An audio-visual system may include a housing comprising an open upper end and a storage space, an audio-visual device installed inside the housing and exposable through the open upper end, and a lifting device configured to expose or store the audio-visual device inside the housing through the open upper end. The audio-visual device may include a display, a speaker, and a processor configured to control the audio-visual system to operate in a first mode for outputting media art content while the display is stored in the housing according to a first event, operate in a second mode for outputting audio content through the speaker while part of the display is exposed through the open upper end according to a second event, and operate in a third mode for outputting a visual content while the entire display is exposed through the open upper end according to a third event.

Audio-visual system and method for controlling the same

An image sound device is provided. The image sound device includes a housing including an upper end portion that includes an opening and a storage space inside the housing; a display including a display area for displaying video contents; a lifter; a speaker; a motor controller configured to control the lifter wherein the display is positioned at at least three height positions; and a controller configured to control the display to display an image on the display area and output sound.

Image sound device having display portion that can appear/disappear

An audio apparatus adaptable to a user position is provided. The audio apparatus may include a plurality of sub-modules placed at separate locations from one another, each sub-module of the plurality of sub-modules including a loudspeaker configured to generate sound and a communicator configured to perform communication. The first sub-module among the plurality of sub-modules may include a processor that processes an audio signal to be output as sound through the loudspeaker of the first sub-module, determines a user's position with respect to each of the plurality of sub-modules, and changes a state of the sound being output from the loudspeaker of the first sub-module in accordance with the determined position of the user.

Audio apparatus adaptable to user position

An electronic device that is interlocked with a display device and a method for controlling the electronic device are provided. The method includes acquiring an image by photographing an area in which the display device is installed, identifying a display area in which the display device is disposed and a background area of the display device by analyzing the acquired image, acquiring information that relates to a background image of a position at which the display device is installed based on the identified background area, and transmitting the acquired background image information to the display device.

Electronic device and method for controlling the same

The present invention relates to an image sound device having a display portion that can appear/disappear, the device comprising: a housing, the upper end of which is open, and which has a space provided therein; a display portion installed inside the housing to be able to output images; an elevating unit installed inside the housing and below the display portion such that the display portion can be made to protrude through the upper end of the housing; and a motor control portion for controlling the elevating unit such that the display portion can be positioned at two or more heights.

A display apparatus, including a display configured to display an image, at least one sensor configured to generate sensing data relating to at least one from among a direction and an intensity of external light projected onto the display from an external light source disposed around the display, a memory configured to store background image data relating to a background image of a background area behind the display, and a processor configured to generate a content screen based on the background image data and the sensing data and control the display to display the content screen, wherein the content screen may include at least one graphic object and a shadow corresponding to the at least one graphic object disposed on the background image, and at least one of a position and a shade of the shadow is changed in response to a change in the sensing data.
