A head-mounted display (HMD) includes a frame configured to be fixated to a head, a light-transmissive display unit fixated to the frame and outputting a VR image in a VR mode and an AR image in an AR mode, a light transmission control layer having changed transmittance, a lens unit having a refractive index changed in the VR mode and the AR mode, and a controller control the light transmission control layer to increase transmittance in the AR mode and decrease transmittance in the VR mode.

Head-mounted display and method of controlling the same

The present application discloses a smart device comprising a temperature sensor, and a method for controlling the same. The present application relates to a smart device comprising a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature of a certain object at a position spaced a certain distance from the object and having a measurement range varying according to the distance from the object. The present application provides a method for controlling a smart device comprising the steps of: measuring a distance from the smart device to the object for measuring the temperature of the object; if the measurement range of the temperature sensor at the measured position is not placed within the object, notifying a user that the temperature of the object cannot be measured; and directing the user to place the measurement range within the object.

Smart device and method for controlling same

A display apparatus includes: a display unit configured to display an image on a screen; an input unit configured to receive an input from a user; and a control unit configured to control the display unit to display a thumbnail image corresponding to a partial region of a preview image of an omnidirectionally captured image. The control unit is further configured to control the display unit to display an image corresponding to a specific region of the preview image if the input is received. At least one of the specific region and an enlargement ratio of the image corresponding to the specific region is determined based on the input.
