An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a display, an electronic pen, a slot in which the electronic pen can be inserted in or detached from, a pen sensing module configured to sense an insertion/detachment of the electronic pen, a pen input module configured to receive an input using the electronic pen, and a processor configured to activate the pen input module while the display maintains an OFF-state when the detachment of the electronic pen is sensed within the OFF-state of the display.

Apparatus and method for providing memo function

An electronic device includes a display configured to display at least one content, a pressure sensor configured to sense a touch input having a pressure value of a specified value or more, a memory, and a processor operatively connected to the display, the pressure sensor, and the memory. When the touch input occurs in a first screen of the display, the processor is configured to determine an input location of the touch input, to verify content displayed at a display location of the first screen corresponding to the input location, to create a widget including information associated with the content, and to output the created widget to a second screen of the display.

Touch processing method and electronic device supporting same

A method and system is provided that controls an external output function of a mobile device according to control interactions received via the microphone. The method includes, activating a microphone according to preset optional information when the mobile device enters an external output mode, performing an external output operation in the external output mode, detecting an interaction based on sound information in the external output mode, and controlling the external output according to the interaction.

Method and system for controlling external output of a mobile device

A method for activating user functions by types of input signals and a portable terminal adapted to the method are disclosed. The input means of the portable terminal generate various types of input signals. The portable terminal activates and controls particular user functions according to corresponding input signals. In a multi-tasking situation where a plurality of user functions are simultaneously used, the portable terminal can activate and control the user functions according to the particular types of input signals.

Method for activating user functions by types of input signals and portable terminal adapted to the method

A method and system for generating data in a mobile device is provided. The method includes, outputting an image, stored in the mobile device, to an external screen, capturing the external screen on which the image is being displayed and creating a captured image, comparing the output image with the captured image and extracting an added image from the captured image, and creating data from the extracted image. When the mobile device user writes or draws on an external screen on which the mobile device outputs an image, the mobile device can capture the external screen, create data from the user's input content and store them in the storage unit.

Method and system for generating data using a mobile device with a projection function

A method and a system are disclosed for function control using a display unit including a touch area and a non-touch area. The device includes an output area for displaying various types of screen data corresponding to execution applications, a control area for providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for controlling a function of the device, and a control unit for detecting execution of a particular application, configuring a screen comprising the output area and the control area in response to the executed application, and controlling a function of the device according to a user interaction occurring through the GUI in the control area.

System and method for controlling function of a device

An interaction method and apparatus for an electronic device is proposed for providing the user with interactive audio/video/haptic effects. An interaction method for an electronic device according to the present invention includes outputting an event object in response to an input action to an event element; detecting a user interaction to the event object; and outputting an effect object in response to the user interaction.

User interaction method and apparatus for electronic device

A method of sharing information between mobile terminals using a local wireless communication network is disclosed. The method includes setting information stored in a first mobile terminal with one of at least two security levels; if registration is requested by a second mobile terminal, registering an identifier of the second mobile terminal and an access rights level of the second mobile terminal to the information set with a security level; if a local wireless communication link is formed with the second mobile terminal, displaying a list of information set with a set security level corresponding to the access rights level of the second mobile terminal; and sharing the displayed information according to a request from the second mobile terminal. According to the present invention, information stored in a mobile terminal may safely be shared with another mobile terminal in a local wireless communication area.
