Provided are an image processing apparatus and an image processing method thereof. The image processing method extracts at least one texture area from an input image according to at least one texture feature of an object, processing, for each texture area of the extracted at least one texture area, the texture area using an image set value respectively corresponding to the texture area, and combining the at least one texture area that is processed by the processing and outputting the combined at least one texture area.

Apparatus and method for processing image

A display apparatus and a method for applying an OSD applying thereto. The display apparatus maintains the depth of the OSD to be displayed on the screen at a specific depth if the depth of a 3D image is adjusted. Accordingly, even if the depth of the 3D image is adjusted, the depth of the OSD remains the same. Therefore, a user may be provided with the OSD of which depth does not change even if the depth of the 3D image is adjusted.

Display apparatus and method for applying on-screen display (OSD) thereto

Provided are an apparatus and method for converting a two-dimensional (2D) image into a three-dimensional (3D) image. The method includes generating a first depth map by estimating depth information of an input image, wherein the input image is a 2D image; analyzing characteristics of the input image; predicting an error of the first depth map; determining a parameter for adjusting the first depth map based on the analyzed characteristics of the input image and the predicted error of the first depth map; adjusting the first depth map based on the determined parameter; and generating a 3D image of the input image based on the adjusted first depth map.

Method and apparatus for converting 2-dimensional image into 3-dimensional image by adjusting depth of the 3-dimensional image

A three-dimensional (3D) video apparatus and a method of providing an OSD object applied thereto are provided. The 3D video apparatus includes an on-screen display (OSD) generation unit which receives an OSD object and generates a reduced OSD object to be displayed on the 3D image on a screen, wherein the reduced OSD object is smaller than the received OSD object. An OSD insertion unit inserts the reduced OSD object into input 3D image data.

Three-dimensional video apparatus and method providing on screen display applied thereto

An apparatus for generating depth information includes: a receiver which receives a two-dimensional (2D) image signal including a plurality of frames; a user input unit; a user interface (UI) generator which generates a tool UI to input guide information for generating depth information; a display unit which displays a frame for which depth information is generated among the plurality of frames, and the generated tool UI; and a depth information generator which generates depth information corresponding to the guide information input by the user input unit through the tool UI.

Apparatus and method for generating depth information

Disclosed is a multimedia portable electronic device including a first housing, a second housing coupled to the first housing so as to rotate about a first hinge axis, a third housing adapted to slide while facing the first housing, a fourth housing connected to the third housing so as to rotate about a second hinge axis to be folded/unfolded, a connection device positioned between the first and fourth housings so that the connection device rotates about a third hinge axis to slide the third housing when the fourth housing is folded on or unfolded from the third housing, and a sliding device positioned between the first and third housings so that the third housing can slide.
