The memory 170 is typically implemented to store data to to support various functions or features of the mobile terminal 100.
[0013] For example, the memory 170 may be configured to store application programs executed in the mobile terminal 100, data or instructions for operations of the mobile terminal 100, etc. Some of these application programs can be downloaded from an external server via wireless communication. Other application programs may be installed in the mobile terminal 100 at the time of its manufacture or shipment, which is typically the case for basic functions of the mobile terminal 100 (for example, receiving a call). , making a call, receiving a message, sending a message, etc.). It is common for application programs to be stored in the memory 170, to be installed in the mobile terminal 100 and to be executed by the controller 180 to perform an operation (or function) for the terminal The controller 180 typically operates to control all operations of the mobile terminal 100, in addition to the operations associated with the application programs. The controller 180 may provide or process information or functions appropriate for a user by processing signals, data, information, etc. which are input or output by the various components shown in Fig. 1A, or by activation of the application programs stored in the memory 170.

The operation or the control method of the glasses-type terminal can be implemented on the glasses-type terminal by the execution of at least one application program stored in the memory 170.
[0014] Still with reference to FIG. 1A, various components illustrated in this figure will now be described in more detail. With respect to the wireless communication unit 110, the broadcast receiving module 111 is typically configured to receive a broadcast signal and / or information associated with a broadcast of an external broadcast management entity via a broadcast. broadcasting channel. The broadcast channel may include a satellite channel, a terrestrial channel, or both. In some embodiments, two or more broadcast receiving modules 111 may be used to make possible the simultaneous reception of two or more broadcast channels, or to allow switching among broadcast channels. The mobile communication module 112 may transmit wireless signals to and / or receive from one or more network entities. Typical examples of a network entity include a base station, an external mobile terminal, a server, and the like. Such network entities form part of a mobile communication network which is constructed according to technical standards or communication methods for mobile communications (eg, global mobile telecommunication system (GSM), multiple access to code division (CDMA), broadband CDMA (WCDMA), high speed packet mode (HSDPA) downlink access, long term evolution (LTE) and similar standards). Examples of wireless signals transmitted and / or received via the mobile communication module 112 include audio call signals, video (telephony) call signals, or various data formats to support communication. text and multimedia messages. The wireless Internet module 113 is configured to enable access to the wireless Internet. This module can be internally or externally coupled to the mobile terminal 100. The wireless Internet module 113 can transmit and / or receive wireless signals via communication networks according to wireless Internet technologies. Examples of such wireless access to the Internet include Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN), Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, Digital Living Network Alliance 10 (DLNA), Wireless Broadband (WiBro), Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX), High Speed Packet Access (HSDPA), High Speed Packet Access (HSUPA), Long Term Evolution (LTE), Advanced Long Term Evolution (LTE-A) and similar processes. The wireless Internet module 113 may transmit / receive data according to one or more of said wireless Internet technologies and also according to other Internet technologies. In some embodiments, when wireless access to the Internet is implemented according to, for example WiBro, HSDPA, HSUPA, GSM, CDMA, WCDMA, LTE, LTE-A, etc., as part of a Mobile communication network, the wireless Internet module 113 makes such wireless access to the Internet. Thus, the Internet module 113 can cooperate with the mobile communication module 112 or operate as a mobile communication module 112. The short-range communication module 114 is configured to make possible short-range communications. Suitable technologies for implementing such short-range communications include BLUETOOTHTm, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Infrared Data Association (IrDA), UltraWideBand (UWB), ZigBee, Near Field Communication (NFC), Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Fi Direct, Wireless USB, etc. The short-range communication module 114 generally supports wireless communications between the mobile terminal 100 and a wireless communication system, communications between the mobile terminal 100 and another mobile terminal 100, or communications between the terminal. mobile and a network in which is located another mobile terminal 100 (or an external server 3028630 12), via wireless networks. An example of wireless networks is a wireless personal network. In some embodiments, another mobile terminal (which may be similarly configured to the mobile terminal 100) may be a portable device, for example, a smart watch, electronic glasses or a face display (HMD), which is capable of exchanging data with the mobile terminal 100 (or else to cooperate with the mobile terminal 100). The short-range communication module 114 can detect or recognize the portable device and allow communication between the portable device and the mobile terminal 100.
[0015] In addition, when the detected portable device is a device that is authenticated to communicate with the mobile terminal 100, the controller 180 may, for example, cause the transmission of processed data in the mobile terminal 100 to the portable device via the module. 114. Thus, a user of the portable device can use the data processed in the mobile terminal 100 on the portable device. For example, when a call is received in the mobile terminal 100, the user can respond. to the call using the portable device. In addition, when a message is received in the mobile terminal 100, the user can check the received message using the portable device. The location information module 115 is generally configured to detect, calculate, derive or otherwise identify a position of the mobile terminal. By way of example, the location information module 115 comprises a GPS module (global positioning system), a Wi-Fi module or both. If desired, the location information module 115 may alternatively or additionally operate with any of the other modules of the wireless communication unit 110 to obtain data relating to the position of the mobile terminal. For example, when the mobile terminal uses a GPS module, a position of the mobile terminal can be acquired using a signal sent by a GPS satellite. In another example, when the mobile terminal uses the Wi-Fi module, a position of the mobile terminal can be acquired based on information about a wireless access point (AP) that transmits a wireless signal to the module. Wi-Fi or receives one from the latter. The input unit 120 may be configured to allow various types of inputs to the mobile terminal 120. Examples of such inputs include 13 audio content inputs, image and video inputs, data inputs, and so on. and user inputs. An image and video input is often obtained using one or more cameras 121. Such cameras 121 may process still or moving image frames obtained by image sensors in a video mode. image or video capture. The processed image frames may be displayed on the display unit 151 or stored in the memory 170. In some cases, the cameras 121 may be arranged in a matrix configuration to allow the mobile terminal 100 to enter a plurality of locations. images having various angles or focal points. In another example, the cameras 121 may be placed in a stereoscopic arrangement to acquire left and right images for implementation in a stereoscopic image. The microphone 122 is generally implemented to allow audio input into the mobile terminal 100. The audio input can be processed in various ways according to a function being performed in the mobile terminal 100. If desired, the microphone 122 may comprise noise canceling algorithms for suppressing unwanted noise generated during the reception of external audio signals. The user input unit 123 is a component that allows input by a user. Such user input may enable the controller 180 to control an operation of the mobile terminal 100. The user input unit 123 may include one or more mechanical input elements (for example, a key, a button located on a front and / or rear surface or on a side surface of the mobile terminal 100, a dome switch, a thumb wheel, a push button, etc.), or a touch input, among other elements. For example, the touch input 25 may be a virtual key or a softkey that is displayed on a touch screen through software processing, or a touch key that is located on the mobile terminal at a location. which is other than the touch screen. On the other hand, the virtual key or the visual key can be displayed on the touch screen in various forms, for example, a graphic, text, icon, video, or combination thereof. The detection unit 140 is generally configured to detect one or more of the internal information of the mobile terminal, information about the surrounding environment of the mobile terminal, user information or similar information. The controller 180 generally cooperates with the transmit unit 140 to control an operation of the mobile terminal 100 or execute a data processing, a function or an operation associated with an application program installed in the mobile terminal on the basis of the detection provided by the detection unit 140. The detection unit 140 may be implemented using any one of a large number of sensors some of which will now be described in greater detail. The proximity sensor 141 may include a sensor for detecting the presence or absence of an object approaching a surface or object located near a surface, using a field electromagnetic, infrared or similar means without mechanical contact. The proximity sensor 141 may be placed in an internal region of the mobile terminal covered by the touch screen or near the touch screen. The proximity sensor 141, for example, may include a transmitter type photoelectric sensor or a direct reflection type photoelectric sensor, a mirror reflection type photoelectric sensor, a high frequency oscillation proximity sensor, a sensor capacitive type proximity switches, a magnetic type proximity sensor, an infrared proximity sensor, and similar sensors. When the implemented touch screen is of the capacitive type, the proximity sensor 141 can detect a proximity of a pointer relative to the touch screen by variations of an electromagnetic field that is sensitive to an approach of an object presenting a conductivity. In this case, the touch screen (touch sensor) can also be categorized as a proximity sensor.
[0016] The term "proximity touch" will often be referred to herein as the scenario in which a pointer is positioned to be close to the touch screen without being in contact with the touch screen. The term "touch contact" will often be referred to here as the scenario in which a pointer produces physical contact with the touch screen. For the position corresponding to the proximity of the pointer relative to the touch screen, such a position will correspond to a position where the pointer is perpendicular to the touch screen. The proximity sensor 141 can detect a proximity touch and proximity touch parameters (e.g., distance, direction, speed, time, position, state of motion, etc.). In general, the controller 180 processes data corresponding to the proximity touch and proximity touch parameters detected by the proximity sensor 141, and causes visual information to be displayed on the touch screen. In addition, the controller 180 may control the mobile terminal 100 to perform different operations or to process different data depending on whether a touch relative to a point on the touch screen is either a proximity touch or a touch contact.
[0017] A touch sensor can detect a touch applied to the touch screen, such as a display unit 151, by any one of a variety of touch input methods. Examples of such touch input methods include a resistive type, a capacitive type, an infrared type and a magnetic type, among other types.
[0018] By way of example, the touch sensor may be configured to convert pressure changes applied to a specific portion of the display unit 151, or to convert a capacitance occurring at a specific portion of the display unit. 151, in electrical input signals. The touch sensor may also be configured to detect not only an affected position and an affected area, but also contact pressure and / or contact capacitance. A contact object is typically used to apply a touch input to the touch sensor. Examples of typical contact objects include a finger, a pencil, a stylus, a pointer, or a similar object. When a touch input is detected by a touch sensor, corresponding signals can be transmitted to a touch controller. The touch controller can process the received signals and then transmit corresponding data to the controller 180. Accordingly, the controller 180 can detect the region of the display unit 151 that has been touched. Here, the touch controller may be a separate component of the controller 180, the controller 180, and combinations of both.
[0019] In some embodiments, the controller 180 may execute the same or different commands depending on a type of touch object that touches the touch screen or a type of touch key provided in addition to the touch screen. The execution of the same command or a different command depending on the object which provides a touch input can be decided, for example, on the basis of a current state of operation of the mobile terminal 100 or a program. application currently running. The touch sensor and the proximity sensor may be implemented, individually or in combination, to detect various types of touch. Such touches include a short touch (or small tap), a long touch, a multiple touch, a slipped touch, a touch with a tap, a pinch, a touch away, a sweeping touch, a hovering touch, etc. . If desired, an ultrasonic sensor may be implemented to recognize positional information relating to a contact object using ultrasonic waves. The controller 180, for example, can calculate a position of a wave generating source based on the information detected by a light sensor and a plurality of ultrasonic sensors. Since light is much faster than ultrasonic waves, the time that the light takes to reach the optical sensor is much shorter than the time the ultrasonic wave takes to reach the ultrasonic sensor. The position of the wave generator source can be calculated using this fact. For example, the position of the wave generating source can be calculated using the time difference from the time the ultrasonic wave makes to reach the sensor based on the light serving as a reference signal. . The image acquisition device 121 typically comprises at least one camera sensor (CCD, CMOS, etc.), a photographic sensor (or image sensors) and a laser sensor. The implementation of the image acquisition device 121 with a laser sensor may allow detection of a contact of a physical object with respect to a 3D stereoscopic image. The photographic sensor may be laminated to the display or partially cover the display. The photographic sensor may be configured to analyze motion of the physical object near the touch screen. In more detail, the photographic sensor 30 may comprise lines and columns of photodiodes and phototransistors for analyzing a content received in the photographic sensor by means of an electrical signal which varies according to the amount of light applied. More specifically, the photographic sensor can calculate the coordinates of the physical object according to a variation of light to thereby obtain position information of the physical object. The display unit 151 is generally configured to display processed information in the mobile terminal 100. For example, the display unit 151 may display run screen information of an application program. executing on the mobile terminal 100 or user interface information (UI) and graphical user interface (GUI) information in response to the information for the execution screen. In some embodiments, the display unit 151 may be implemented as a stereoscopic display unit for displaying stereoscopic images. A typical stereoscopic display unit may employ a stereoscopic display system such as a stereoscopic system (a system with glasses), an auto-stereoscopic system (a system without glasses), a projection system (holographic system) or similar systems.
[0020] The audio output module 152 is generally configured to output audio data. Such audio data can be obtained from any one of a number of different sources so that the audio data can be received from the wireless communication unit 110 or may have been stored in the memory. The audio data may be output during modes such as a signal receiving mode, a calling mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, a broadcast receiving mode, and the like. The audio output module 152 can provide an audible output relating to a particular function (e.g., a call signal receiving tone, a message receiving tone, etc.) performed by the mobile terminal 100. The Audio output 152 may also be implemented as a receiver, loudspeaker, buzzer, or similar device. A haptic module 153 may be configured to generate various tactile effects that a user feels, perceives or otherwise experiences. A typical example of a tactile effect generated by the haptic module 153 is a vibration. Intensity, shape, etc. the vibration generated by the haptic module 153 can be controlled by a user selection or by a controller setting. For example, the haptic module 153 may emit different vibrations in a combined manner or in a sequential manner. In addition to a vibration, the haptic module 153 can generate various other tactile effects, including a stimulating effect such as an arrangement of pins moving vertically to touch the skin, a jet force or suction force. air through a jet orifice or suction opening, contact on the skin, contact of an electrode, electrostatic force, an effect by reproduction of the feeling of cold and heat at using an element that can absorb or generate heat, etc.
[0021] The haptic module 153 may also be implemented to allow the user to experience a tactile effect through a muscular sensation such as the user's fingers or arm, as well as to transfer the tactile effect to the user. through direct contact. Two or more haptic modules 153 may be present according to the particular configuration of the mobile terminal 100.
[0022] An optical output module 154 may output a signal to indicate generation of an event using light from a light source. Examples of events generated in the mobile terminal 100 may include receiving a message, receiving a call signal, a missed call, an alarm, a scheduling deadline receiving information through an application, etc. A signal generated by the optical output module 154 may be implemented in such a manner that the mobile terminal emits monochromatic light or light with a plurality of colors. The outputted signal may be stopped, for example, when the mobile terminal detects that a user has checked the generated event. The interface unit 160 serves as an interface for external devices to connect to the mobile terminal 100. For example, the interface unit 160 can receive data transmitted by an external device, receive energy to be transferred to elements and components in the mobile terminal 100, or transmitting internal data from the mobile terminal 100 to such an external device. The interface unit 160 may include wired or wireless headphone-microphone ports, external power ports, wired or wireless data ports, memory card ports, ports for connecting a device having a identification module, 19 input / output (I / O) ports, video I / O ports, headphone ports, or similar ports. The identification module may be a chip that stores various information for authenticating an entity using the mobile terminal 100 and may include a user identity module (UIM), a subscriber identity module (SIM), a Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM) and similar modules. In addition, the device having the identification module (also called here "identification device") can take the form of a smart card. Accordingly, the identification device can be connected to the terminal 100 via the interface unit 160. When the mobile terminal 100 is connected to an external medium, the interface unit 160 can be used as a passage to allow power from the medium may be provided to the mobile terminal 100 or it may be used to allow various control signals input by the user to be transferred from the medium to the mobile terminal through the unit. interface. Various control signals or energy input from the medium may function as signals to recognize that the mobile terminal is properly mounted on the medium. Memory 170 may store programs to perform operations of controller 180 and store input / output data (eg, a phone book, messages, still images, videos, etc.). The memory 170 can store data relating to various forms of vibration and audio sounds that are output in response to touch inputs on the touch screen. The memory 170 may comprise one or more types of storage media including a flash memory, a hard disk, an electronic disk, a silicon disk, a micro type of multimedia card, a card type memory (for example, SD memory or DX, etc.), a random access memory (RAM), a static memory (SRAIVI), a read only memory (ROM), an erasable and electrically programmable read only memory (EEPROM), a programmable read only memory (PROM), a memory magnetic disk, a magnetic disk, an optical disk and similar memory devices. The mobile terminal 100 may also be used in connection with a network storage device which performs the storage function of the memory 170 in a network such as the Internet.
[0023] The controller 180 may typically control the general operations of the mobile terminal 100. For example, the controller 180 may activate or deactivate a lockout state to prevent a user from entering a command instruction about applications when a terminal state mobile meets a predefined condition. The controller 180 may also perform control and processing associated with voice calls, data communications, video calls, etc., or perform pattern recognition processing to recognize a handwritten input or a handwritten input. entry of drawings of an image made on the touch screen in the form respectively of characters or images. In addition, the controller 180 may control one of these components or a combination of these components to implement various embodiments given herein by way of example. The power supply unit 190 receives external energy or has internal energy and provides the appropriate power required to operate respective elements and components included in the mobile terminal 100. The power supply unit 190 may include a battery that is typically rechargeable or may be detachably coupled to the terminal body for charging. The power supply unit 190 may include a connection port.
[0024] The connection port may be configured as one of the examples of the interface unit 160 to which an external charger is electrically connected to provide power for recharging the battery. In another example, the power supply unit 190 may be configured to recharge the battery in a wireless manner without using the connection port. In this circumstance, the power supply unit 190 can receive energy, transferred from an external wireless energy transmitter, using at least one inductive coupling method which is based on the magnetic induction and / or a magnetic resonance coupling method which is based on electromagnetic resonance.
[0025] Various embodiments described herein may be implemented on a computer-readable medium, on a machine-readable medium or on a similar medium using, for example, software components, hardware components or any combination thereof.
[0026] Referring now to Figures 1B and 1C, the mobile terminal 100 is described with reference to a bar-type terminal body. However, the mobile terminal 100 may alternatively be implemented in any of a large number of different configurations. Examples of such configurations include a watch type, a clip type, an eyewear type or as a folding type, a folding type, a sliding type, an oscillating type and a pivoting type in which two or more bodies are combined. with each other in a relatively mobile manner, and combinations of these types. The description will often relate to a particular type of mobile terminal (eg, a bar type, a watch type, a spectacle type, etc.). However, such teachings regarding a particular type of mobile terminal will generally also be applied to other types of mobile terminals. The mobile terminal 100 will generally include a housing (for example, frame, box, cover, etc.) forming the appearance of the terminal. In this embodiment, the housing is formed using a front housing 101 and a rear housing 102. Various electronic components are incorporated in a space formed between the front housing 101 and the rear housing 102. at least one central housing may be further positioned between the front housing 101 and the rear housing 102. The display unit 151 is shown located on the front side of the terminal body for displaying information. As shown in the figure, a window 151a of the display unit 151 may be mounted on the front housing 101 to form the front surface of the terminal body together with the front housing 101. In some embodiments, electronic components can also be mounted on the back box 102. Examples of such electronic components include a detachable battery 191, an identification module, a memory card, etc. A rear cover 103 is shown covering the electronic components, and this cover can be detachably coupled to the rear housing 102. Therefore, when the rear cover 103 is detached from the rear housing 102, the electronic components mounted on the rear housing 102 are exposed. As illustrated, when the rear cover 103 is coupled to the rear housing 102, a side surface of the rear housing 102 is partially uncovered. In some cases, during coupling, the back box 102 may also be fully shielded by the rear cover 103. In some embodiments, the back cover 103 may include an opening for exposing a camera 121b or a display module. 152b audio output. The housings 101, 102, 103 may be formed of injection molded synthetic resin or may be formed of a metal, for example, stainless steel (STS), aluminum (Al), titanium (Ti ) or a similar metal. As an alternative to the example in which the plurality of housings form an internal space for housing components, the mobile terminal 100 may be configured such that a housing forms the internal space. In this circumstance, a mobile terminal 100 having a single body is formed in such a way that the synthetic resin or metal extends from a side surface to a back surface. If desired, the mobile terminal 100 may include a water seal unit (not shown) to prevent the ingress of water into the body of the terminal. For example, the water seal unit may include a water seal which is located between the window 151a and the front housing 101, between the front housing 101 and the rear housing 102, or between the rear housing 102 and the rear cover 103 to hermetically seal an internal space when these housings are assembled. Figures 1B and 1C show some components as they are arranged on the mobile terminal. However, it should be understood that other arrangements are possible and remain in the teachings of the present disclosure. Some components may be omitted or arranged differently. For example, the first handling unit 123a may be located on another surface of the terminal body and the second audio output module 152b may be located on the side surface of the terminal body.
[0027] The display unit 151 displays processed information in the mobile terminal 100. The display unit 151 may be implemented using one or more appropriate display devices. Examples of such suitable display devices include a liquid crystal display (LCD), a thin-film transistor (TFT-LCD), an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) flexible display, a three-dimensional display. (3D), an electronic ink display and combinations of these displays.
[0028] The display unit 151 may be implemented using two display devices which may each implement identical or different display technology. For example, a plurality of display units 151 may be arranged on one side only, spaced from each other, or these devices may be integrated, or these devices may be arranged on different surfaces. The display unit 151 may also include a touch sensor that detects a touch input received on the display unit. When a touch is made on the display unit 151, the touch sensor can be configured to detect that touch and the controller 180, for example, can generate a control command 10 or other signal corresponding to the touch. Content that is entered in a tactile manner can be a text or numerical value, or a menu item that can be indicated or designated in various ways. The touch sensor may be configured as a film having a tactile structure, disposed between the window 151a and a display on a rear surface 15 of the window 151a, or in the form of a wire which is distributed directly on the rear surface of the window 151a. Alternatively, the touch sensor can be integrally formed with the display. For example, the touch sensor may be disposed on a substrate of the display or within the display. The display unit 151 may also form a touch screen together with the touch sensor. Here, the touch screen can serve as a user input unit 123 (see Figure 1A). Therefore, the touch screen can replace at least some of the functions of the first handling unit 123a. The first audio output module 152a may be implemented as a speaker to output voice audio sounds, alarm sounds, multimedia audio reproduction, and the like. The window 151a of the display unit 151 will typically include a port for passing audio sounds generated by the first audio output module 152a. One alternative is to allow the audio sounds to be broadcast along an assembly gap between the structural bodies (for example, a gap between the window 151a and the front housing 101). In this case, an independently formed hole for outputting audio sounds may not be visible or otherwise hidden in appearance, further simplifying the appearance and fabrication of the mobile terminal 100.
[0029] The optical output module 154 may be configured to emit light indicating the generation of an event. Examples of such events include message reception, call waiting reception, missed call, alarm, scheduling deadline, electronic mail reception, information reception through an application. etc. When a user has controlled a generated event, the controller can control the optical output unit 154 to stop the light emission. The first camera 121a may process image frames such as still or moving images obtained by the image sensor in a capture mode or in a video calling mode. The processed image frames may be displayed on the display unit 151 or stored in the memory 170. The first and second manipulation units 123a and 123b are examples of the user input unit 123 and may be manipulated by a user to provide an input to the mobile terminal 100. The first and second handling units 123a and 123b may also be commonly referred to as a "handling part" and may employ any tactile method that allows the user to perform a manipulation such as contact, pressure, scrolling, etc. The first and second handling units 123a and 123b may also employ any non-touch method that allows the user to perform manipulation such as proximity touch, flyover, etc. Figure 1B illustrates the first handling unit 123a as a touch key, but possible variants include a mechanical key, a push button, a touch key and combinations of these keys. An input received on the first and second handling units 123a and 123b can be used in a variety of ways. For example, the first handling unit 123a may be used by the user to provide menu entry, home key, cancel, search, etc., and the second handling unit 123b may be used by the user. user to provide an input for controlling a volume level output from the first or second audio output module 152a or 152b to switch to a touch recognition mode of the display unit 151, or a similar function. In another example of the user input unit 123, a rear input unit (not shown) may be located on the rear surface of the terminal body. The rear input unit may be manipulated by a user to provide an input to the mobile terminal 100. The input may be used in a number of different ways. For example, the rear input unit may be used by the user to provide an input for start / stop, start, end, scroll, output control volume level of the first or second audio output module 152a, or 152b, to switch to a touch recognition mode of the display unit 151, etc. The rear input unit can be configured to allow touch input, pressure input, or combinations of these inputs. The rear input unit may be located to partially cover the display unit 151 on the front side in a direction of the thickness of the terminal body. By way of example, the rear input unit may be located on an upper end portion of the rear face of the terminal body so that a user can easily manipulate it with his index finger when the user holds the terminal body with one hand. Alternatively, the rear input unit may be positioned at almost any position on the back side of the terminal body. Embodiments that include the rear input unit may implement some or all of the functionality of the first handling unit 123a in the rear input unit. Thus, in situations where the first handling unit 123a is omitted from the front face, the display unit 151 may have a larger screen. In another variant, the mobile terminal 100 may include a fingerprint sensor that analyzes a fingerprint of a user. The controller 180 can then use the fingerprint information detected by the fingerprint sensor as part of an authentication procedure. The fingerprint sensor may also be installed in the display unit 151 or implemented in the user input unit 123. The microphone 122 is shown located at one end of the mobile terminal 100, but other locations are possible. If desired, multiple microphones may be implemented, such an arrangement permitting the reception of stereophonic sounds. The interface unit 160 may serve as a path allowing the mobile terminal 100 to interface with external devices. For example, the interface unit 160 may have one or more connection terminals for connecting to another device (for example, a headset, an external speaker, etc.), a port for communication with another near field (e.g., an IrDA port, a Bluetooth port, a wireless LAN port, etc.) or a power supply terminal for powering the mobile terminal 100. The interface unit 160 may be implemented in the form of a connection interface for housing an external card, such as a subscriber identification module (SIM), a user identity module (UIM) or a memory card for the storage of information. The second image acquisition device 121b is shown located on the back side of the terminal body and has an image capture direction which is essentially opposite to the image capture direction of the first device device. 121a image acquisition. If desired, the second image acquisition device 121a may alternatively be located at other locations or may be made movable to have an image capture direction different from that shown.
[0030] The second image acquisition device 121b may include a plurality of lenses arranged along a line. The plurality of lenses may also be arranged in a matrix configuration. Image acquisition devices can be referenced as "networked image acquisition devices". When the second image acquisition device 121b is implemented as a networked image acquisition device, images can be captured in various ways using the plurality of lenses and the images are better. quality. As can be seen in FIG. 1C, a flash 124 is shown adjacent to the second image acquisition device 121b. When an image of a subject is captured with the image acquisition device 121b, the flash 124 may illuminate the subject. As can be seen in FIG. 1B, the second audio output module 152b may be located on the body of the terminal. The second audio output module 152b may implement stereophonic sound functions in conjunction with the first audio output module 152a, and may also be used for the implementation of a speakerphone mode for telephone communications.
[0031] At least one antenna for wireless communication may be located on the body of the terminal. The antenna can be installed in the body of the terminal or formed by the housing. For example, an antenna that configures a portion of the broadcast receiving module 111 may be retractable into the body of the terminal. Alternatively, an antenna may be formed with a film attached to an inner surface of the back cover 103, or with a housing that includes a conductive material. A power supply unit 190 for supplying power to the mobile terminal 100 may include a battery 191 which is mounted in the body of the terminal or detachably coupled to an outer portion of the terminal body.
[0032] The battery 191 can receive power via a power source cable connected to the interface unit 160. In addition, the battery 191 can be recharged in a wireless manner using a wireless charger. A wireless load can be implemented by magnetic induction or electromagnetic resonance. The rear cover 103 is shown coupled to the rear housing 102 to shield the battery 191 to prevent detachment of the battery 191 and to protect the battery 191 against external impact or against foreign material. When the battery 191 is detachable from the terminal body, the rear housing 103 may be detachably coupled to the rear housing 102. An accessory for protecting an appearance or for assisting or extending the functions of the mobile terminal 100 may also be provided on the mobile terminal 100. An accessory given by way of example may be a cover or a case for covering or housing at least one surface of the mobile terminal 100. The cover or the case may cooperate with the display unit 151 for extending the functions of the mobile terminal 100. Another example of an accessory is a touch pen 25 for assisting or extending a touch input for a touch screen. The mobile terminal according to the present invention can easily place icons arranged in a dispersed manner on a plurality of home screen pages, by automatically sorting the icons, based on corresponding application attribute information. icons on the home screen pages.
[0033] A function for editing icons corresponding to applications and included on a home screen page of the mobile terminal will be explained in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In this memoir, the drawings will be explained in a clockwise direction. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be embodied in another form while remaining within the spirit and scope of the present invention. Fig. 2A is a flowchart illustrating a control method for editing icons included on a home screen page according to the present invention. Fig. 2B is a representative view illustrating a control method according to the present invention. Referring to Fig. 2A, a home screen page including icons corresponding to applications may be displayed on a touch screen of the mobile terminal according to the present invention (S210).
[0034] The icons corresponding to applications can be graphic objects, corresponding to applications, placed on the home screen page by a user so that associated functions can be immediately performed without an additional search process, among applications installed on the mobile terminal. That is, as shown in the first drawing of Figure 2B, the home screen page 10 may include a plurality of icons. The home screen page is a kind of work place comprising icons corresponding to applications selected by a user, which page can be composed of a plurality of pages. Only one page of the plurality of home screen pages may be displayed on the touch screen 151. That is, the home screen page may be displayed on the touch screen 151 on a single page. The single page can be selected based on a user input. Thus, if the display of another page different from said one page from the plurality of home screen pages is requested, the controller 180 may display the other requested page on the touch screen 151. In a display state of the home screen page, an edit request for icons included on the home screen page can be received (S220). The editing request may mean a request to place icons corresponding to applications included on the home screen page using a folder. In addition, the editing request may be various inputs applied to the mobile terminal in a display state of the home screen page. For example, the editing request may be an entry for executing an edit function for the icons using a menu button positioned on a mobile terminal framing portion. That is, as shown in a second drawing of Figure 2B, the editing request can be executed by displaying a menu using the menu button positioned on the framing part. of the mobile terminal, and by the touch sensitive selection of an editing function included in the options menu. Alternatively, the editing request may be an entry to apply a predefined type of touch (for example, a touch with drag to move a first icon included on the home screen page to a second icon) on the touch screen, in an exit state of the home screen page. Still alternatively, the editing request may be an input for pressing an external key mounted on a body of the mobile terminal. Once the icon editing request is received, the controller 180 may generate a folder comprising at least a portion of the applications using the application attribute information (S230).
[0035] The attribute information of the applications can be: a type of the applications (for example, a type of execution function, etc.) and / or a frequency of use of the applications and / or a time of use of the applications . That is, the controller 180 can control application attribute information corresponding to icons included on the home screen page and can generate a folder using applications having similar attribute information. More specifically, the controller 180 may control an execution function of an application corresponding to each icon included on the home screen page. The controller 180 can control applications having similar execution functions to include in the same folder. For example, an Internet search application and a map search application each having a search function may be included in the same folder. In another example, the controller 180 can generate a folder using applications that have been executed the last 3 days, among applications corresponding to icons included on the home screen page. The controller 180 may generate a folder including applications, which have been used most frequently in an order and with a predetermined number, among applications corresponding to icons included on the home screen page.
[0036] Once a file is generated based on application attribute information, an image of the generated folder, rather than icons corresponding to applications included in the generated folder, may be displayed on the page of the application. Home screen (S240).
[0037] 5 Once the folder is generated, an image of the folder can be displayed on the home screen page without additional input from the user. Icons for applications included in the generated folder can be removed from the Home screen. That is, as shown in a third drawing of FIG. 2B, the controller 180 can generate a single folder using game applications corresponding to a plurality of icons 1 and 2 included on the screen. Home screen page 10, i.e., a folder based on a similar execution function such as "game". The controller 180 can display on the home screen page 10 a folder image 3 corresponding to the generated folder. Once the file is generated, the controller 180 may display on the touch screen 151 an indicator indicating the generation of the file. In this circumstance, if a predefined touch input of the user is received corresponding to the displayed indicator, the controller 180 may display on the home screen page 10 an image of the generated folder rather than icons corresponding to applications included in the folder. This will be explained in more detail with reference to FIGS. 3A-3C. The mobile terminal according to the present invention can automatically place icons corresponding to applications and include them in the plurality of home screen pages in a dispersed manner, based on attribute information of the applications. Thus, a user can be provided with information on icons corresponding to applications included in the plurality of home screen pages, by means of an image of the generated folder, without displaying the screen pages. respective home. Since the folder is generated automatically, a user can easily place icons without additional input to edit the icons corresponding to non-uniformly understood applications in the plurality of home screen pages. For example, a first icon may be included on a first page of the plurality of home screen pages, and a second icon may be included on a second page of the plurality of home screen pages. If a user editing request for the home screen pages is received, the controller 180 may generate a single folder image including the first and second icons. The single folder image may be displayed on the first and second pages, or may be displayed on another page rather than on the first and second pages of the plurality of home screen pages. Once the single folder image is displayed on the home screen page, the first icon on the first page and the second icon on the second page may be deleted. A page, on which the single folder image is displayed, can be determined by a selection of a user or on a predefined basis. Thus, a user can easily place a plurality of icons on home screen pages using the mobile terminal according to the present invention. As mentioned above, an image of a folder generated based on application attribute information can be automatically displayed on the home screen page and its display can be determined based on a user input applied to an indicator indicating the generation of the file. This will be explained in more detail with reference to FIGS. 3A-3C. Fig. 3A is a view illustrating an embodiment in a case in which an input is applied in correspondence with the display of an indicator indicating the generation of a folder. Fig. 3B is a view illustrating an embodiment in a case in which an input is not applied in correspondence with the display of the indicator. Fig. 3C is a view illustrating an embodiment in a case where a directional input is applied corresponding to the display of the indicator. Referring to a first drawing of Fig. 3A, the home screen page 10 may include icons corresponding to a plurality of applications. In this circumstance, if a specific touch input (for example, a long touch input applied for more than a predetermined time) is applied to one of the icons corresponding to a plurality of applications, a graphic object 4a can be displayed at a position 4. If a touch input is applied to the graphic object 4a, the controller 180 may execute a function to edit the icons corresponding to the applications included on the home screen page 10. The controller 180 can generate a folder comprising at least a portion of the applications, using application attribute information corresponding to the icons included on the home screen page 10. As shown in a second drawing of the figure 3A, the controller 180 may display an indicator 10a, indicating the generation of the file, in a region of the home screen page 10. The indicator 10a may be displayed and include an image 6 of a folder, generated based on application attribute information, and icons 4, 5 corresponding to applications included in the folder. A predefined touch input can be applied to the displayed indicator 10a. The predefined touch input may mean a predefined type of touch input applied to a display region of the indicator 10a. That is, as shown in a third drawing of Fig. 3B, a touch input can be applied to the back image 6 included in the display region of the indicator 10a. In this circumstance, the controller 180 may display on the home screen page 10 the folder image 6 to which the touch input has been applied. The controller 180 can remove from the home screen page 10 the icons 4, 5 corresponding to the applications included in the folder image 6. Thus, as shown in a fourth drawing of FIG. 3A, the image of folder 6 indicating a folder including the applications corresponding to icons 4 and 5, rather than the icons 4 and 5 already displayed corresponding to the applications, can be displayed on the home screen page 10. The controller 180 can delete from the screen. 10a indicator the file image 6 displayed. Once a user input is applied to the displayed indicator indicating the generation of the folder, an image of the folder is displayed. Thus, if it is possible to control whether a user wishes to edit icons or not, the home screen page 25 may be set according to the user's intention. Even if the indicator has been displayed, an additional entry may not be applied to the indicator. That is, as shown in Fig. 3B, a request to edit icons corresponding to applications included on the home screen page 10 may be received using the icon 4 corresponding to an application 30 included on the home screen page 10. In this circumstance, as in FIG. 3A, the controller 180 can display an indicator 10a, indicating the generation of the folder, on the home screen page 10 according to the editing request.
[0038] In the display state of the indicator 10a, an input of a user may not be applied to the touch screen 151 for a predetermined time. More specifically, if no touch input is applied to a display region of the indicator 10a for a predetermined time, the controller 180 can stop the display of the indicator 10a, as shown in a third drawing of the Figure 3B. If no entry is received even in the display state of the flag, a user may not wish to display an image of the automatically generated folder. Thus, if no input is received for a predetermined time, the controller 180 stops the display of the indicator by reflecting a user's intention. The home screen page may include a plurality of pages. In this circumstance, an image of the generated file can be displayed on any page among the plurality of pages. The image of the generated folder can be displayed on a selected home screen page based on a user input.
[0039] Referring to FIG. 3C, two folders 6 and 7 may be generated based on application attribute information corresponding to a plurality of icons 4, 5, 7a, 7b, 7c and 8 included on the page. As shown in the first drawing of Figure 3C, a directional touch input may be applied to the first back image 6 of the indicator 10a. That is, if a touch-to-the-left input is applied to the folder image 6, the folder image 6 can be displayed on a page positioned to the left of a display page. the indicator 10a, as illustrated in a second drawing of Figure 3C. Also, as shown in a third drawing of Fig. 3C, a touch-to-the-right input may be applied to the back-up image 7 remaining in the indicator 10a after the back-up image 6 has been displayed. In this circumstance, the controller 180 may display the folder image 7 on a page positioned to the right of the display page of the indicator 10a, as shown in a fourth drawing of Figure 3C. Thus, a user can select an image display page of a generated folder by controlling a direction of a touch input at the time of displaying the image with the indicator. However, the present invention is not limited to this. That is, a specific page corresponding to a predefined touch input type 3028630 can be set, and then the folder image can be displayed on the specific page by application of the predefined type of touch input. Icons corresponding to applications included on the home screen page may be icons corresponding to applications selected by a user from applications installed in the mobile terminal. The home screen page may be provided with an icon corresponding to a specific application as well as icons corresponding to already selected applications, according to a request from the user. In this circumstance, an embodiment relating to the generation of the file will be explained with reference to FIG.
[0040] Fig. 4 is a view illustrating an embodiment relating to an icon editing function when an icon corresponding to a specific application is added to the home screen page. As illustrated in a first drawing of Fig. 4, if a user request is applied in a display state of the home screen page 10, a menu screen 11 showing icons corresponding to applications installed in the mobile terminal may be displayed on the touch screen 151. If a predefined touch (for example, a long touch held for more than a predetermined time) is applied to an icon 9 of a specific application included in the menu screen 11, the icon 9 of the specific application can be included on the home screen page 10. If the icon 9 of the specific application is added to the screen page d 10, the controller 180 can parse attribute information of the specific application. In addition, the controller 180 may compare application attribute information, corresponding to the icons included on the home screen page 10, to the attribute information of the specific application. Then, the controller 180 can generate a folder using the specific application and using applications having attribute information similar to the specific application. If a new folder is generated when the icon of the specific application is added to the home screen page 10, the controller 180 can display the generated folder 9a on the home screen page 10 like this is illustrated by a third drawing of Figure 4. In addition, the controller 180 can remove from the home screen page 10 icons corresponding to applications included in the generated folder 9a.
[0041] The controller 180 may display on the touch screen 151, a pop-up window 10b requesting a user to generate a folder including the specific application and applications having attribute information similar to the specific application. In this circumstance, the controller 180 may determine to generate the file or not, based on a user input applied to the popup window 10b. That is, if a user applies an entry to select the generation of the folder, the controller 180 may display an image of the generated folder on the home screen page. On the other hand, if a user applies an entry to limit the generation of the folder, the controller 10 can directly display the icon of the specific application on the home screen page. Thus, a user can automatically be provided with an icon editing function for a new application by simply adding the new application's icon to the home screen page. In addition, the user can determine to display, on the home screen, the icon of the new application or an image of a folder including the new application. According to another embodiment of the present invention, if an editing request for icons corresponding to applications included on the home screen page is received, the controller 180 may define at least one region of the home screen. Home screen page as a command region for editing icons. Then, the controller 180 can perform a function to edit the icons included on the home screen page, based on a touch input applied to the control region. More specifically, the controller 180 may display, in the region or regions, the icons and an image of a folder generated based on application attribute information. For example, the controller 180 may display a control screen, including the icons and the folder image, in the region (s). The controller 180 may display an image of the generated folder on the home screen page based on a touch input applied to the control screen. The controller 180 may perform an edit function relating to the icons and the folder image, based on a touch input applied to the control screen. Hereinafter, an embodiment for generating and rearranging a file will be explained in more detail with reference to Figs. 5A and 5B.
[0042] FIG. 5A is a view illustrating a method of displaying an image of a generated file using the control screen, and FIG. 5B is a view illustrating a method of reorganizing a file. already generated using the command screen.
[0043] Referring to Fig. 5A, in a display state of the home screen page, an icon editing function may be executed according to a request to edit the icons included on the screen page. Home. Once the icon editing request is received, the controller 180 may display a control screen 20 in at least one region of the touch screen 151. That is, as shown on In a second drawing of Figure 5A, the controller 180 may display the control screen 20 including the icons included on the home screen page, and including graphical objects indicating folders relating to attribute information of applications corresponding to the icons. More specifically, the control screen 20 may include a region 20a for displaying an image of a previously generated folder included on the home screen page, and displaying icons corresponding to applications included in the folder. already generated. The control screen 20 may further include a region 20b for displaying an image of a generated folder based on application attribute information corresponding to icons included on the home screen page, and to display icons corresponding to applications included in the generated folder. The control screen 20 may further include a region 20c to display other icons that have not been sorted based on application attribute information among icons included on the home screen page. . In the display state of the control screen 20, if a touch input is applied to an image of a folder generated based on application attribute information, the controller 180 may display the image of the folder on the home screen page 10. That is, as shown in a third drawing of Fig. 5A, a touch input can be applied to an image 21 of a generated folder based on an execution function (for example, game). In this circumstance, as illustrated in a fourth drawing of FIG. 5A, the controller 180 can stop the display of the control screen 20 and can display the image 21 of the file on the screen page of the screen. Home.
[0044] The controller 180 can not only display an image of a generated folder on the home screen page, but also rearrange a previously generated folder, using the control screen. That is, with reference to FIG. 5B, the region 20a of the control screen 20 may comprise an image 22 of a previously generated file and icons corresponding to applications included in the already generated file. . In this circumstance, a predefined type of touch input (e.g., a touch input applied to the other region 20b from the region 20a) can be applied to the image 22 of the already generated file. In this circumstance, the controller 180 can rearrange the already generated file. More specifically, once the predefined type of touch input is received, the controller 180 can parse attribute information of each application included in the already generated folder. Then, the controller 180 may search for a folder including applications having attribute information similar to the applications included in the already generated folder, among folders included in said other region 20b. If a folder comprising applications having attribute information similar to the applications included in the already generated folder has been searched, the controller 180 may include, in an image of the searched folder, icons corresponding to the applications included in the folder already generated. However, if a folder comprising applications having attribute information similar to the applications included in the already generated folder has not been searched, the controller 180 can move icons, corresponding to the applications included in the already generated folder, to region 20c to display other icons. As illustrated in a third drawing of Fig. 5B, if an input 25 to stop the display of the control screen 20 is applied, the controller 180 can control whether an edited state of icons processed on the display screen. command 20 must be reflected or not on the home screen page. Although not illustrated, if a user input to apply a changed state of a folder due to the generation and rearrangement of the folder is applied, the controller 180 can change a display state of the home screen page by reflecting the changed state of the folder on the home screen page. The mobile terminal according to the present invention can display a control screen for editing icons, corresponding to applications included on a home screen page, and a folder. The controller 180 can edit the icons and the folder included on the home screen page based on a touch input applied to the control screen. Thus, a user can be provided with information on generated folders when applications are automatically sorted based on application attribute information corresponding to the icons included on the home screen page. In addition, a user can easily perform an icon editing function on the home screen page by applying a touch input to the control screen. If an icon for a new application is added on the Home screen page 10, the control screen may reflect information about the new application. This will be explained below in more detail with reference to Figs. 6A and 6B. Fig. 6A is a view illustrating an embodiment for adding an icon, corresponding to a new application, to a folder generated based on application attribute information, using a command screen. . Fig. 6B is a view illustrating an embodiment for automatically editing icons added to the home screen page using the control screen. With reference to FIG. 6A, a specific function key 23 may be included in a region of the control screen 20. The specific function key 23 may be a function to add an icon corresponding to a new application that does not is not included on the home screen, among applications installed in the mobile terminal. If a touch input is applied to the specific function key 23, the controller 180 may change the control screen 20 so that an image of a folder including the icon added to the home screen page can be selected. That is, as shown in a second drawing of Fig. 6A, a check box for making a selection can be displayed on each file image included on the control screen 20. If a picture of specific folder is selected by a user, the controller 180 may display on the touch screen 151, a list screen 25 icons that can be added to the specific folder image, as shown in a third drawing of Figure 6A. The controller 180 may control a specific icon selected by the user 3028630 39 to be included in the specific folder image, based on a touch input applied to the list screen 25. Thus, like this is illustrated in a fourth drawing of Figure 6A, an image 24 of a game folder, included in the control screen 20, may include the specific icon. If a request to stop the display state of the control screen 20 is received, the controller 180 may change a display state of the home screen page by applying a changed state of the display screen. command 20 on the home screen page. If a new icon is added to the home screen page, the controller 180 may display edit information about the icon on the control screen. The editing information indicates that the icon has been automatically edited based on attribute information of an application corresponding to the new icon. Referring to a first drawing of Fig. 6B, a touch input may be applied to the specific function key 23 included on the control screen 20. In this circumstance, as shown in a second drawing of Fig. 6B , the controller 180 may display on the touch screen 151 the icon list screen 25 to be newly added to the home screen page. The controller 180 may control the touch screen 151 so that a check box for selecting each icon included on the list screen 25 may be displayed on each icon. If a specific icon is selected by a user, the controller 180 may parse attribute information of an application corresponding to the selected specific icon. The controller 180 may compare attribute information of the application, corresponding to the selected specific icon, to the attribute information of each generated folder on the control screen 20 based on attribute information. applications. If there is a folder including applications having application-like attribute information corresponding to an icon selected on the list screen 25, the controller 180 may control the selected icon for inclusion in an image. of the folder included on the control screen 20. If there is no folder including applications having attribute information similar to an application corresponding to the selected icon, the controller 180 can control the selected icon. to include it in the region 20c on the control screen 2028630, the region 20c for displaying icons that have not been sorted based on application attribute information. As illustrated in a second drawing of Fig. 6B, if icons corresponding to music and photography applications are selected by a user, the controller 180 may analyze attribute information of the music and photography applications ( for example, an execution function). In a case in which a plurality of icons is selected, the controller 180 may compare application attribute information corresponding to the plurality of icons.
[0045] If applications corresponding to the plurality of icons have different attribute information from each other, each icon of the plurality of icons may be processed independently, i.e., each icon of the plurality of icons Icons may be separately included in an image of a folder corresponding to attribute information of an application. However, as illustrated in FIG. 6B, since the music and photography applications have similar attribute information with respect to their content information, the controller 180 can generate a folder using the corresponding icons. music and photography applications. Thus, as illustrated in a third drawing of Fig. 6B, an image of a folder including icons corresponding to music and photography applications, i.e., a content folder 26, may be included on the control screen 20. A user can add icons, corresponding to new applications, to the home screen page using the control screen, and can automatically perform an editing function relating to the icons corresponding to the new applications. As mentioned above, application attribute information may be sorted according to a plurality of attribute information, i.e., an application execution function, a frequency of use of applications, etc. The controller 180 may edit icons included on the home screen page based on predefined attribute information among the plurality of attribute information. If a user wishes to edit the icons based on other attribute information different from the predefined attribute information, the icons may be edited based on said other attribute information at 3028630. ordered. This will be explained in greater detail with reference to Fig. 7. Fig. 7 is a view illustrating an embodiment for providing a generated file based on different attribute attribute information predefined to the using the control screen in a case in which application attribute information can be sorted according to a plurality of attribute information. Referring to FIG. 7, the control screen 20 may comprise an image of a previously generated file, included on the home screen page, and an image of a file generated on the basis of information application attribute. The image of the generated folder may include icons sorted from each other based on predefined attribute information (e.g., functions corresponding to applications). The control screen 20 may include a specific function key 29. The specific function key 29 may be formed to edit icons included on the home screen page based on attribute information other than predefined attribute information, in a case where there are other attribute information that can be sorted, as well as based on the predefined attribute information.
[0046] As illustrated in a first drawing of Fig. 7, a touch input may be applied to the specific function key 29. In this circumstance, the controller 180 may edit icons included on the home screen page, based on attribute information different from the predefined attribute information, from application attribute information corresponding to the icons. More specifically, if the predefined attribute information is application dependent, the controller 180 may re-edit icons included on the home screen page, based on attribute information, i.e. say a moment of use of the applications. The controller 180 may generate a new folder based on the different attribute information and may change the control screen 20 to 30 reflecting the new folder. Thus, as illustrated in a second drawing of FIG. 7, not only is an image of a folder generated based on predefined attribute information, but also an image 31 of a file generated on the basis of Different attribute information (a time of use of applications) may be displayed on the control screen 20. If a user input is applied to the image 31 of the generated folder on the basis of the different attribute information, the controller 180 may display the image of the folder 31 and icons 5 included in the folder image 31 on the control screen 20, as shown in a third drawing of FIG. , the controller 180 may display the image of the generated folder 31 based on the different attribute information on the home screen page, based on an additional touch input applied to the control screen 20.
[0047] A user may define application attribute information differently, a basis for editing icons, using the control screen. That is, a user can easily edit icons included on the home screen page, based on various databases (a plurality of sorted attribute information of applications).
[0048] The control screen may display information about a display state of the home screen page (for example, the number of applications included on the home screen page, if an icon corresponding to a real-time installed application has been included on the home screen, etc.). The control screen may display position information on each icon corresponding to an application and included on the home screen page, i.e. information indicating a page where each icon is positioned among a plurality of home screen pages. The control screen may also display an image of an arbitrarily generated folder based on a folder image displayed on the home screen page or on the application attribute information base. The control screen may provide an editing function by moving icons included in each folder image. This will be explained below in more detail with reference to Figs. 8A-8C. With reference to FIG. 8A, a new application can be installed on a mobile terminal. When the new application is installed on the mobile terminal, an icon corresponding to the new application may be included on the home screen page. If the control screen 20 is displayed on the touch screen 151, the icon corresponding to the new application can be included on the home screen page and can be displayed on the control screen 20.
[0049] That is, as illustrated in a first drawing of Fig. 8, an icon 32 corresponding to the new application may be displayed on the control screen 20. The controller 180 may analyze information of attribute of the new application, and may control an icon corresponding to the new application to be included in an image of a folder corresponding to the attribute information of the new application. The controller 180 can control the touch screen 151 so that the icon 32 corresponding to the new application can be displayed in a semi-transparent state until the new application is fully installed.
[0050] Then, if the new application is fully installed, the controller 180 can control the touch screen 151 so that the icon 32 corresponding to the new application can be displayed with a predefined degree of transparency, as illustrated on a second one. drawing of Figure 8A. Thus, if an icon corresponding to a new application being installed is included on the home screen page, an editing function may be automatically executed on the control screen, based on information attribute of the newly installed application. The control screen may display information about an installed state of the new application being installed, by controlling a degree of transparency of the icon corresponding to the new application being installed. If the home screen page is composed of a plurality of pages, position information, indicating a page on which each icon is positioned among the plurality of pages, can be displayed on said each icon and each file image. included on the control screen. That is, as illustrated in a first drawing of Fig. 8B, positional information relating to the plurality of pages may be displayed on each icon included on the home screen page. For example, position information 33a, which indicates that a specific icon 33 is positioned on a third page of the plurality of pages, may be displayed on the specific icon 33.
[0051] If a touch input is applied to the position information 33a as illustrated in a second drawing of Fig. 8B, a window 33b for changing the position information 33a of the specific icon 33 can be displayed on the control screen. As illustrated in a third drawing of Fig. 3028630 44 8B. For example, if a user applies an entry to change the position information 33a, the position information 33a of the specific icon 33 can be moved from a third page to a second page. Thus, if the display state of the control screen 20 is stopped, a position of the specific icon 33 on the home screen page can be moved from the third page to the second page. A user can easily change a display state of the home screen page by changing an icon position using the control screen. The controller may move icons included in an image of a first folder included in the control screen to an image of a second folder, based on a touch input. That is, as illustrated in a first drawing of FIG. 8C, the control screen 20 may comprise an image 34 of an already generated file (Messenger folder), and an image of a Folder (Internet Folder) generated based on application attribute information. A touch input may be applied to the picture 34 of the Messenger folder, from a specific icon 35a included in the picture 35 of the Internet folder. In this circumstance, as illustrated in a second drawing of Figure 8C, the controller 180 can move the specific icon 35a so that the specific icon 35a can be included in the picture 34 of the Messenger folder. Then, the controller 180 may receive a confirmation from the user to apply a modified state of the control screen 20 to the home screen page. If a user wishes to apply the changed state of the control screen 20 to the home screen page, the controller 180 can change a display state of the home screen page based on the state edit. As a result, as illustrated in a fourth drawing of FIG. 8C, the image 34 of the Messenger folder including the specific icon 35a can be displayed on the home screen page. A user can freely move an icon between folder images with add or delete, and so on. from the icon to the folder images or folder images included on the home screen page using the control screen. Although not illustrated, two or more folder images included in the control screen may be integrated with each other and a new folder may be generated using icons that have not been sorted on the application attribute information base.
[0052] The mobile terminal and its control method according to the present invention can have the following advantages. Since a plurality of icons included on a home screen page are generated as folders based on application attribute information corresponding to the icons, a user may be provided with corresponding icons. applications, the icons being automatically sorted from each other by the folders generated based on similar attribute information. Therefore, a user can easily sort the icons included on the home screen page in a dispersed manner without having to make an additional entry to sort the plurality of icons.
