Intelligent barrier-free kiosk and method of controlling the same

1. A method of controlling an intelligent barrier-free kiosk, the method comprising:

recognizing a moving object, which is within a preset distance from the kiosk and is approaching the kiosk;

learning characteristic information of a recognized moving object based on a multi-frame video;

determining, based on a result of the learning, whether a user related to the moving object intends to use the kiosk; and

based on determining that the user intends to use the kiosk, changing a height of the kiosk,

wherein the characteristic information of the recognized moving object comprises information about a frontal direction of the recognized moving object and information about a non-frontal direction of the recognized moving object,

wherein the determining of whether the user intends to use the kiosk comprises determining whether the user intends to use the kiosk based on a frame number ratio of the recognized moving object, and

wherein the frame number ratio is a ratio between a number of frames corresponding to the information about the frontal direction of the recognized moving object in the multi-frame video and a number of frames corresponding to the information about the non-frontal direction of the recognized moving object in the multi-frame video.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the learning comprises learning the characteristic information based on information obtained by photographing the moving object by using at least one camera included in the kiosk.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the learning comprises learning the characteristic information based on information obtained by photographing the moving object by using at least one of cameras installed on a front and a side of the kiosk.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the moving object is the user, and

the recognized characteristic information of the moving object is a height of the user.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the moving object is the user, and

the recognized characteristic information of the moving object is information about eyes of the user.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the information about the eyes comprises at least one of information about an iris and focus information with respect to the kiosk.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the changing of the height comprises:

calculating, based on the result of the learning, a height optimized for the user; and

adjusting the height of the kiosk to be the calculated height.

8. A computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for executing the method of claim 1 .

9. An intelligent barrier-free kiosk comprising:

a camera; and

a processor,

wherein the camera generates a multi-frame video about a moving object,

wherein the camera is configured to recognize and photograph the moving object, which is within a preset distance from the kiosk and is approaching the kiosk,

wherein the processor is configured to learn characteristic information of the recognized moving object, determine, based on a result of the learning, whether a user related to the moving object intends to use the kiosk, and, based on determining that the user intends to use the kiosk, change a height of the kiosk,

wherein the characteristic information of the recognized moving object comprises information about a frontal direction of the recognized moving object and information about a non-frontal direction of the recognized moving object, and

wherein the determining of whether the user intends to use the kiosk comprises determining, based on a frame number ratio of the recognized moving object, whether the user intends to use the kiosk, and

wherein the frame number ratio is a ratio between a number of frames corresponding the information about the frontal direction of the recognized moving object in the multi-frame video and a number of frames corresponding to the information about the non-frontal direction of the recognized moving object in the multi-frame video.
