Abstract
Provided herein is a terminal device including a communication interface configured to receive a moving picture; a fingerprint extractor configured to extract a fingerprint from a frame of the moving picture; a controller configured to detect a target object from the frame, and control the communication interface to transmit the fingerprint to a server, and receive object information corresponding to the transmitted fingerprint from the server; and an outputter configured to output the received object information when content corresponding to the object information is output.
Claims8
A terminal device comprising:
- a communication interface;
- a display;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- control the display to output a moving picture;
- extract fingerprints from frames of the moving picture while the moving picture is output;
- detect an object from a frame of the moving picture while the moving picture is output;
- control the communication interface to transmit, to a server, a request comprising a fingerprint extracted from a currently output frame, to query information corresponding to the fingerprint comprised in the request;
- in response to transmitting the request to the server, receive, from the server, the information corresponding to the fingerprint comprised in the transmitted request;
- and
- control the display to output the received information,
- wherein the processor is further configured to control the communication interface to regularly transmit the request to the server at a predetermined time interval while a target object is not detected,
- wherein the processor is further configured to control the communication interface to transmit the request to the server immediately when the target object is detected regardless of the predetermined time interval, and
- wherein the processor is further configured to stop transmitting the request to the server while the same target object is continuously detected.
An information providing method of a terminal device, the method comprising:
- outputting a moving picture;
- extracting fingerprints from frames of the moving picture while the moving picture is output;
- detecting an object from a frame of the moving picture while the moving picture is output;
- transmitting, to a server, a request comprising a fingerprint extracted from a currently output frame, to query information corresponding to the fingerprint comprised in the request;
- in response to transmitting the request to the server, receiving, from the server, the information corresponding to the fingerprint comprised in the transmitted request;
- and
- outputting the received information,
- wherein the request is regularly transmitted to the server at a predetermined time interval while a target object is not detected,
- wherein the request is transmitted to the server immediately when the target object is detected regardless of the predetermined time interval, and
- wherein the information providing method further comprises:
- stopping the request from being transmitted to the server while the same target object is continuously detected.
