Method of encoding and decoding haptic information, and apparatus for processing haptic information이미지의 햅틱 데이터 인코딩 방법, 인코딩된 이미지의 햅틱 데이터 디코딩 방법 및 이들 방법을 이용한 시스템
Disclosed is a technology of encoding haptic information on images or decoding haptic information from images. The method of encoding the haptic information on the images according to the present invention 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 a least significant bit (LSB) of byte data of each of the original image pixels. As a result, the present invention can simply encode/decode the haptic information while maintaining an original image format.
