FIG. 5 is a block diagram illustrating a detailed configuration of the control unit of FIGS. 2 to 4 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG.

An example of the control unit includes a demultiplexer 510, an image processor 5520, an OSD generator 540, a mixer 550, a frame rate converter (FRC) 555, And may include a formatter 560. The control unit may further include a voice processing unit and a data processing unit.

The demultiplexer 510 demultiplexes the input stream. For example, the demultiplexer 510 may demultiplex the received MPEG-2 TS video, audio, and data signals. Here, the stream signal input to the demultiplexer 510 may be a stream signal output from a tuner, a demodulator, or an external device interface.

The mixer 550 mixes the OSD data generated by the OSD generator 540 and the image signal processed by the image processor, and provides the mixed image to the formatter 560. Since the decoded video signal and the OSD data are mixed, the OSD is overlaid on the broadcast image or the external input image.

A frame rate conversion unit (FRC) 555 converts a frame rate of an input image. For example, the frame rate conversion unit 555 may convert the frame rate of the input 60 Hz image to have a frame rate of 120 Hz or 240 Hz, for example, in accordance with the output frequency of the display unit. As described above, there are various methods for converting the frame rate. For example, when converting the frame rate from 60 Hz to 120 Hz, the frame rate conversion unit 555 may insert the same first frame between the first frame and the second frame, Three frames can be inserted. As another example, when converting the frame rate from 60 Hz to 240 Hz, the frame rate conversion unit 555 may insert and convert three or more identical frames or predicted frames between existing frames. On the other hand, when the frame conversion is not performed, the frame rate conversion unit 555 may be bypassed.

The formatter 560 changes the output of the input frame rate conversion unit 555 to match the output format of the display unit. For example, the formatter 560 may output R, G, and B data signals, and the R, G, and B data signals may be output as low voltage differential signals (LVDS) or mini-LVDS . If the output of the input frame rate converter 555 is a 3D video signal, the formatter 560 may configure and output the 3D format according to the output format of the display unit to support the 3D service through the display unit.

On the other hand, the voice processing unit (not shown) in the control unit can perform the voice processing of the demultiplexed voice signal. Such a voice processing unit (not shown) may support processing various audio formats. For example, even when a voice signal is coded in a format such as MPEG-2, MPEG-4, AAC, HE-AAC, AC-3, or BSAC, a corresponding decoder can be provided.

In addition, the voice processing unit (not shown) in the control unit can process the base, the treble, the volume control, and the like.

A data processing unit (not shown) in the control unit can perform data processing of the demultiplexed data signal. For example, the data processing unit can decode the demultiplexed data signal even when it is coded. Here, the encoded data signal may be EPG information including broadcast information such as a start time and an end time of a broadcast program broadcasted on each channel.

Meanwhile, the above-described broadcast receiver is an example according to the present invention, and each component can be integrated, added, or omitted according to specifications of a broadcast receiver actually implemented. That is, if necessary, two or more components may be combined into one component, or one component may be divided into two or more components.

The broadcast receiver described in this specification uses the Web OS as an OS and / or a platform. Hereinafter, a processing procedure such as a configuration or an algorithm based on the Web OS can be performed in the control unit of the broadcast receiver or the like. Here, the control unit includes the control unit in FIGS. 2 to 5 described above and uses it as a broad concept. Accordingly, in order to process a service, an application, a content, and the like related to a Web OS in a broadcast receiver, a hardware or a component including related software, firmware, Named and explained.

Such a Web OS-based platform is intended to enhance development independence and function scalability by integrating services and applications based on, for example, a luna-service bus, Productivity can be increased. Also, multi-tasking can be supported by efficiently utilizing system resources through Web OS process and resource management.

Meanwhile, the Web OS can be used not only as a fixed device such as a PC, a TV, and a set-top box (STB) but also as a mobile device such as a mobile phone, a smart phone, a tablet PC,

The structure of software for broadcast receivers has traditionally been a single process and a closed product based on multi-threading with monolithic structure that is problem-solving and market-dependent. ), And has since been struggling with external applications. Since then, it has been pursuing global-based platform development, pursuing cost innovation through chip-set replacement and streamlining of UI application and external application development, layering and composing and componentization were done to have a three-layered structure and an add-on structure for add-ons, single source products, and open applications. More recently, the software architecture has provided a modular architecture for functional units, a Web Open API (Application Programming Interface) for the echo-system, and a game engine And a native open API (Native Open API), and thus, a multi-process structure based on a service structure is being created.

7 is a diagram illustrating a Web OS architecture according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 7, the architecture of the Web OS platform will be described below.

The platform can be largely classified into a kernel, a system library-based Web OS core platform, an application, and a service.

The architecture of the Web OS platform is layered structure, with OS at the lowest layer, system libraries at the next layer, and services at the top.

First, the lowest layer includes a Linux kernel as an OS layer, and can include Linux as an OS of the broadcast receiver.

The OS layer is provided with a BOS (Board Support Package) / HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) layer, a Web OS core modules layer, a service layer, a Luna-Service layer Bus layer, Native Developer's Kit (NDK) / QT layer (Enyo framework / NDK / QT layer), and Application layer in the uppermost layer.

Meanwhile, some layers of the above-described Web OS layer structure may be omitted, or a plurality of layers may be one layer, or one layer may have a plurality of layer structures.

The Web OS core module layer is based on LSM (Luna Surface Manager) for managing surface windows and the like, SAM (System & Application Management) for managing application execution and execution status, and Web kit And a WAM (Web Application Manager) for managing a web application and the like.

The LSM manages an application window displayed on the screen. The LSM manages display hardware (Display HW) and provides a buffer for rendering contents necessary for applications. The LSM composes the results of rendering by a plurality of applications, Can be output.

The SAM manages various conditional execution policies of the system and the application.

WAM, on the other hand, recommends application development based on the Enyo Framework because webOS can be regarded as a basic application.

The use of an application's service is done via a luna-service bus, a new service can be registered on the bus, and an application can find and use the service it needs.

The service layer may include various service level services such as TV service and Web OS service. The Web OS service may include a media server, a Node.JS, and the like. Here, the Node.JS service supports, for example, javascript.

Web OS services can communicate over the bus to a Linux process that implements function logic. It can be divided into four parts. It is developed by TV process and existing netcast (NetCast) to be migrated to Web OS, services that are differentiated by manufacturer, Web OS common service and JavaScript, and Node.js And a Node.js service that is used over the Internet.

The application layer may include all applications that can be supported by a broadcast receiver, such as a TV application, a showcase application, a native application, a Web application, and the like.

An application on the Web OS can be classified into a Web application, a PDK (Palm Development Kit) application, a Qt (Qt Markup Language) application, and the like depending on the implementation method.

The web application is based on a WebKit engine and is executed on a WAM runtime. These web applications can be based on the ENI framework or developed on the basis of regular HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript.

The PDK application includes a native application developed in C / C ++ based on a PDK provided for third-party or external developers. The PDK refers to a development library and a tool set provided for a third party such as a game to develop a native application (C / C ++). For example, PDK applications can be used to develop applications where performance is critical.

The QML application is a native application based on Qt, and includes a basic application provided with the Web OS platform such as a card view, a home dashboard, and a virtual keyboard. Here, QML can develop an application in a mark-up language as a script instead of C ++, thereby improving development productivity.

Native means an application that is developed and compiled in C / C ++ and executed in a binary form. The native application has a high speed of execution.

8 is a diagram illustrating an architecture of a Web OS device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

8 is a block diagram based on the runtime of the Web OS device, which can be understood with reference to the layered structure of FIG.

7 and 8, the following will be described.

Referring to FIG. 8, services and applications and WebOS core modules are included on the system OS (Linux) and system libraries, and communication between them can be done via the Luna-Service bus.

E-mail, contact, calendar, etc. Node.js services based on HTML5, CSS, java script, logging, backup, file notify Web OS services such as notify, database (DB), activity manager, system policy, audio daemon (AudioD), update, media server, TV services such as Electronic Program Guide (PVD), Personal Video Recorder (PVR), data broadcasting, voice recognition, Now on, Notification, search, Such as CP services such as Auto Content Recognition (ACR), Contents List Broker (CBOX), wfdd, DMR, Remote Application, Download, SDPIF, PDK applications, Native applications, and the ENI framework Based UI-related TV applications and Web applications are processed through the Luna-Service bus through the Web OS core modules such as SAM, WAM, and LSM described above. Meanwhile, in the above, TV applications and Web applications may not necessarily be UI-based or UI-related.

CBOX and connectivity can manage the list and metadata of external device content such as USB, DLNA, and cloud connected to TV. Meanwhile, the CBOX can output a content listing of various content containers such as a USB, a DMS, a DVR, and a cloud to an integrated view. In addition, the CBOX can display various types of content listings such as pictures, music, video, and manage the metadata information. In addition, the CBOX can output the contents of the attached storage in real-time. For example, when a storage device such as a USB is plugged in, the CBOX must be able to immediately output the content list of the storage device. At this time, a standardized method for processing the content listing may be defined. In addition, CBOX can accommodate various connection protocols.

The SAM is intended to improve module complexity and scalability. For example, the existing system manager (System Manager) processes various functions such as system UI, window management, web application runtime, and UX constraint processing in one process to separate the main functions Clarify the implementation interface by clarifying the interface.

LSM supports independent development and integration of system UX implementations such as card view, launcher, etc., and supports easy modification of product requirements. On the other hand, LSM can provide a window management mechanism for multi-window and 21: 9 etc. by allowing multi-tasking by maximizing hardware resource (HW resource) have.

LSM supports the default implementation of system UI based on QML and improves development productivity of system UI. Based on MVC, QML UX can easily construct views for layouts and UI components, and can easily develop code for handling user input. On the other hand, the interface between the QML and the Web OS component is via the QML extension plug-in, and the graphics operation of the application can be based on the wayland protocol and the luna-service call.

LSM is an abbreviation of Luna Surface Manager, as described above, which functions as an Application Window Compositor.

LSM synthesizes independently generated application and UI components together on the screen. In relation to this, when components such as Recents application, Showcase application, Launcher application etc render their own contents, LSM defines the output area and interworking method as a compositor. In other words, the compositor LSM handles graphics synthesis, focus management, and input events. At this time, the LSM receives an event, a focus, and the like from the input manager. The input manager may include an HID such as an IR remote controller, a magic remote controller, a mouse & keyboard, a joystick, a game pad, an application remote, and a pen touch.

As such, LSM supports multiple window models, which can be executed simultaneously in all applications due to the nature of the system UI. LSM can support launcher, recents, settings, notifications, system keyboard, volume UI, search, finger gesture, voice recognition (STT, NLP), pattern gesture (camera, MRCU) have.

FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating a graphic composition flow in a Web OS device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG.

9, the graphic composition processing is performed through a Web application manager 910 in charge of a UI process, a webkit 920 in charge of a web process, an LSM 930, and a graphic manager 940 .

When the web application-based graphic data (or application) is generated as a UI process in the web application manager 910, the generated graphic data is transferred to the LSM 940 if the generated graphic data is not a full-screen application. On the other hand, the Web application manager 910 receives an application generated by the Webkit 920 for GPU memory sharing for graphic management between the UI process and the Web process, and when it is not a full-screen application as described above, (930). In the case of the full-screen application, the LSM 930 may be bypassed and directly transmitted to the graphic manager 940.

The LSM 930 transmits the received UI application to the wayland compositor via the weir surface, and the weir composer appropriately processes the received UI application and transmits it to the graphic manager. The graphic data transmitted from the LSM 930 is transmitted to the graphic manager composer via the LSM GM surface of the graphic manager 940, for example.

On the other hand, the full-screen application is passed directly to the graphics manager 940 without going through the LSM 930, as described above, and this application is processed in the graphics manager compositor via the WAM GM surface.

The graphic manager processes all the graphic data in the Web OS device. It receives all of the graphic data passed through the GM surface such as the data broadcasting application, the caption application, as well as the data passed through the LSM GM surface and the WAM GM surface, So as to properly output the image data. Here, the functions of the GM compositor are the same or similar to those of the compositor described above.

FIG. 10 is a view for explaining a media server according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 11 is a view for explaining a configuration block diagram of a media server according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 12 Is a diagram illustrating a relationship between a media server and a TV service according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The media server supports the execution of various multimedia in the broadcast receiver and manages necessary resources. In this regard, the media server can efficiently use hardware resources required for media play. For example, the media server needs audio / video hardware resources for multimedia execution, and can manage the resource usage status and utilize it effectively. In this regard, in a fixed device having a large screen differently from a mobile device, hardware resources are required in multimedia execution. Also, because of the large amount of data, encoding / decoding and transmission of graphic data must be fast. Meanwhile, the media server simultaneously performs recording, broadcasting, recording and tuning tasks in addition to streaming and file-based playback, or simultaneous display of a sender and a receiver screen during a video call And the like. However, the media server limits the number of hardware resources such as encoders, decoders, tuners, display engines, and the like to each chip-set.

The media server can robust the system stability. For example, the media server may remove and re-start the playback pipeline in which an error occurs during media playback, on a per-pipeline basis, and may not affect other media plays in the event of an error. Such a pipeline is a chain connecting unit functions such as decoding, analysis, and output upon request for media reproduction, and the necessary unit functions may be changed according to a media type.

The media server must have extensibility. The media server can add a new type of pipeline without affecting existing implementations. For example, it should be able to accommodate cameras, video conferencing (Skype), and third-party pipelines.

The media server can process general media playback and TV task execution as separate services. This is because the interface of the TV service is different from the case of the media playback. In the case of TV service, it has operations such as 'setchannel', 'channelup', 'channeldown', 'channeltuning', and 'recordstart'. In general media playback, operations such as 'play', 'pause' and 'stop' It is preferable that both have different operations and are processed as separate services.

The media server can control or integrally manage the resource management function. In the media server, hardware resource allocation and retrieval are integrated in the media server, and the TV service process delivers the task and the resource allocation status to the media server. For each media execution, the resources are acquired and the pipeline is executed. Based on the resource status occupied by each pipeline, the media server permits execution by priority in the media execution request and recovers resources of other pipelines . To this end, a predefined execution priority and the required resource information for a particular request are managed by the policy manager.

The media server may have an identification factor associated with all playback related operations. For example, the media server may issue a command to indicate a particular pipeline based on the identifier. The media server may separate the two into pipelines for playback of more than one media.

The media server may be responsible for playback of the HTML 5 standard media.

In addition, the media server may follow the TV restructuring scope of the TV pipeline as a separate service process. The media server can be designed regardless of the TV restructuring scope. If the TV is not a separate service process, it may be necessary to re-execute the entire TV when there is a problem with a specific task.

The media server is also referred to as uMS, that is, a micro media server. Here, the media player is a media client, for example, an HTML5 video tag, a camera, a TV, a Skype, a second screen, Can be referred to as a webkit (Webkit).

In the media server, management of micro resources such as a resource manager and a policy manager is a core function. In this regard, the media server also controls the playback control role for the web standard media content. In this regard, the media server may also manage pipeline controller resources.

Such a media server supports, for example, extensibility, reliability, efficient resource usage, and the like.

In other words, the uMS, or media server, can be used in a Web OS device such as a cloud game, a MVPD (pay service), a camera preview, a second screen, a second screen, a Skype, And controls the use of resources for appropriate processing in a general manner to control and control the resources so that they can be efficiently used. On the other hand, each resource uses, for example, a pipeline in its use, and the media server can manage and control the generation, deletion, and use of a pipeline for resource management as a whole.

Here, the pipeline refers to, for example, when a media associated with a task starts a series of operations, such as parsing of a request, a decoding stream, and a video output, . For example, with respect to a TV service or an application, watching, recording, channel tuning, and the like are each individually handled under the control of resource utilization through a pipeline generated according to the request .

The processing structure and the like of the media server will be described in more detail with reference to FIG.

10, an application or service is connected via a luna-service bus 1010 to a media server 1020 and the media server 1020 is connected to the pipeline (s) 1030, 1040, 1050, etc.).

The application or service can have various clients depending on its characteristics and can exchange data with the media server 1020 or the pipeline 1040 through it.

The client includes, for example, a uMedia client (web kit) and a RM (resource manager) client (C / C ++) for connection with the media server 1020.

The application including the uMedia client is connected to the media server 1020, as described above. More specifically, the uMedia client corresponds to, for example, a video object to be described later, and the client uses the media server 1020 for the operation of video by a request or the like.

Here, the video operation relates to the video state, and the loading, unloading, play, playback, or reproduce, pause, stop, Data may be included. Each operation or state of such video can be processed through individual pipeline generation. Accordingly, the uMedia client sends the state data associated with the video operation to the pipeline manager 1022 in the media server.

The pipeline manager 1022 obtains information on resources of the current device through data communication with the resource manager 1024 and requests resource allocation corresponding to the state data of the uMedia client. At this time, the pipeline manager 1022 or the resource manager 1024 controls resource allocation through the data communication with the policy manager 1026 when necessary in connection with the resource allocation or the like. For example, when the resource manager 1024 requests or does not have resources to allocate according to a request of the pipeline manager 1022, appropriate resource allocation or the like may be performed according to the priority comparison of the policy manager 1026 or the like .

On the other hand, the pipeline manager 1022 requests the media pipeline controller 1028 to generate a pipeline for an operation according to the request of the uMedia client with respect to resources allocated according to the resource allocation of the resource manager 1024 .

The media pipeline controller 1028 generates necessary pipelines under the control of the pipeline manager 1022. [ The pipeline thus generated can generate a pipeline related to the media pipeline 1030, camera pipeline, as well as playback, pause, stop, etc., as shown. Meanwhile, the pipeline may include HTML5, Web CP, smartshare playback, thumbnail extraction, pipeline for NDK, cinema, MHEG, and the like.

In addition, the pipeline may include, for example, a service-based pipeline (its own pipeline) 1040 and a URI-based pipeline (media pipeline) 1050.

Referring to FIG. 10, an application or service including an RM client may not be directly connected to the media server 1020. This is because the application or service may directly process the media. In other words, if the application or service directly processes the media, it may not pass through the media server. However, at this time, resource management is required for pipeline creation and its use, for which the uMS connector 1032 in the service-based pipeline 1040 functions. The uMS connector 1032 communicates with the media server 1020 including the resource manager 1024 when a resource management request for direct media processing of the application or service is received. To this end, the media server 1020 must also include an uMS connector 1029.

Accordingly, the application or the service can respond to the request of the RM client by receiving the resource management of the resource manager through the uMS connectors 1029 and 1032. These RM clients can handle services such as native CP, TV service, 2nd screen, Flash player, YouTube Mediation Source Extensions (MSE), cloud games, and Skype. In this case, as described above, the resource manager 1024 can appropriately manage resources through data communication with the policy manager 1026 when necessary for resource management.

On the other hand, the URI-based pipeline is performed through the media server 1020 instead of processing the media directly as in the RM client described above. Such URI-based pipelines may include a player factory, a G streamer, a streaming plug-in, and a DRM plug-in pipeline.

On the other hand, the interface method between application and media services may be as follows.

One is a way to interface with a service in a web application. This is a way of using Luna Call using the Palm Service Bridge (PSB), or using Cordova, which extends the display to video tags. In addition, there may be a method of using the HTML5 standard for video tags or media elements.

The other is a method of interfacing with the PDK using a service.

Another is the way to use services from existing CPs. It can be used to extend existing platform plug-ins based on Luna for backward compatibility.

Finally, it is a way to interface in the case of non-Web OS. In this case, you can interface directly by calling the Luna bus.

TVWIN is a process for displaying TV on the screen without web OS before web OS boot. This is defined as the purpose of providing the basic function of TV service for quick response in case of power on since the web OS boot time is late. It is part of the TV service process and is a development area limited to fast boot, basic TV functions, and factory mode support functions. It is also responsible for switching from non-web OS mode to web OS mode.

Referring to FIG. 11, a processing structure of a media server is shown.

11, the solid line box represents the process processing configuration, and the dashed box represents the internal processing module during the process. In addition, the solid line arrows represent inter-process calls, that is, Luna service calls, and the dotted arrows may represent notifications or data flows such as register / notify.

A service or a web application or a PDK application (hereinafter 'application') is connected to various service processing configurations via a luna-service bus, through which an application is operated or controlled.

The data processing path depends on the type of application. For example, if the application is image data related to the camera sensor, the image data is transmitted to the camera processing unit 1140 and processed. At this time, the camera processing unit 1140 processes image data of the received application including a gesture, a face detection module, and the like. Here, the camera processor 1140 may generate a pipeline through the media server processing unit 1110 and process the data if the data is data that is requested by the user or automatically used by the pipeline, for example.

Alternatively, when the application includes audio data, the audio processing unit (AudioD) 1150 and the audio module (PulseAudio) 1160 can process the audio. For example, the audio processing unit 1150 processes the audio data received from the application and transmits it to the audio module 1160. At this time, the audio processing unit 1150 may include an audio policy manager to determine processing of audio data. The processed audio data is processed in the audio module 1160. Meanwhile, the application can notify data related to audio data processing to the audio module 1160, which can also perform the notification to the audio module 1160 in the associated pipeline.

Alternatively, when the application includes the DRM-attached content, the DRM service processing unit 1170 transmits the content data to the DRM service processing unit 1170, and the DRM service processing unit 1170 generates the DRM instance and processes the DRM- . Meanwhile, the DRM service processing unit 1170 may process the DRM pipeline in the media pipeline through the Luna-Service bus to process the DRM-enabled content data.

Hereinafter, processing in the case where the application is media data or TV service data (broadcast data) will be described.

FIG. 12 shows only the media server processing unit and the TV service processing unit in FIG. 11 described above in more detail.

Therefore, the following description will be made with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12. FIG.

First, when the application includes TV service data, it is processed in the TV service processing unit 1120/1220.

The TV service processing unit 1120 includes at least one of a DVR / channel manager, a broadcasting module, a TV pipeline manager, a TV resource manager, a data broadcasting module, an audio setting module, and a path manager. 12, the TV service processing unit 1220 includes a TV broadcast handler, a TV broadcast interface, a service processing unit, a TV middleware (TV MW (middleware)), a path manager, a BSP . Here, the service processing unit may be a module including, for example, a TV pipeline manager, a TV resource manager, a TV policy manager, a USM connector, and the like.

In this specification, the TV service processing unit may have a configuration as shown in Fig. 11 or 12, or may be implemented by a combination of both, in which some configurations are omitted or some configurations not shown may be added.

The TV service processing unit 1120/1220 transmits the DVR or channel related data to the DVR / channel manager based on the attribute or type of the TV service data received from the application, Create and process lines. On the other hand, when the attribute or type of the TV service data is broadcast content data, the TV service processing unit 1120 generates and processes the TV pipeline through the TV pipeline manager for processing the corresponding data via the broadcasting module.

Alternatively, a json (JavaScript standard object notation) file or a file created in c is processed by a TV broadcast handler and transmitted to a TV pipeline manager through a TV broadcast interface to generate and process a TV pipeline. In this case, the TV broadcast interface unit can transmit data or files that have passed through the TV broadcast handler to the TV pipeline manager based on the TV service policy, and can refer to the generated pipeline.

On the other hand, the TV pipeline manager can be controlled by the TV resource manager in generating one or more pipelines according to a TV pipeline creation request from a processing module in a TV service, a manager, or the like. Meanwhile, the TV resource manager can be controlled by the TV policy manager to request the status and allocation of resources allocated for the TV service according to the TV pipeline creation request of the TV pipeline manager, and the media server processing unit 1110 / 1210) and uMS connectors. The resource manager in the media server processing unit 1110/1210 transmits the status of the current TV service, the allocation permission, etc. according to the request of the TV resource manager. For example, if a resource manager in the media server processing unit 1110/1210 confirms that all the resources for the TV service have already been allocated, the TV resource manager can notify that all the resources are currently allocated. At this time, the resource manager in the media server processing unit, together with the notify, removes a predetermined TV pipeline according to a priority or a predetermined criterion among the TV pipelines preliminarily allocated for the TV service, And may request or assign generation. Alternatively, the TV resource manager can appropriately remove, add, or control the TV pipeline in the TV resource manager according to the status report of the resource manager in the media server processing unit 1110/1210.

Meanwhile, the BSP supports backward compatibility with existing broadcast receivers, for example.

The TV pipelines thus generated can be appropriately operated according to the control of the path manager in the process. The path manager can determine and control the processing path or process of the pipelines by considering not only the TV pipeline but also the operation of the pipeline generated by the media server processing unit 1110/1210.

Next, when the application includes media data, rather than TV service data, it is processed by the media server processing unit 1110/1210. Here, the media server processing units 1110 and 1210 include a resource manager, a policy manager, a media pipeline manager, a media pipeline controller, and the like. On the other hand, the pipeline generated according to the control of the media pipeline manager and the media pipeline controller can be variously generated such as a camera preview pipeline, a cloud game pipeline, and a media pipeline. On the other hand, the media pipeline may include a streaming protocol, an auto / static gstreamer, and a DRM, which can be determined according to the control of the path manager. The specific processing in the media server processing units 1110 and / or 1210 cites the description of FIG. 10 described above, and will not be repeated here.

The display device described in this specification includes a mobile phone, a smart phone, a laptop computer, a digital broadcasting terminal, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a portable multimedia player (PMP), a navigation device, a slate PC A tablet PC, an ultrabook, a wearable device such as a smartwatch, a smart glass, and a head mounted display (HMD). have.

Representative sensors among various sensors that can be included in the sensing unit 1340 will be described in more detail.

First, the proximity sensor 1341 refers to a sensor that detects the presence of an object approaching a predetermined detection surface, or the presence of an object in the vicinity of the detection surface, without mechanical contact by using electromagnetic force or infrared rays. The proximity sensor 1341 may be disposed in an inner area of a display device or a proximity sensor 1341 near the touch screen.

Examples of the proximity sensor 1341 include a transmission type photoelectric sensor, a direct reflection type photoelectric sensor, a mirror reflection type photoelectric sensor, a high frequency oscillation type proximity sensor, a capacitive proximity sensor, a magnetic proximity sensor, and an infrared proximity sensor. In the case where the touch screen is electrostatic, the proximity sensor 1341 can be configured to detect the proximity of the object with a change in the electric field along the proximity of the object having conductivity. In this case, the touch screen (or touch sensor) itself may be classified as a proximity sensor.

On the other hand, for convenience of explanation, the act of recognizing that the object is located on the touch screen in proximity with no object touching the touch screen is referred to as "proximity touch & The act of actually touching an object on the screen is called a "contact touch. &Quot; The position at which the object is closely touched on the touch screen means a position where the object corresponds to the touch screen vertically when the object is touched. The proximity sensor 141 can detect a proximity touch and a proximity touch pattern (e.g., a proximity touch distance, a proximity touch direction, a proximity touch speed, a proximity touch time, a proximity touch position, have. The control unit 1380 processes the data (or information) corresponding to the proximity touch operation and the proximity touch pattern sensed through the proximity sensor 1341 as described above, and further provides visual information corresponding to the processed data It can be output on the touch screen. Further, the control unit 1380 can control the display device 1300 such that different operations or data (or information) are processed depending on whether the touch to the same point on the touch screen is a proximity touch or a contact touch .

The touch sensor uses a touch (or touch input) applied to the touch screen (or the display unit 1351) by using at least one of various touch methods such as a resistance film type, a capacitive type, an infrared type, an ultrasonic type, Detection.

For example, the touch sensor may be configured to convert a change in a pressure applied to a specific portion of the touch screen or a capacitance generated in a specific portion to an electrical input signal. The touch sensor may be configured to detect a position, an area, a pressure at the time of touch, a capacitance at the time of touch, and the like where a touch object touching the touch screen is touched on the touch sensor. Here, the touch object may be a finger, a touch pen, a stylus pen, a pointer, or the like as an object to which a touch is applied to the touch sensor.

Thus, when there is a touch input to the touch sensor, the corresponding signal (s) is sent to the touch controller. The touch controller processes the signal (s) and transmits corresponding data to the controller 1380. Thus, the control unit 1380 can know which area of the display unit 1351 is touched or the like. Here, the touch controller may be a separate component from the control unit 1380, and may be the control unit 1380 itself.

On the other hand, the control unit 1380 can perform different controls or perform the same control according to the type of the touch object, which touches the touch screen (or a touch key provided on the touch screen). Whether to perform different controls or to perform the same control according to the type of the touch object may be determined according to the operating state of the current display device 1300 or an application program being executed.

On the other hand, the touch sensors and the proximity sensors discussed above can be used independently or in combination to provide a short touch (touch), a long touch, a multi touch, a drag touch ), Flick touch, pinch-in touch, pinch-out touch, swipe touch, hovering touch, and the like. Touch can be sensed.

The ultrasonic sensor can recognize the position information of the object to be sensed by using ultrasonic waves. On the other hand, the control unit 1380 can calculate the position of the wave generating source through the information sensed by the optical sensor and the plurality of ultrasonic sensors. The position of the wave source can be calculated using the fact that the light is much faster than the ultrasonic wave, that is, the time when the light reaches the optical sensor is much faster than the time the ultrasonic wave reaches the ultrasonic sensor. More specifically, the position of the wave generating source can be calculated using the time difference with the time when the ultrasonic wave reaches the reference signal.

The camera 1321 includes at least one of a camera sensor (for example, a CCD, a CMOS, etc.), a photo sensor (or an image sensor), and a laser sensor.

The photosensor can be laminated to the display element, which is adapted to scan the movement of the object to be detected proximate to the touch screen. More specifically, the photosensor mounts photo diodes and TRs (Transistors) in a row / column and scans the contents loaded on the photosensor using an electrical signal that varies according to the amount of light applied to the photo diode. That is, the photo sensor performs coordinate calculation of the object to be sensed according to the amount of change of light, and position information of the object to be sensed can be obtained through the calculation.

In addition, the 3D thumbnail image may generate a left image thumbnail and a right image thumbnail from the left image and right image of the original image frame, respectively, and may be generated as one image as they are combined. In general, a thumbnail means a reduced image or a reduced still image. The left image thumbnail and the right image thumbnail generated in this way are displayed on the screen with a difference of the left and right distance by the depth corresponding to the parallax between the left image and the right image, thereby exhibiting a stereoscopic spatial feeling.

The left and right images necessary for realizing the three-dimensional stereoscopic image can be displayed on the stereoscopic display unit by the stereoscopic processing unit. The stereoscopic processing unit receives a 3D image (an image at a reference time point and an image at an expansion point), sets a left image and a right image therefrom, or receives a 2D image and converts it into a left image and a right image.

Meanwhile, in the present invention, information processed in the display device can be displayed using a flexible display. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

14 is a conceptual diagram for explaining another example of the deformable display device 1400 according to the present invention.

As shown, the display unit 1451 can be configured to be deformable by an external force. The deformation may be at least one of warping, bending, folding, twisting, and curling of the display portion 1451. The deformable display portion 1451 may be referred to as a " flexible display portion ". Here, the flexible display unit 1451 may include both a general flexible display and electronic paper (e-paper) and combinations thereof. In general, the display device 1400 may include features of the display device 1300 of Figures 13A-13C or similar features.

A typical flexible display refers to a sturdy display that is lightweight and does not break easily, such as paper, formed on a thin, flexible substrate that can flex, bend, fold, twist, or curl like a conventional flat panel display.

In addition, the electronic paper is a display technology to which general ink characteristics are applied, and the point that the reflected light is used is different from the conventional flat panel display. The electronic paper can be changed by using a twist ball or electrophoresis (electrophoresis) using a capsule.

In a state in which the flexible display portion 1451 is not deformed (for example, a state having an infinite radius of curvature, hereinafter referred to as a first state), the display area of the flexible display portion 1451 is flat. In the first state, the display area may be a curved surface in a state deformed by an external force (for example, a state having a finite radius of curvature, hereinafter referred to as a second state). As shown in the figure, the information displayed in the second state may be time information output on the curved surface. Such visual information is realized by independently controlling the emission of a sub-pixel arranged in a matrix form. The unit pixel means a minimum unit for implementing one color.

The flexible display portion 1451 may be placed in a bent state (for example, a state in which the flexible display portion 1451 is bent up and down or left and right) rather than a flat state in the first state. In this case, if an external force is applied to the flexible display portion 1451, the flexible display portion 1451 can be deformed into a flat state (or a less bent state) or a more bent state.

Meanwhile, the flexible display unit 1451 may be combined with a touch sensor to implement a flexible touch screen. When a touch is made to the flexible touch screen, the control unit 1380 (see FIG. 13A) can perform control corresponding to the touch input. The flexible touch screen may be configured to sense the touch input in the first state as well as the second state.

Meanwhile, the display device 1400 according to the present modification may be provided with a deformation sensing means capable of sensing deformation of the flexible display portion 1451. The deformation detecting means may be included in the sensing unit 1340 (see FIG. 13A).

The deformation sensing means may be provided in the flexible display portion 1451 or the case 1401 to sense information related to the deformation of the flexible display portion 1451. Here, the information related to the deformation may be the direction in which the flexible display portion 1451 is deformed, the degree of deformation, the deformation position, the deformation time, and the acceleration at which the deformed flexible display portion 1451 is restored, In addition, it may be various information that can be detected due to warping of the flexible display portion 1451.

The control unit 1380 may change the information displayed on the flexible display unit 1451 or change the information displayed on the flexible display unit 1451 based on the information related to the deformation of the flexible display unit 1451, It is possible to generate a control signal for controlling the function of the controller.

Meanwhile, the display device 1400 according to the present modification may include a case 1401 that accommodates the flexible display portion 1451. The case 1401 may be configured to be deformable together with the flexible display portion 1451 by an external force in consideration of the characteristics of the flexible display portion 1451. [

In addition, the battery (not shown) included in the display device 1400 may be configured to be deformable together with the flexible display portion 1451 by an external force in consideration of the characteristics of the flexible display portion 1451. In order to implement the battery, a stack and folding method in which battery cells are stacked on top of one another may be applied.

The state change of the flexible display portion 1451 is not limited to an external force. For example, when the flexible display portion 1451 has the first state, it may be transformed into the second state by a command of the user or the application.

On the other hand, the display device can be extended to a wearable device that can be worn on the body beyond the dimension that the user holds mainly in the hand. These wearable devices include smart watch, smart glass, and head mounted display (HMD). Hereinafter, examples of a display device extended to a wearable device will be described.

The wearable device may be made capable of interchanging (or interlocking) data with another display device 1300. The short-range communication module 1314 can detect (or recognize) a wearable device capable of communicating around the display device 1300. If the detected wearable device is a device authenticated to communicate with the display device 1300, the control unit 1380 transmits at least a part of the data processed by the display device 1300 to the wearable device 1300 via the short- Lt; / RTI > Thus, the user can use the data processed in the display device 1300 through the wearable device. For example, it is possible to perform a telephone call via the wearable device when a telephone call is received on the display device 1300, or to confirm the received message via the wearable device when a message is received on the display device 1300 .

When the display unit 1551 is implemented as a touch screen, the display unit 1551 may function as a user input unit 1523, so that the main body 1501 may not have a separate key.

The band 1502 is worn on the wrist so as to surround the wrist and may be formed of a flexible material for easy wearing. As an example, the band 1502 may be formed of leather, rubber, silicone, synthetic resin, or the like. The band 1502 can be detachably attached to the main body 1501, and can be configured to be replaceable by various types of bands according to the user's preference.

The display unit 1651 can project an image to the user's eyes using a prism. Further, the prism may be formed to be transmissive so that the user can view the projected image and the general view of the front (the range that the user views through the eyes) together.

As described above, the image output through the display unit 1651 may be overlapped with the general view. The display device 1600 can provide augmented reality (AR) in which a virtual image is superimposed on a real image or a background and displayed as a single image, using the characteristics of the display.

The camera 1621 is disposed adjacent to at least one of the left eye and the right eye, and is configured to photograph a forward image. Since the camera 1621 is located adjacent to the eye, the camera 1621 can acquire a scene viewed by the user as an image.

Although the camera 1621 is provided in the control module 1680 in this figure, it is not limited thereto. The camera 1621 may be installed in the frame unit or may be provided in a plurality of ways to acquire a stereoscopic image.

The glass-type display device 1600 may have user inputs 1623a and 1623b operated to receive control commands. The user input units 1623a and 1623b can be employed in any manner as long as the user touches, pushes, or the like in a tactile manner.

Next, a communication system that can be implemented through the display device 1300 according to the present invention will be described.

First, the communication system may use different wireless interfaces and / or physical layers. For example, wireless interfaces that can be used by a communication system include Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) ), Universal mobile telecommunication systems (UMTS) (in particular Long Term Evolution (LTE), Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A)), Global System for Mobile Communications May be included.

Hereinafter, for the sake of convenience of description, the description will be limited to CDMA. However, it is apparent that the present invention can be applied to all communication systems including an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) wireless communication system as well as a CDMA wireless communication system.

The CDMA wireless communication system includes at least one terminal 1300, at least one base station (BS) (also referred to as a Node B or Evolved Node B), at least one base station controller (BSCs) , And a Mobile Switching Center (MSC).

The intersection of sector and frequency assignment may be referred to as a CDMA channel. The BS may be referred to as a base station transceiver subsystem (BTSs). In this case, a combination of one BSC and at least one BS may be referred to as a " base station ". The base station may also indicate a "cell site ". Alternatively, each of the plurality of sectors for a particular BS may be referred to as a plurality of cell sites.

A broadcast transmission unit (BT) transmits a broadcast signal to terminals 100 operating in the system. The broadcast receiving module 1311 shown in FIG. 13A is provided in the terminal 1300 to receive a broadcast signal transmitted by the BT.

In addition, a CDMA wireless communication system may be associated with a Global Positioning System (GPS) for identifying the location of the display device 1300. The satellite aids in locating the display device 1300. Useful location information may be obtained by two or more satellites. Here, the position of the display device 1300 can be tracked using all the techniques capable of tracking the location as well as the GPS tracking technology. Also, at least one of the GPS satellites may optionally or additionally be responsible for satellite DMB transmission.

The location information module 1315 included in the display device is for detecting, computing, or identifying the location of the display device. Typical examples of the location information module 1315 include a Global Position System (GPS) module and a WiFi (Wireless Fidelity) module. Optionally, the location information module 1315 may perform any of the other functions of the wireless communication unit 1310 to obtain replacement or additionally data regarding the location of the display device.

The GPS module 1315 calculates distance information and accurate time information from three or more satellites and then applies trigonometry to the calculated information to accurately calculate three-dimensional current position information according to latitude, longitude, and altitude can do. At present, a method of calculating position and time information using three satellites and correcting an error of the calculated position and time information using another satellite is widely used. In addition, the GPS module 1315 can calculate speed information by continuously calculating the current position in real time. However, it is difficult to accurately measure the position of a display device using a GPS module in a shadow area of a satellite signal, such as in a room. Accordingly, a WPS (WiFi Positioning System) can be utilized to compensate the positioning of the GPS system.

The WiFi Positioning System (WPS) is a system in which the display device 1300 uses a WiFi module included in the display device 1300 and a wireless AP (wireless access point) transmitting or receiving a wireless signal with the WiFi module, Is a technology for tracking a location of a wireless local area network (WLAN) using WiFi.

The WiFi location tracking system may include a Wi-Fi location server, a display device 1300, a wireless AP connected to the display device 1300, and a database in which certain wireless AP information is stored.

The display device 1300 connected to the wireless AP can transmit the location information request message to the Wi-Fi location server.

The WiFi location server extracts information of the wireless AP connected to the display device 1300 based on the location information request message (or signal) of the display device 1300. The information of the wireless AP connected to the display device 1300 may be transmitted to the Wi-Fi location server through the display device 1300 or may be transmitted from the wireless AP to the Wi-Fi location server.

The information of the wireless AP to be extracted based on the location information request message of the display device 1300 includes a MAC address, an SSID (Service Set IDentification), a Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), a Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) Reference Signal Received Quality), channel information, Privacy, Network Type, Signal Strength, and Noise Strength.

As described above, the Wi-Fi location server can receive the information of the wireless AP connected to the display device 1300 and extract the wireless AP information corresponding to the wireless AP to which the display device is connected from the pre-established database. In this case, the information of any wireless APs stored in the database includes at least one of MAC address, SSID, channel information, privacy, network type, radius coordinates of the wireless AP, building name, Available), the address of the AP owner, telephone number, and the like. At this time, in order to remove the wireless AP provided using the mobile AP or the illegal MAC address in the positioning process, the Wi-Fi location server may extract only a predetermined number of wireless AP information in order of RSSI.

The Wi-Fi location server may then extract (or analyze) the location information of the display device 1300 using at least one wireless AP information extracted from the database. And compares the received information with the received wireless AP information to extract (or analyze) the location information of the display device 1300.

As a method for extracting (or analyzing) the position information of the display device 1300, a Cell-ID method, a fingerprint method, a triangulation method, and a landmark method can be utilized.

The Cell-ID method is a method of determining the location of the wireless AP having the strongest signal strength among the surrounding wireless AP information collected by the display device as the position of the display device. Although the implementation is simple, it does not cost extra and it can acquire location information quickly, but there is a disadvantage that positioning accuracy is lowered when the installation density of the wireless AP is low.

The fingerprint method collects signal strength information by selecting a reference position in a service area, and estimates the position based on the signal strength information transmitted from the display device based on the collected information. In order to use the fingerprint method, it is necessary to previously convert the propagation characteristics into a database.

The triangulation method is a method of calculating the position of the display device based on the coordinates of at least three wireless APs and the distance between the display devices. In order to measure the distance between the display device and the wireless AP, the signal intensity is converted into distance information, the time of arrival (ToA), the time difference of arrival (TDoA) , An angle at which a signal is transmitted (Angle of Arrival, AoA), or the like.

The landmark method is a method of measuring the position of a display device using a landmark transmitter that knows a position.

In addition to the listed methods, various algorithms can be utilized as a method for extracting (or analyzing) the location information of the display device.

The location information of the extracted display device 1300 is transmitted to the display device 1300 via the Wi-Fi location server, so that the display device 1300 can acquire the location information.

The display device 1300 may be connected to at least one wireless AP to obtain location information. At this time, the number of wireless APs required to acquire the location information of the display device 1300 may be variously changed according to the wireless communication environment in which the display device 1300 is located.

The NFC module may operate in either a card mode, a reader mode, or a P2P mode. In order for the NFC module to operate in the card mode, the display device 1300 may further include a security module for storing card information. Here, the security module may be a physical medium such as a UICC (e.g., a SIM (Subscriber Identification Module) or a USIM (Universal SIM)), a Secure micro SD and a sticker, or a logical medium For example, embeded SE (Secure Element)). Data exchange based on SWP (Single Wire Protocol) can be made between NFC module and security module.

When the NFC module is operated in the card mode, the display device can transmit the stored card information to the outside such as a conventional IC card. Specifically, when a display device that stores card information of a payment card such as a credit card or a bus card is brought close to the fare payment machine, the mobile proximity payment can be processed, and a display device that stores card information of the access card can be accessed If you are close to the time, the approval process for access may begin. Cards such as credit cards, transportation cards, and access cards are mounted on the security module in the form of an applet, and the security module can store card information on the mounted card. Here, the card information of the payment card may be at least one of a card number, balance, and usage details, and the card information of the access card may include at least one of a name, a number (e.g., It can be one.
