Display apparatus, user terminal, control method, and computer-readable medium

A display apparatus includes: a display; a communication device configured to communicate with a user terminals; and a processor configured to control the display to display a UI, which includes items corresponding to content to be shared by users, in response to inputs of the users received through the user terminals, and control the display to display, on the UI, reproduction control states of the content to be distinguishable according to the respective users.

A remote control apparatus is disclosed. The remote control apparatus includes: a motion detecting sensor for detecting a motion on the remote control apparatus; a touch sensor for detecting a touch input on the remote control apparatus; and a controller for controlling an external apparatus by selectively using a sensing value of the touch sensor and a sensing value of the motion detecting sensor according to whether the touch input corresponds to a touch input for controlling the external apparatus.

Remote control apparatus and control method therefor

An erasing device to erase an image displayed on a display apparatus, the erasing device including: a housing; a generator to generate an electromagnetic field so that the electromagnetic field is emitted from each of a plurality of portions of a tip of the housing; and a controller to control the generator to generate the electromagnetic field when the tip touches a surface of the display apparatus so that the display apparatus detecting the electromagnetic field erases an image within a preset image deletion region with a predetermined area based on a position on the surface touched by the tip, wherein the generator adjusts output of the electromagnetic field from each portion of the tip based on whether each portion of the tip touches the surface so that the display apparatus adjusts the area of the image deletion region based on the portion of the tip touched by the surface.

Image erasing device for electronic chalkboard system, control method thereof, display apparatus, control method thereof, and electronic chalkboard system

An electronic apparatus including a proximity sensor is provided. The apparatus includes a touch sensor configured to sense a touch trace of the object in response to a user gesture of touching the electronic apparatus using an object and moving the touched point being input, a proximity sensor configured to sense a motion of the object before and after the touch, and a controller configured to change the touch trace based on a direction of motion of the object before and after the touch, and recognize the user gesture according to the changed touch trace. Accordingly, the touch trace may be changed and thus, an accurate control operation may be performed.

Electronic apparatus and method of recognizing a user gesture

A display apparatus and a method of controlling the display apparatus include displaying a plurality of display items on a display screen; acquiring a coordinate value of a position on the display screen pointed to by an input device; positioning a virtual pointer on the display screen in an area of first one of the plurality of display items that is proximate to the acquired coordinate value and highlighting the first display item on the display screen; and in response to the input device pointing to a new position, moving the virtual pointer according to a new coordinate value of the new position pointed to by the input device and highlighting a second one of the plurality of display items that is proximate to the new coordinate value on the display screen.

Display apparatus and method of controlling the same

A display apparatus, an input apparatus, and a method for compensating coordinates using the same. A method for compensating coordinates using a display apparatus includes receiving movement information from an input apparatus, calculating a coordinate value based on the movement information, and displaying a cursor on the calculated coordinate value. When a button selection command is received from the input apparatus, replacing a coordinate value calculated after receiving the button selection command with a coordinate value of a stable position calculated before receiving the button selection command, and displaying the cursor on the replaced coordinate value, and manipulating an item on which the cursor is located according to the button selection command. Accordingly, the user may locate a cursor on the location that the user wants and execute a display item.

Display apparatus, input apparatus, and method for compensating coordinates using the same

A graphical user interface, a display apparatus and a control method thereof are provided. The display apparatus includes: a display unit which displays thereon an image comprising a plurality of user interface (UI) objects and a pointer; a pointer adjuster which generates the pointer and moves the pointer based on a user command for moving the pointer received from an input device; and a controller which controls the pointer adjuster to adjust a moving speed of the pointer according to a density of the UI objects displayed on the display unit.

Graphical user interface, display apparatus and control method thereof

An item selecting apparatus includes a movement detecting unit detecting a movement of a user, a screen displaying image information, a display image storage unit storing data to generate an image to be displayed on the screen, a display image generating unit generating an image to be displayed on the screen, and a control unit controlling so that a plurality of items is displayed on the screen in one of one-, two- and three-dimensional arrangements, in which the control unit receives a signal from the movement detecting unit to measure a movement of the object in at least one of x-, y- and z-axis directions and issues a command to select at least one from among the plurality of items or provides visual feedback thereto, in response to the measured movement of the user and in accordance with the arrangement of the plurality of items on the screen.

Apparatus and method for selecting item using movement of object

A remote controller includes a communicator configured to perform communication with a display apparatus which provides a user interface screen, a sensor configured to sense a movement of the remote controller, and a controller configured to control so that, when a preset event occurs, motion information of the remote controller as sensed at the sensor is mapped with a reference point of a pointer provided on the user interface screen.

Remote controller and display apparatus, control method thereof

A display apparatus and a display method capable of controlling cursor movement are disclosed. The display apparatus includes an input unit which receives an input cursor movement command, a display unit which displays at least one object and a cursor on a screen and moves the cursor according to the cursor movement command, and a control unit which controls the display unit to automatically move the cursor to a target point that corresponds to a direction of movement of the cursor within the object in response to the cursor moving into a range that is set on the basis of the object. Accordingly, a user can select and execute a specified object through an easy and convenient operation.

Display apparatus and method for controlling cursor movement

A control method includes: receiving a user's input through a touch area of the input device; and recognizing the user's touch input to the touch area through a recognition area of the input device corresponding to the touch area and changing and assigning a range of the recognition area corresponding to the touch area according to a predetermined standard.
