A device and method are provided. The device includes a controller, a memory, and a transceiver. The controller generates authentication information based on a user input to the device. The memory stores the generated authentication information. The transceiver receives authentication information, which is generated by a point of sale (POS) terminal based on a user input to the POS terminal, from the POS terminal, when the device enters within a predetermined range from the POS terminal. The controller compares the generated authentication information with the received authentication information, and provides card information which is used in a transaction with respect to an item or a service to the POS terminal based on a result of the comparison.

Method and system for authenticating transaction request from device

This electronic device comprises: a sensor including a plurality of pixels disposed in a first direction; a processor electrically connected to the sensor; and a memory electrically connected to the processor. When implemented, the processor uses sensing data sensed by the sensor and determine user position information, and the memory may store instructions for carrying out a movement corresponding to the user position information.

Electronic device for determining position of user based on image pixels, and method of controlling said device

A system and method for providing location-based personalized information by using user location history information, whereby battery consumption of a computing device is reduced. The computing device includes: a location finder configured to obtain user location information of a user of the computing device; a display configured to display information indicating a route of the user of the computing device; and a controller configured to track a location of the user by controlling the location finder as the controller senses a change in the location of the user based on the obtained user location information, obtain information corresponding to an initial route of the user based on the tracked location of the user, detect a predicted route of the user from user location history information based on the information corresponding to the initial route of the user, and display on the display unit the predicted route.

System for providing personalized information and method of providing the personalized information

A method of acquiring and processing information on a mobile terminal is provided. The method includes: receiving, at the mobile terminal, information about at least one item displayed on an external display device from the external display device; and performing, at the mobile terminal, a function for the at least one item based on the received information.

Information providing method, mobile terminal and display device for the same

An apparatus and a method for sharing contents provided based on a social network between members of the social network. A content providing method includes, when a first terminal in a social network requests to use content, transmitting the corresponding content to the first terminal. The method also includes transmitting content use information associated with the first terminal to at least one adjacent terminal in the social network, via the social network. The method further includes, when a second terminal of the at least one adjacent terminal requests to use the same content as the first terminal, transmitting the same content to the second terminal.

Apparatus and method for providing streaming music service

A mobile terminal is provided. The mobile terminal includes a short-range communicator, a security server and a payment method thereof, the mobile terminal including a short-range communicator which exchanges data by a predetermined short-range technology, a payment processor which performs a payment process corresponding to a preset standard in response to a user's request for payment, and a secure world which communicates with the payment processor, extracts secure information from data and stores the data therein and masks the secure information from the outside. Thus, the secure data may be masked at the time of communication with the outside.

Mobile terminal, security server and payment method thereof

A method performed by a first application in a client apparatus to authenticate a second application in the client apparatus is provided. The method includes, when the first application receives an execution request from the second application, requesting authentication information of the second application from an authentication server, obtaining the authentication information of the second application from the authentication server, and authenticating the second application using the authentication information, wherein the authentication information of the second application is signed with a private key of the authentication server.
