Mobile terminal and control method thereof

The present invention provides a mobile terminal and a method for controlling the mobile terminal. According to the present invention, when a change in the posture of a mobile terminal is detected while an external device paired with the mobile terminal is responding to a received call, different information can be displayed according to the change in the posture of the mobile terminal.

Mobile terminal

The present invention relates to a mobile terminal and a method of operating the same. A mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a display to display screen information thereon, a user input unit to receive a capture command, and a controller to capture the screen information according to the capture command and detect an operation associated with the captured screen information. In addition, the controller detects an entry into a capture utilization mode, and displays a menu varied based on an operation detected after the capture command together with the captured screen information in the capture utilization mode.

Mobile terminal and method for operating the same

The present invention relates to a mobile terminal having a touch screen configured to perform fingerprint recognition and a control method therefor. A mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a wireless communication unit; a touch screen including a fingerprint recognition sensor; and a controller configured to cause the touch screen to display a virtual home button at one area of the touch screen based on a touch received at the one area; perform fingerprint authentication on a fingerprint of a finger used to apply the touch to the virtual home button via the fingerprint recognition sensor when the touch is maintained at the one area after the virtual home button is displayed.

The present invention relates to a mobile terminal, which can sense a touch input in which a touch screen is tapped while the touch screen is in an inactivated state, and a communication system thereof, and provides a mobile terminal comprising: a wireless communication unit for transmitting and receiving data to/from an external terminal positioned within a predetermined distance; a touch screen converted, to another state, from one of an activated state in which the light is on and an inactivated state in which the light is off, and formed so as to sense a touch input; and a control unit for sensing, by using the touch screen, a plurality of touch inputs to be applied to the touch screen, which is in the inactivated state, unlocking a locking state when the sensed touch inputs are matched with a preset pattern, converting the touch screen, which is in the inactivated state, into the activated state, and transmitting, to the external terminal, an unlocking command formed so as to unlock the locking state of the external terminal, wherein the external terminal unlocks the locking state by responding to the unlocking command, and displays preset screen information on a display unit provided in the external terminal.

Mobile terminal having display screen and communication system thereof for unlocking connected devices using an operation pattern

A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, by which a mobile terminal of a watch type can be remotely controlled. The present invention includes a wireless communication unit configured to perform a wireless communication, a sensing unit configured to sense a gesture input, a display unit configured to output an information, and a controller, if a first type gesture is inputted, controlling at least one of a display of a detailed information of an unidentified event, a response to an event occurrence and an activation of a prescribed application to be performed in response to the inputted first type gesture.

Mobile terminal and controlling method thereof

A mobile terminal includes: a display unit configured to display an omnidirectional spherical image acquired through an omnidirectional capturing device; and a controller configured to cut out a partial image of the omnidirectional spherical image through a crop handler displayed on the omnidirectional spherical image and display a stitched omnidirectional image by stitching remaining regions of the omnidirectional spherical image.

Mobile terminal and operating method thereof

A mobile terminal including a main body; a wireless communication unit configured to transmit and receive a call signal and a voice signal to and from an external terminal; a grip sensor disposed on a side surface of the main body and configured to sense an external force applied to the side surface; and a controller configured to execute a call function with an external terminal, and execute a function related to the call function when a grip input is sensed through the grip sensor during the execution of the call function.
