A digital television including a display, an interface, a communication unit, a broadcast receiver, and a controller to: display broadcast content, display a screen corresponding to a voice recognition mode, receive a first voice command signal corresponding to a first voice command, which is a single voice command including a first part defining a search source of an Internet based search engine and a second part defining a first search keyword, display a web page corresponding to the search source, which includes a first search result corresponding to first information stored on a remote server, receive a second voice command signal corresponding to a second voice command, in which the second voice command is a single voice command including the first search keyword, and display a second search result corresponding to the first search keyword from the second voice command, which corresponds to second information stored in the digital television.

Electronic device and method for controlling the same

A digital television can include a display; an interface to receive a control signal from a remote controller; a communication unit for internet access; a broadcast receiver; and a controller to display broadcast content received through the broadcast receiver, display a screen corresponding to a voice recognition mode in response to entering the voice recognition mode, the screen includes a symbol and text indicating the voice recognition mode, receive a voice command signal corresponding to a voice command through the remote controller in the voice recognition mode while the broadcast content is displayed, in which the voice command is input via a microphone provided in the remote controller, and the input voice command includes a search source and a search keyword, and display a web page corresponding to the search source included in the voice command, which includes a search window including the search keyword and a search result.

An electronic device and a method for controlling an electronic device are disclosed. The electronic device includes: a display unit; a voice input unit; and a controller displaying a plurality of contents on the display unit, receiving a voice command for controlling any one of the plurality of contents through the voice input unit, and controlling content corresponding to the received voice command. Multitasking performed by the electronic device can be effectively controlled through a voice command.

The present invention relates to a method for providing a user interface on a terminal, which provides a user interactive information search service that uses, as information, a user response to an information search request so as to overcome local limitations coverable by an information search service and expand a search function for the domain that cannot be supported. A method for providing a user interface on a terminal according to one embodiment disclosed in the present specification comprises a step of transmitting, to a server, an information search request based on a user voice input; a step of receiving, from the server, a response to the information search request; and a step of displaying an item to take, in the form of a voice input, a user response to the information search request in the event that the response indicates that there is nothing found as a search result.

Method for providing user interface on terminal

An electronic device and a method of operating the same are provided. More particularly, in an electronic device and a method of operating the same, by recognizing a keyword of contents, reflecting the contents, and executing an application corresponding to the recognized keyword, an application execution environment corresponding to a user intention is provided.

Electronic device and method of operating the same

A flexible display device and method for detecting a bend on the device are discussed. The method includes detecting a first bend on the flexible display device and measuring a first degree of the first bend; recognizing the first bend as a first valid flex input when the measured first degree of bend surpasses a first error threshold value; and recognizing an end of the first valid flex input when the measured first degree of bend falls below a first release threshold value, wherein a maximum degree of bend measured during the first bend is recognized as a first peak value, wherein the first error threshold value is determined based on a degree before the flexible display device is bent and the first release threshold value is determined based on the first peak value, and wherein the first release threshold value is different from the first error threshold value.

Bending threshold and release for a flexible display device

A flexible display device and a method for accurately recognizing a user's flex input bending of the flexible display device is described. The present invention is able to discard unintentional flexing of the flexible display device while being able to accurately recognize a user's intended flex input command based on a number of bending degree thresholds. A first bending threshold must be overcome in order to initially recognize a user's flex input as a valid flex input command. Then the user's flex input must fall below a second bending threshold in order to cease the recognition of the user's flex input as a valid flex input.
