Abstract

Provided is a method of using a rotational movement amount of a mobile device including obtaining images at two different points on a path along which the mobile device moves, searching for matching points with respect to the obtained images and obtaining an image coordinate value of each of the matching points, sensing linear movement of the mobile device and obtaining a linear movement amount using a result of sensing, and obtaining the rotational movement amount using the image coordinate values and the linear movement amount.
