An apparatus performs a method for providing a touch interface. The method includes receiving a touch input from a touch detection unit, detecting touch characteristics according to the touch input, and generating events different from each other according to the detected touch characteristics.

Method and apparatus for providing touch interface

An electronic device, method, and non-transitory computer readable storage medium for sending a multimedia file are provided. The electronic device includes a memory for storing instructions; and a processor configured to execute the instructions to at least: based on user input for sending the multimedia file towards an external device being received, send address information of the electronic device and file information of the multimedia file towards the external device through a near field communication (NFC) circuit of the electronic device, activate a short-range communication circuit of the electronic device based on the address information and the file information of the multimedia file being sent; based on a connection request from the external device being received, connect the electronic device to the external device through the short-range communication circuit; and send, through the short range communication circuit, the multimedia file towards the external device.

Apparatus and method for transmitting and receiving multimedia data by using NFC

A system and method of providing a service using a Near Field Communication (NFC) tag are provided. A device that receives the service includes a tag information receiving unit that receives tag information from the NFC tag; a service requesting unit that provides a server with application information about an application that is installed in the device and the tag information, and that requests a service corresponding to the application; and a data receiving unit that receives service data from the server. The service data corresponds to the application information and the tag information and differs from each other, according to a type of the application.

System and method of providing a service using a near field communication tag

According to one embodiment, a method for access configuration in a wireless network includes acquiring authentication information of a digital device and information needed to access an Access Point (AP) of the digital device, from a Radio Frequency IDentifier (RFID) tag, and accessing the AP.

Apparatus and method for configuring access in a wireless network

Methods and apparatus are provided for transmitting and receiving multimedia data by using NFC. Communication setup information used to perform short-range communication is delivered from an apparatus for transmitting the multimedia information to an apparatus for receiving multimedia data through the NFC in order to transmit and receive the multimedia data. The apparatus for transmitting the multimedia data connects to the apparatus for receiving the multimedia data through the short-range communication. A group owner that plays a leading role in the transmission and reception of the multimedia data is set through the connected short-range communication. Address information of the apparatus for receiving the multimedia data is acquired. Data is transmitted to and received from the apparatus for receiving the multimedia data by using the acquired address information.

An apparatus and a method for providing a character deletion function is provided. A plurality of deletion items having respective designated deletion schemes are displayed, when there is a request for a deletion mode while inputting characters. It is determined if a Drag event occurs after a Press event occurs in an area where one of the plurality of deletion items is displayed. It is determined if a Release event occurs when the Drag event occurs. A deletion function in a deletion scheme corresponding to a deletion item having an area where the Release event occurs is performed when the Release event occurs. Accordingly, a user has convenience with which, when inputting characters, the user receives various deletion schemes and can perform a desired deletion function in a simple way.

Apparatus and method for providing character deletion function

A digital broadcast signal reproducing system including a first board having a tuner receiving a digital broadcast signal; a second board removably combined with the first board, the second board having a demodulator demodulating the digital broadcast signal into an analog signal and a memory storing information on a broadcasting mode therein; and a device driver controlling the tuner and the demodulator, and various chip sets according to the information on the broadcasting mode stored in the memory. With this configuration, a digital broadcast signal reproducing system and method thereof are economical for a manufacturer and a consumer because only a part thereof depending upon a broadcasting system is changed.
