Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a device control apparatus and method, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method for controlling a sensory / emotional effect device that increases a user's experience by using a user's preference and surrounding environment information.
In the past, analog broadcasting has changed from digital broadcasting to digital broadcasting, and users' demands for contents have been increasing. Following HDTV broadcasting and 3DTV broadcasting, the resolution of contents is rapidly increasing up to UHDTV, and the viewer's visual satisfaction is raised.
In recent years, interest in realistic content consumption represented by words such as realistic media, augmented reality, increasing and decreasing reality, 4D, and emotional ICT is increasing. This is shifting from a form consuming contents represented by video and audio in the past to consuming a combination of contents and user's senses, emotions, and environmental factors so that users can feel as if they are the main characters in the contents.
Proper stimulation of other senses such as olfactory and tactile senses as well as conventional vision and hearing are required to increase the user's five senses. To this end, there is a growing interest in sensory effects services using devices that provide effects that stimulate sensations such as lighting, temperature, wind, vibration, aroma, motion, as well as ultra-high resolution 3D video and multi-channel audio.
ISO / IEC 23005 (MPEG-V), which has been ongoing since 2008 as a representative international standard for enhancing user experience, is composed of 7 parts in total. Part-2 (Control information) defines user preference meta data (User preference) and device capability meta data (Device capability). In addition, Part-3 (Sensory information) defines sensory effect. Part-4 (Virtual world objects) provides definition of object / characteristic and avatar of virtual environment. And Data formats for device interactions standardize metadata for sensor and device commands. The MPEG-V standard is intended to standardize the interface between the virtual space and the real space so that the user can accurately convey the sensory effect intended to be provided even in a heterogeneous device or broadcasting environment.
This sensory / emotional effect service can maximize the immersion, realism, and sense of unity of the contents of the non - disabled people, and it is expected to be very helpful for education and rehabilitation of the disabled. However, in the case of the 4D theater, which is a representative service currently provided, it is not suitable for personalized consumption according to user's preference, rejection, environment, etc. by transmitting the sensation / sensitivity effect specific to contents equally to all users.

Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the scope of the patent application is not limited or limited by these embodiments. Like reference symbols in the drawings denote like elements.
The
In addition, the
The
In the present invention, a sensory / emotional effect service optimized for a user is provided by controlling a sensory / emotional effect device by combining environmental factors such as a user's preference, a discomfort index and an illuminance using temperature and humidity, Can be maximized.
As shown in the following Table 1, there is a slight difference in the discomfort ratio of the nation according to the nationality. However, when the discomfort index is 80 or more, at least 50% % Or more are felt to be uncomfortable.
[Table 1]
The discomfort index can be calculated by the dry bulb temperature ( Ta ) and the wet bulb temperature ( Tw ) according to Equation (1) below.
[Formula 1]
DI = 0.4 ㅧ ( Ta + Tw ) + 15
In this case, the unit of temperature is Fahrenheit (F), and Equation (1) is converted from Fahrenheit to Celsius temperature.
[Formula 2]
DI = 0.72 ( Td + Tw ) + 40.6
The unpleasantness index may be calculated by modifying Equation 2 using the temperature ta (° C) and the relative humidity RH (%) as shown in Equation 3 below.
[Formula 3]
DI = 9/5 * ta , -0.55 (1-RH) (9/5 * ta , -26) +32
Table 2 below shows the body sensation experienced by the user according to the discomfort index classified by the Korea Meteorological Administration.
[Table 2]
In other words, as shown in Table 2, if the discomfort index has a value between 75 and 80, half of the total population of the Republic of Korea feel uncomfortable, and if the discomfort index has a value of 80 or more, the entire population of the Republic of Korea may feel uncomfortable .
Table 3 below shows the illuminance standard stipulated in Korea KS A 3011.
[Table 3]
For example, if the user's environment is a living room in the home, the illuminance may be expected to be in the range of 60 to 100 to 150 LUX, and the sensory / emotional effect device related to the illumination may be used based on the illuminance, Lt; / RTI >
In the case of relative humidity, the Meteorological Agency presents the appropriate humidity for each temperature. For example, in summer, even if the temperature is high, if the humidity is low, it is tolerable, but if the humidity is high, it can feel hot. On the other hand, when the temperature is low in winter, when it is dry, it gets worse and when the temperature is low, when it is high, it can get cold.
Taking this into consideration, the Meteorological Agency recommends that the humidity of 70 RH% at 15 ° C, 60 RH% at 18 to 20 ° C, and 40 RH% at 24 ° C are appropriate. According to the indoor air quality standards of USA, Japan, and Korea, the minimum humidity limit is set at 30RH%. If it falls below the minimum, it will dry the mucous membranes and take away moisture from the eye or skin, causing flu, flu, dryness and itching.
Therefore, although it depends on the season, when the temperature is set to a range suitable for a person to live at 18 to 26 degrees Celsius, when the temperature rises, the humidity is lowered. When the temperature rises, % May be ideal.
