A portable terminal includes an apparatus for improving motion detection capability. More particularly, the apparatus improves motion detection capability by changing a motion in a normal state according to a motion state or by changing a motion detection process in the portable terminal in order to avoid motion detection capability deterioration in the portable terminal are provided. The apparatus includes a terminal state determiner that determines a motion state of the terminal by receiving sensing information for determining the motion state, and a controller that changes a motion detection process according to the portable terminal's motion state determined by the terminal state determiner.

Apparatus and method for motion detection in portable terminal

An electronic device comprising: a sensing circuit configured to detect information relating to a mounting state of the electronic device when the electronic device is mounted on an external device; and a control circuit operatively coupled to the sensing circuit, configured to: detect the mounting state of the electronic device based on the information; and perform a charging operation based on the mounting state of the electronic device.

Methods and apparatuses are provided for controlling a vehicle. The vehicle is controlled to operate in an autonomous driving mode in which the vehicle is driven without a manipulation by an operator of the vehicle. A request to switch to a manual driving mode, in which the vehicle is driven with the manipulation by the operator, is received. A range of the manipulation regarding a function of the vehicle is determined according to a driving situation of the vehicle in response to the request. The vehicle is controlled to operate in the manual driving mode in which the manipulation by the operator is limited according to the range of the manipulation.

Method and apparatus for controlling vehicle

Provided is a method and apparatus for identifying a type of an external device connected to an interface connector in an electronic device. The electronic device may measure a voltage of power that is input to a power supply terminal of the interface connector that includes the power supply terminal and is configured to connect with an external device. The electronic device may identify a type of the external device connected to the interface connector based on the voltage of the input power. In addition, other embodiments are also possible.

Method and apparatus for identifying external device

An apparatus and method are provided for adjusting a touch recognition area on a touch interface. The method includes displaying an item on a screen of a terminal; sensing an approach area according to an approach of a user input object to the touch interface; determining an approach direction of the user input object, based on the approach area; and adjusting a touch recognition area of the item, based on the approach direction.

Apparatus and method for adjusting a touch recognition area in a touch interface

An apparatus and a method detect a motion in a mobile station. A motion is determined via a motion detecting function in the mobile station. A parameter for motion detection is determined from sensor data obtained via a sensor. The extracted parameter for the motion detection is transmitted to a counterpart mobile station. A parameter for motion detection determined by the counterpart mobile station is received from the counterpart mobile station. The extracted parameter is compared with the parameter received from the counterpart mobile station to determine a function associated with a motion input by a user.

Apparatus and method for motion detecting in mobile communication terminal

A portable terminal is configured to perform a method for feature recognition. The portable terminal includes a Global Positioning System (GPS), a camera, a sensor, an image geographic information part, an image processor, and a controller. The GPS provides a position of the portable terminal. The camera photographs an image of a feature. The sensor detects a direction of the camera. The image geographic information part stores an image of each feature and geographic information on each feature. The image processor extracts a characteristic of the image of the feature and compares the extracted characteristic with image information stored in the image geographic info illation part. If recognizing a specific feature through the image processor, the controller proportionally compares geographic information of the image geographic information part with size and direction data on a peripheral feature near the specific feature within an image, and recognizes the peripheral feature.
