A mobile terminal and a control method thereof are disclosed. According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, a mobile terminal may include a mobile terminal body, a wireless communication unit configured to receive an information input request for user authentication from an external server connected to the body, and a controller configured to transmit a wireless signal for sensing the wearing of a second mobile terminal formed to be paired with the body and wearable on a specific portion of a human body to the second mobile terminal in response to the request, wherein the controller performs wearer authentication for the second mobile terminal in response to receiving at least one of a response signal to the wireless signal from the second mobile terminal and a wearer's biometric signal sensed through the second mobile terminal, and controls the authentication method of the user authentication or processing for an information input corresponding to the authentication method to be determined in a different manner based on at least one of the execution result of the wearer authentication and the analysis result of the received biometric signal.

Mobile terminal and method for controlling the same

Discussed are a smart watch and a control method thereof. The smart watch includes a rotation sensor unit configured to sense a rotation direction and a rotation speed of the smart watch; a display unit configured to display visual information; and a processor configured to control the rotation sensor unit and the display unit and detect a first snap motion and a second snap motion of the smart watch. The first snap motion is detected when the smart watch rotates on an axis of rotation of the smart watch in a first direction at a first threshold speed or more, and the second snap motion is detected when the smart watch rotates on the axis of rotation in the first direction at less than the first threshold speed and then rotates in a second direction at a second threshold speed or more within a predetermined time.

Smart watch and control method thereof

An electronic device and a method for providing a menu are disclosed. The electronic device displays a plurality of words on the screen, detects a first action specifying selection of at least one of the displayed words, searches an option item related to the word selected by the first action, generates at least one menu item based on the selected word and the searched option item, and displays the generated menu item in a first area of the screen.

Electronic device and method for providing menu using the same

A display method of an image display apparatus that includes receiving a broadcast signal, displaying a first number of thumbnail images when the image display apparatus is in a first position (the thumbnail images being based on the received broadcast signal), rotating the image display apparatus from the first position to a second position, and displaying a second number of thumbnail images when the image display apparatus is rotated to the second position, and the second number is different than the first number.
