[0039] The second view video request unit (330) is installed on the user terminal (20) and can display a view video list provided by the content server (10) in a selectable manner, and can transmit a request signal for a view video selected by the user from the view video list to the first view video request unit (320) through the communication module (400). At this time, the user terminal (20) and the communication module (400) can be connected via wireless communication such as Wi-Fi Direct or Bluetooth.
[0040] More specifically, the second view video request unit (330) provides an interface for selecting and requesting a view video through the screen of the user terminal (20), and can display a view video list that can be selected through the interface. The view video list consists of data and information provided by the content server (10), and some list information may be periodically modified according to updates from the content server (10). At the upper level of the view video list, the user can select a desired view video using a category selection method, and specifically, it may include at least one category among a natural view video category including natural landscapes such as mountains, seas, streams, and grasslands, an urban view video category including urban landscapes, a real-time view video category including CCTV footage, and an information video category including TV content, news, and weather information, but such categories may also be periodically changed according to updates from the content server (10). When the user completes the selection of a desired category, view video files existing within the selected category can be displayed in a thumbnail form for selection. When the user selects a desired view video file among these, a request signal for the selected view video file is generated, and the generated request signal can be transmitted to the first view video request unit (320) through the communication module (400). The request signal transmitted in this way can be transmitted back to the content server (10) as a request signal of the first view video request unit (320).
[0041] Meanwhile, the user terminal (20) can include wireless communication devices that the user can carry, such as smartphones, smartpads, tablet PCs, PCS (Personal Communication System), GSM (Global System for Mobile communications), PDC (Personal Digital Cellular), PHS (Personal Handyphone System), PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), IMT (International Mobile Telecommunication)-2000, CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access)-2000, W-CDMA (W-Code Division Multiple Access), and Wibro (Wireless Broadband Internet) terminals, as well as portable computing devices such as stationary PCs and laptops.
[0042] The above view video output unit (340) can receive a video signal received from the content server (10) through the communication module (400) and output it to the transparent display module (200). At this time, the video signal is video streaming data and may be a response signal to a view video request through the control module (300) or a response signal to a request through the user terminal (20).
[0043] The first sound request unit (350) can display a selectable sound list provided by the content server (10) and request a request signal for a sound selected by the user from the sound list to the content server (10) through the communication module (400).
[0044] More specifically, the first sound request unit (350) provides an interface for selecting and requesting sound through an external screen of the control module (300), and can display a sound list selectably through the interface. The sound list consists of data and information provided by the content server (10), and some list information may be periodically modified according to updates from the content server (10). At the upper level of the sound list, the user can select the desired sound using a category selection method. Specifically, it may include categories such as white noise (e.g., bird sounds, rain sounds, flowing water sounds, waterfall sounds), popular music, classical music, etc., but these categories may also be periodically changed according to updates from the content server (10). Once the user has completed selecting the desired category, sound files (or audio files) existing within the selected category may be displayed in a thumbnail form for selection. When the user selects the desired sound file (or audio file) among these, a request for streaming of the selected sound file (or audio file) can be made.
[0045] The second sound request unit (360) is installed in the user terminal (20) and can display a selectable sound list provided by the content server (10), and can transmit a request signal for a sound selected by the user from the sound list to the first sound request unit (350) through the communication module (400).
[0046] More specifically, the second sound request unit (360) provides an interface for selecting and requesting sound through an external screen of the control module (300), and can display a sound list selectably through the interface. The sound list consists of data and information provided by the content server (10), and some list information may be periodically modified according to updates from the content server (10). At the upper level of the sound list, the user can select the desired sound using a category selection method. Specifically, it may include categories such as white noise (e.g., bird sounds, rain sounds, flowing water sounds, waterfall sounds), popular music, classical music, etc., but these categories may also be periodically changed according to updates from the content server (10). Once the user has completed selecting a desired category, sound files (or audio files) existing within the selected category may be displayed as thumbnails for selection. When the user selects a desired sound file (or audio file) among these, a request for streaming of the selected sound file (or audio file) can be made. The request signal generated in this way is transmitted to the first sound request unit (350) through the communication module (400), and the transmitted request signal is sent back to the content server (10) as a request signal of the first sound request unit (350) so that the desired sound (or sound source) can be requested.
[0047] The above-mentioned sound output unit (370) can receive a sound signal (sound source signal) from the content server (10) through the communication module (400) and output it to the sound module (600). At this time, the sound signal is sound (sound source) streaming data and may be a response signal to a sound request through the control module (300) or a response signal to a request through the user terminal (20).
[0048] The above-described view video viewpoint control unit (380) can control the direction or angle of the view video played through the transparent display module (200) to change the viewpoint of the view video according to the user's eye level, gaze height, and face angle calculated through the gaze tracking unit (730) described later, and the distance value measured through the distance detection sensor unit (740). At this time, the provided view video may be produced in the format of a 360-degree video or a 360 VR video, and a more detailed explanation thereof will be provided later.
[0049] The control module (300) according to the present embodiment may be manufactured in the form of a module in which various components are assembled into one unit and installed on the outer wall of a window, or may be manufactured in the form of a remote control separated from the window, or may be implemented in the form of a remote control.
[0050] The view video according to the present embodiment can be provided not only via a streaming service method, but also via a method of downloading and saving a desired video and then playing the saved view video file. Furthermore, if the user has not made a specific selection regarding the view video or is unable to make a selection, a service can be provided to recommend content that has been frequently played by other users or to automatically play the content through a view video recommendation service.
[0051] The communication module (400) can receive video signals and audio signals (audio source signals) respectively from the content server (10) via a communication network and provide them to the control module (300). This communication module (400) can be connected to the content server (10) via an internet wired / wireless communication network to receive requests for view video and audio (audio source) and data corresponding to the requests, and transmit them to the control module (300). It can also be connected to a user terminal (20) via wireless communication such as Wi-Fi Direct or Bluetooth to receive request signals for view video, audio (audio source), etc., from the user terminal (20).
[0052] The above power module (500) may include at least one of an adapter for receiving external AC power and converting it into DC power for use as internal power, and a secondary battery (including a charging / discharging device and a protection circuit) for supplying charged DC power for use as internal power.
[0053] The above sound module (600) can receive a sound signal (sound or sound source streaming data) from the control module (300) and output it to the outside through a speaker.
[0054] The above gaze detection module (700) can recognize a user located in front of the window assembly (100) and detect the gaze of the recognized user.
[0055] To this end, the gaze detection module (700) may include at least one of a human body detection sensor unit (710), an image capturing unit (720), a gaze tracking unit (730), and a distance detection sensor unit (740), as shown in FIG. 7.
[0056] The human body detection sensor unit (710) can detect a user within a certain area in front of the window assembly (100). Here, the certain area in front can be defined as a three-dimensional area (approximately a rectangular prism) of 1.5m * 2.5m * 2m (width * length * height) located 1m away from the front of the window assembly (100) based on the interior, but this is a three-dimensional representation of the area to aid in understanding the invention, and in reality, it can be defined as a three-dimensional elliptical shape rather than this structure. When a user is detected within the certain area by the human body detection sensor unit (710), the image capturing unit (720), the eye tracking unit (730), and the distance detection sensor unit (740) are activated and operated.
[0057] The above-mentioned video capturing unit (720) is activated upon user recognition via the human body detection sensor unit (710) to continuously capture the user and can transmit the captured user video to the eye tracking unit (730) in real time. Here, continuous capturing means that the user is captured while being detected by the human body detection sensor unit (710), and is not captured if the user is not detected within the area.
[0058] The above-mentioned eye tracking unit (730) can detect a face area from image information captured through the image capturing unit (720), calculate the user's eye level through the detected face area, and calculate and track the user's eye level and face angle from the detected face area.
[0059] The gaze tracking unit (730) according to the present embodiment can calculate the user's gaze height and face angle by performing an 8-step process. Specifically, the first step of detecting the user's face area from captured image information; the second step of detecting the eye and pupil areas in the face area and calculating the pupil movement distance; the third step of calculating the difference in distance from the outer end of each eye to the edge of the face in the face area; and the fourth step of calculating the vertical movement distance of the face by calculating the ratio from the top of the head to the eye and the ratio from the lips to the chin in the face area; The method may include a fifth step of calculating the gaze direction and angle by combining the distance of the pupil movement, the difference in distance from the outer end of each eye to the edge of the face in the face area, and the vertical movement distance of the face; a sixth step of calculating the distance between the reference and the user by using the distance between the reference and the marker marked on the floor and the distance between the user's shape and the marker on the floor in the image information of the user captured; a seventh step of calculating the user's eye level by using the distance between the reference and the user calculated in the sixth step, the height of the marker marked on the wall, and comparing the user's shape and the marker marked on the wall in the user's image information; and an eighth step of calculating the gaze height by using the user's gaze direction and angle and the user's eye level. Since the gaze tracking process of such a gaze tracking unit (730) is disclosed in 'Registered Patent Publication No. 10-2016308 (Registration Date: August 26, 2019)', a more detailed description thereof is omitted.
[0060] The above distance sensing sensor unit (740) is activated when a user is recognized through the human body detection sensor unit (710) and can measure the distance to the user.
[0061] The above gaze detection module (700) can match the user's eye level, gaze height, and face angle calculated through the gaze tracking unit (730) with the distance value measured through the distance detection sensor unit (740) and transmit it to the view image viewpoint control unit (380). That is, the gaze detection module (700) can generate gaze detection data including 'eye level, gaze height, face angle, and distance value' based on the gaze detection point and transmit it to the view image viewpoint control unit (380). At this time, the view image viewpoint control unit (380) can adjust the viewpoint of the view image using a look-up table consisting of 'viewpoint change values of the view image' according to the 'eye level, gaze height, face angle, and distance value'. In this way, the view video viewpoint control unit (380) changes the viewpoint of the view video in the form of a 360-degree video or 360 VR video according to how far the user is from the window assembly (100) and at what height and in which direction the user is looking, thereby providing a view video with a viewpoint that matches the user's position, gaze height, and looking direction, etc., so as to provide a 2D view video from a distance, as well as a 3D view video according to the face position (gaze height), distance, and gaze direction at close range, thereby increasing the realism or authenticity of the view video.
[0062] The above temperature sensor module (800) is installed on the outdoor side of the window frame (110) to measure the outdoor temperature, and outputs a first driving signal if the measured temperature value is greater than or equal to a preset upper limit reference temperature value or less than or equal to a preset lower limit reference temperature value, and outputs a second driving signal if the measured temperature value is within the range between the upper limit reference temperature value and the lower limit reference temperature value.
[0063] In this embodiment, since the transparent display module (200) acts as a glass window and is directly exposed to the outside, that is, the temperature sensor module (800) checks whether the external temperature is in a high temperature range or a low temperature range that may cause damage or malfunction to the transparent display module (200). If it is in a high temperature range or a low temperature range, a first driving signal is output so that the sun blind (910) is pulled out through the sun blind module (900), and if not, a second driving signal is output (or no signal is output) so that the sun blind (910) is pulled in (or maintained in a pulled-in state).
[0064] The above sun blind module (900) is installed on the upper part of the outdoor side of the window frame (110), and can open or close the transparent display module (200) by pulling out or pulling in the sun blind according to the first driving signal and the second driving signal.
[0065] For example, when the sun blind module (900) receives a first driving signal, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the sun blind (910) is pulled out to block the rear of the transparent display module (200), thereby preventing a rapid rise in temperature of the transparent display module (200) due to direct sunlight or preventing the transparent display module (200) from freezing due to a severe cold wave, thus protecting the transparent display module (200) from rapid temperature changes and allowing the lifespan of the transparent display module (200) to be maintained for a long period. Additionally, when the external temperature is maintained at a normal level, the sun blind module (900) receives a second driving signal, and accordingly, as shown in FIG. 10, the sun blind (910) is pulled in to open the transparent display module (200).
[0066] Meanwhile, a second polarity magnet (hereinafter referred to as the second magnet) (920) may be installed at the bottom of the sun blind (910). As described above, a first magnet (121) is installed at the bottom of the outside (outdoor side) of the window sash (120), so that the fully extended sun blind (910) can be firmly fixed to the bottom of the window sash (120) by the combination of the first magnet (121) and the second magnet (920).
[0067] The above description is merely one embodiment for implementing a window system that provides a high-definition view video service according to the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and the technical spirit of the present invention extends to the scope in which various modifications can be made by anyone with ordinary knowledge in the field to which the invention belongs, without departing from the gist of the invention as claimed in the following patent claims.
