METHOD OF ENCODING HAPTIC INFORMATION ON IMAGE, METHOD OF DECODING HAPTIC INFORMATION FROM IMAGE, AND APPARATUS OF PROCESSING HAPTIC INFORMATION FOR THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technology of encoding haptic information on images or decoding haptic information from images.

SOLUTION: The method of encoding haptic information on images includes: generating haptic information; generating encoding target data by using the haptic information and header information associated with the haptic information; and generating an encoded image by encoding the encoding target data by using the least significant bit (LSB) of byte data of each of original image pixels. As a result, encoding/decoding the haptic information can be facilitated while maintaining an original image format.
