and the like, physical construction of the ubiquitous environment to test services or devices is not needed. Therefore, the effectiveness of the ubiquitous device or service can be confirmed without requiring a ubiquitous environment to be physically constructed. Additionally, time or cost of constructing a ubiquitous environment can be reduced. Because a variety of environments can be easily constructed through the test of devices or services, the performances of the devices or services can also be improved.

Method and apparatus for testing ubiquitous service or device using uniform object model

A system and method for saving sensor power consumption based on context information on a wireless sensor network are provided. Basic context information is received from inside and outside of a network system including at least one sensor, wherein context information based on the basic context information is determined by inference, a group of expected services corresponding to the context information is determined, a sensor operation mode according to the group of expected services is determined, and control data is transmitted to the sensor according to the sensor operation mode. Accordingly, a sensor operation mode is adaptively determined according to changes of context information so that power consumption of a sensor can be saved.
