An image display device including a display; a user input interface; a communication interface which is provided with at least one communication module and transmits and receives a signal including data; a memory; and a control unit for transmitting and receiving data to and from external devices, wherein the control unit performs an authentication procedure pertaining to a first external device based on image display device-related data received from the first external device, receives data, pertaining to a second external device, and at least one control command, related to the control of the second external device, when the authentication procedure is completed, and, when a user input corresponding to one of the one or more control commands is received, transmits a control signal for the control command corresponding to the user input to the second external device based on the data pertaining to the second external device.

Image display device and system, and operation method for same

The present disclosure relates to an image display apparatus and an operating method thereof. The image display apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a display; a network interface unit that performs communication through a network; and a controller, wherein the controller checks an expected end time of content output through the display, obtains frame data for a screen output through the display at a first time point prior to a preset time from the expected end time, calculates an actual end time point of the content based on the obtained frame data, and outputs a user interface (UI) recommending at least one product related to the content, at the calculated actual end time point, through the display. Various other embodiments are possible.

Image display apparatus and operating method thereof

A display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure comprises: a display unit; a user input interface unit which receives a signal from a remote control device; and a control unit which receives a voice signal, and on the basis of data extracted from the voice signal, sets an external device connected to the display device as an object to be controlled by the remote control device.

Display device

A display device and a method for controlling same are disclosed. The display device compares device information of an external electronic device stored in the display device with device information transmitted by the external electronic device, thereby being capable of accurately recognizing a change in the external electronic device communicatively connected with the display device in a state in which the display device is turned off.

Display device and method for controlling same

The present disclosure relates to an image display apparatus and an operating method thereof. The image display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a display; a network interface unit that performs communication through a network; and a controller, wherein the controller generates data for a screen output through the display, when a preset user input is received while a first content is output through the display, obtains data, which corresponds to data of the screen, that is related to an object included in the screen, from a first server through the network interface unit, determines at least one first object related to a position corresponding to the user input, among object included in the screen, based on the data that is related to the object, and outputs a user interface (UI) for the at least one first object through the display. Various other embodiments are possible.

According to an embodiment, a display device includes a display, a network interface configured to communicate with an external server, and a controller configured to capture audio content during playback of Audio/Video (A/V) content, acquire a first content identifier based on the captured audio content, display a first pop-up window corresponding to the acquired first content identifier on the display, when a mute interval is continued for a predetermined time, capture video content, acquire a second content identifier based on captured video content, and, when the acquired second content identifier is not identical to the first content identifier, display a second pop-up window corresponding to the second content identifier on the display.

The present disclosure provides a display device for providing a function of searching for a product, a person, a place, or music appearing in a video, and an operation method therefor. The display device includes a display configured to display video, a user input interface configured to receive a search command, a controller configured to obtain video scene information at a time point when the search command is received, and a network interface configured to receive information about a product included in the video scene at a time point when the search command is received, based on the video scene information, wherein the display is configured to display a search result screen including a product icon representing the product.

Display device and operation method therefor

The objective of the present invention is to provides a display device for automatically recognizing an external device connected to external input terminals, the display device receiving pieces of control information about external devices connected to the same Internet, and then sensing whether a change in the output images occurs during the transmission of a control signal by using the pieces of received control information, while sequentially outputting images received from the external input terminals, thereby recognizing the external device connected to the input terminals.

A display device including a display configured to display content; and a controller configured to capture an image of the displayed content, transmit data of the captured image to an external server, receive content information and a playback time point of the content corresponding to the captured image from the external server, acquire a presence or absence of shopping information related to the displayed content based on the received content information and the playback time point of the content, and display the shopping information on the display according to the acquired presence of the shopping information.

A method of operating a display device includes displaying a first image of first content, wherein the first image includes a target object, receiving information on a second coordinate of the target object included in a second image of the first content from a second display device, wherein the second image is temporally later than the first image, acquiring an image tracking the target object from the second image based on the information on the second coordinate of the target object, and displaying the acquired image.

Display device and operating method thereof

An image display apparatus is disclosed. The image display apparatus includes a display panel, a backlight unit including a plurality of light sources to output light to the display panel, an image receiver to receive multiple images from a plurality of image sources, and a controller to perform control to display the multiple images received from the image receiver and to independently perform local dimming on each of the multiple images according to multiple image display input, and thus performs local dimming for each multiple image during display of the multiple images.

Image display apparatus

An apparatus and method are described for displaying images to a user. The apparatus may include a display configured to display a three-dimensional (3D) image and a pointer in correspondence with movement of a remote controller. The apparatus may further include an interface and a controller. The interface may be configured to provide a shift input for moving the pointer in correspondence with movement of the remote controller, and receive a depth change input for changing a depth value of an object displayed within a reference distance from an area to which the pointer has moved. The controller may be configured to extract a depth value of the object and change the depth value according to the depth change input to control display of a 3D image based on the changed depth value.
