A technique for controlling an electronic device thereof is provided. The technique includes, in response to an attachment device being selected by an external device from a list of attachment devices, receiving and storing mapping information in which data configured in a first communication format and data configured in a second communication format in relation to one function of the electronic device to which the attachment device is attached are mapped. In addition, in response to the data configured in the first communication format being received from an external device which is communicably connected with the attachment device, the data configured in the second communication format corresponding to the data configured in the first communication format based on the mapping information is acquired, and the data configured in the second communication format to the electronic device to control the one function of the electronic device to be performed is transmitted.

Attachment device and method for controlling electronic device thereof

A display apparatus and a method of displaying an image by the display apparatus are provided. The display apparatus and the method include displaying a first content image on the display apparatus, detecting a first touch from a bezel of the display apparatus, displaying a folding area on a first edge of the first content image in response to a location of the first touch, and moving the first content image to the folding area from an adjacent folding area of the first content image, which contacts the folding area, in response to holding time of the first touch.

Display apparatus and method of displaying image by display apparatus

Provided is a display device for efficiently providing content to a user using a transparent display. The display device includes: a transparent display; a direction determiner configured to determine a user-facing surface among a first surface and a second surface of the transparent display, the user-facing surface referring to a surface which faces a user; and a controller configured to render first content on the transparent display in a direction corresponding to the first surface if the first surface faces the user, and configured to render second content on the transparent display in a direction corresponding to the second surface if the second surface faces the user.

Display device having a transparent display and a method for controlling the display device to render content on a surface of the transparent display that a user faces

A content sharing method is provided. The content sharing method is performed by a display device connected to at least one user terminal. The content sharing method includes displaying content on the display device, receiving information included in a transparent layer of a first user terminal among the at least one user terminal from the first user terminal, and overlapping the transparent layer, including the information received from the first user terminal, on the displayed content.

Method and device for sharing content

An electronic apparatus and a method for controlling the sound of the electronic apparatus are provided. The electronic apparatus includes: a display configured to display content; a speaker configured to output sound; a communicator configured to receive information from an external remote control device; and a controller configured to control the display, the speaker, and the communicator, wherein the controller is configured to, in response to the communicator receiving first control information from the remote control device while the display displays first content and the speaker outputs a first sound corresponding to the first content, control the display to display second content and control the speaker to continuously output the first sound.

Electronic apparatus and method for controlling sound of electronic apparatus

Provided is a method of transmitting a message. The method includes: obtaining identification information used to identify a user based on bio information of the user that is obtained by a device; determining whether control over an external device is approved based on the identification information; obtaining control information used to control an operation of the external device based on the determination; and transmitting a message including the control information to the external device.

Device and method for transmitting message

Provided are a portable device, a wearable device, and a system including the same for setting a reception of a notification message in the wearable device. The portable device includes: a wireless communicator configured to receive, from a wearable device via wireless communication, information regarding a notification setting; and a controller configured to identify an event and to determine, based on the received information, whether to transmit a notification to the wearable device in response to the identified event.

Wearable device and method of setting reception of notification message therein

A system and method of sharing an object based on a knocking input are provided. The method includes detecting a knocking input on sharing device, determining at least one object displayed on a screen of the sharing device based on the knocking input, and determining at least one counterpart device to share at least one object with, and sharing the at least one object with the at least one counterpart device, wherein the at least one object displayed on the screen of the sharing device is also displayed on a screen of the at least one counterpart device after being synchronized.
