A remote control device is disclosed. a remote control device includes: a user interface; a memory storing at least one instruction and a plurality of binary codes; a communication interface; and at least one processor operatively connected with the user interface, the memory, and the communication interface and configured to execute the at least one instruction to: identify, based on a user command receiving through the user interface, a binary code corresponding to the user command from among the plurality of binary codes, identify, based on a pre-set number of bit units, a plurality of bit groups corresponding to the binary code, and control the communication interface to transmit a first pulse signal corresponding to the plurality of bit groups.

Remote control device, electronic device and control methods thereof

A display device comprises a display unit, a communication unit and a processor, which identifies, based on an IR signal received through the communication unit, whether there is a pairing history of a remote controller and the display device, identifies whether there is a Bluetooth connection between the display device and the remote controller, counts a number of times the Bluetooth connection had been cut off between the display device and the remote controller, and controls, based on the counted number of times the Bluetooth connection had been cut off, the display unit so that a user interface (UI) for pairing with the remote controller is displayed.

Display device and display device control method

Disclosed are a display apparatus and a method of controlling the same. a display apparatus including: a display; an optical sensor; and a processor configured to: identify an operation cycle shorter than an idle section of an infrared (IR) signal and including at least a part of a section for a detection operation of the optical sensor, based on the IR signal of which a signal section corresponding to a user key input and the idle section are repeated on a predetermined cycle, control the optical sensor to repetitively perform the detection operation on the identified operation cycle, and perform a predetermined operation based on a detection value obtained by the detection operation of the optical sensor.

Display apparatus and control method thereof

An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes a signal receiver configured to receive a first wireless signal; a signal transmitter configured to output a second wireless signal; and a processor configured to: identify an external apparatus based on an input key indicated by the first wireless signal as the first wireless signal is repeatedly received through the signal receiver; identify the second wireless signal based on the input key and the external apparatus; and control the signal transmitter to repeatedly output the second wireless signal while the first wireless signal is repeatedly received. Each of the first wireless signal and the second wireless signal alternately comprises a signal section corresponding to the input key and an idle section, and the processor is further configured to control the signal transmitter to output the second wireless signal during the idle section of the first wireless signal.

Electronic apparatus and method of controlling the same

An electronic apparatus and method of controlling the electronic apparatus are provided. The electronic apparatus includes an operation performer, network communicator circuitry that performs network communication with a server, infrared communicator circuitry, and a processor that controls the operation performer to perform a predetermined operation, obtains information of an external device from a first infrared signal of the external device, is the first infrared signal being obtained through the infrared communicator circuitry, controls the network communicator circuitry to transmit the obtained information of the external device to the server to register the external device as a control target, obtains a control command for controlling the external device from the server, and controls the infrared communicator circuitry to transmit a second infrared signal, which contains command information based on the obtained control command, to the external device to make the external device perform an operation corresponding to the obtained control command.

Electronic device, server and method of controlling the same

An electronic apparatus includes a memory storing a firmware including a plurality of pieces of code set information corresponding to a plurality of external devices; a communication interface; and a processor configured to: receive an infrared (IR) signal corresponding to an external device of the plurality of external devices through the communication interface, and identify code set information corresponding to the IR signal among the plurality of pieces of code set information by sequentially using a header area of the received IR signal and a data area of the received IR signal, and based on a control command being input from a remote controller of the electronic apparatus, generate the IR signal corresponding to the control command based on the identified code set information.

Electronic apparatus and controlling method thereof

A display apparatus includes: a display configured to display an image; a first transmitter configured to transmit a first wireless signal to an external device; a second transmitter configured to transmit a second wireless signal having a same period as the first wireless signal transmitted by the first transmitter to the external device; a signal receiver configured to receive the first wireless signal and the second wireless signal; and a processor configured to identify a time difference between the signal receiver receiving the first wireless signal and the signal receiver receiving the second wireless signal, and control the first transmitter to transmit, to the external device, the first wireless signal that is compensated based on the identified time difference, or control the second transmitter to transmit, to the external device, the second wireless signal that is compensated based on the identified time difference.
