A remote control apparatus is disclosed. The remote control apparatus comprises: a microphone; a communication unit; a storage unit for storing pattern information of a non-audible sound for identification of the locality of an external electronic device; and a processor for broadcasting, through the communication unit, information acquired on the basis of an ambient sound received through the microphone, and when a non-audible sound based on broadcasted information output from an electronic device is received through the microphone, comparing a pattern of the received non-audible sound with pattern information stored in the storage unit, and transmitting a pairing request signal to the electronic device on the basis of a comparison result.

Remote control apparatus and electronic device, and system including same

An input device which includes a sensor, a microphone, a communicator, and a processor configured to, based on an operation of a user being identified based on a value sensed through the sensor, transmit utterance intention sensing information to an electronic device, based on a command to initiate a speech recognition and feedback information being received from the electronic device according to the utterance intention sensing information transmitted to the electronic device, activate the microphone and provide a feedback according to the feedback information, and transmit a voice signal received via the microphone to the electronic device.

Input device, electronic device, system comprising the same and control method thereof

A remote controller is provided. The remote controller includes an input interface; a communicator; a storage; and a processor configured to: transmit, to the display apparatus via the communicator, a signal indicating control instructions based on a user input received through the input interface, receive, from the display apparatus via the communicator, information related to a first control code for controlling a first source device of the at least one source device based on the control instructions, identify the first control code from a first control code set stored in the storage based on the information related to the first control code, and control the communicator to transmit a first control signal indicating the first control code to the first source device.

Remote controller, display apparatus, system and method for controlling thereof

A remote controller includes a communicator and a processor configured to control the communicator to transmit an identification information request signal to a plurality of electronic apparatuses paired with the remote controller. Based on a signal that includes identification information being received from two or more of the plurality of electronic apparatuses in response to the identification information request signal, the processor controls the communicator to identify a direction of the remote controller based on a direction from which each of the signals is received. The processor causes communication to be performed via an exclusive communication channel between the remote controller and one of the plurality of electronic apparatuses based on the identified direction.

Remote controller and control method thereof

A remote control apparatus is provided. The remote control apparatus according to an embodiment includes a microphone, a communicator comprising communication circuitry configured to transmit a first advertising packet, and to receive a second advertising packet including respective addresses of a plurality of electronic apparatuses from the plurality of electronic apparatuses in response to transmission of the first advertising packet, and a processor configured to, based on the second advertising packet being received, determine a priority based on reception characteristic of the second advertising packet, and transmit a third advertising packet including a sound output request and an address of an electronic apparatus determined based on the priority from among the received addresses of the plurality of electronic apparatuses through the communicator, and based on sound output from an electronic apparatus being received through the microphone in response to transmission of the third advertising packet, to control the communicator to perform a pairing with the electronic apparatus which outputs the sound.

Remote control, electronic apparatus and pairing method thereof

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

A display apparatus is provided, which includes a remote control signal receiver configured to receive a remote control signal transmitted from at least one among a first remote controller configured to control the display apparatus and at least one second remote controller configured to control at least one neighboring device, a display configured to display a list of function menus corresponding to the received remote control signal, according to information related to the received remote control signal, and a controller configured to control, on a condition that a function menu is selected from the list, an operation that corresponds to the selected function menu.

Display apparatus and control method thereof

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 video cassette recorder (VCR) record compensation apparatus that provides an optimal record environment based on the record time of the tape. This apparatus includes a record amplifier which controls the amplitude of a video signal to be recorded via a head based on the record time of the tape, to prevent the image quality from deteriorating due to magnetization characteristics of the tape. Also included is a record equalizer, which compensates the frequency characteristics of the video signal to be recorded based on the full record time of the tape.
