Hereinafter, a method of controlling a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

9 is a flowchart illustrating a method of controlling a mobile terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

First, the controller 212 determines whether the mobile terminal 200 is mounted on the vehicle (S11). For example, when the control unit 212 is connected to an ECU (electronic control unit) of the vehicle through the wired or wireless communication network with the vehicle, the control unit 212 determines that the vehicle is mounted on the vehicle (e.g., a dashboard of the vehicle).

The control unit 212 may display the navigation data (map data) installed in the mobile terminal 200 on the display unit 201 when the mobile terminal 200 is mounted on the vehicle. When the mobile terminal 200 is mounted on the vehicle, the controller 212 forms a communication network with a plurality of mobile communication terminals 100A, 100B, 100C and 100D in the vehicle.

When the mobile terminal 200 is mounted on the vehicle, the controller 212 detects user preference information related to a place from a plurality of mobile communication terminals 100A, 100B, 100C and 100D in the vehicle (S12) .

The predetermined radius may be changed by the user. The recommended POI information detected from the server may be POI information recommended by an SNS (Social Networking Service) (for example, Facebook, KakaoTalk, Twitter, YouTube, etc.) or a portal site.

The control unit 212 detects representative POI information based on the user preference information related to the place and the recommended POI information (S14). For example, the control unit 212 detects POI information corresponding to the user preference information from the recommended POI information as the representative POI information. The representative POI information may include at least one POI.

The control unit 212 may detect the POI information corresponding to the user preference information from the recommended POI information and arrange the detected POI information according to the weight applied to the user preference information. For example, the control unit 212 detects POI information corresponding to the user preference information from among the recommended POI information, and arranges the detected POI information in a descending order of the weights applied to the user's preference information You may.

The control unit 212 displays the representative POI information on the display unit 201 and may set one of the representative POI information as a destination according to a user's request (S15). The control unit 212 may display the representative POI information on the display unit 201 when the vehicle is stopped.
