Hereinafter, a scan image display method according to the first and second embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 6. FIG. FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method of displaying a scanned image according to the first embodiment of the present invention. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method of displaying a scanned image according to a second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a view illustrating a screen for providing a scan UI window in which a scan image according to the first embodiment of the present invention is displayed. 6 is a view illustrating a screen for acquiring a scan image according to the second embodiment of the present invention and providing a scan UI window for displaying a scan image and a memory guide bar.

Referring to FIG. 3, the controller 110 of the display device 100 executes a scanner application (S310). The scanner application execution program may be stored in the storage unit 130, and a scan UI window in which a scanned image is displayed may be displayed according to the execution of the scanner application.

Next, the input device 200 generates the scan start request signal through the input of the scanner function selection button 241 of the function input unit 240 of the input device 200, Lt; / RTI > Accordingly, the transmitted scan start request signal is received through the communication interface unit 150 of the display device 100 (S320).

In response to the scan start request signal, the input device 200 enters a scan mode and starts a scan for acquiring a scan image from the object to be scanned (S330).

Meanwhile, although it has been described that the scan UI window is displayed when the scanner application is executed in step S310, the step S310 may be omitted, and a scan UI window may be displayed upon receipt of the scan start request signal in step S320 .

When the scan is started according to the entry of the scan mode, a scan image 510 acquired from the input device 200 and displayed on the scan UI window 500 is displayed as shown in FIG. 2B, a scan box 520 corresponding to an actual scan area 221 located on the back surface of the input device 200 is displayed on the scan UI window 500 (refer to FIG. 2B) S340).

The scan image 510 is an image obtained through the scanning unit 220 while the input device 200 moves and the scan image 510 is transmitted to the position detector 230 of the input device 200. [ And is displayed on the scan UI window 500. The scan UI window 500 displays the position data.

Meanwhile, a memory guide bar 530 for displaying the remaining amount of the storage unit 260 of the input device 200 is displayed in the scan UI window 500. The memory guide bar 530 may display the remaining memory amount excluding the capacity of the scan image with respect to the total capacity of the input device 200. As the number of scanned images acquired through the scanning unit 220 of the input device 200 increases, the remaining amount of the storage unit 260 decreases.

The control unit 110 measures the moving speed of the information about the positional movement of the input device 200 transmitted from the input device 200 at step S350 and determines the moving speed of the input device 200 And compares the threshold speed previously stored in the storage unit 130 (S360). Here, the moving speed means the moving speed of the input device 200, and may be the moving speed of the scan box 520 corresponding to the movement of the input device 200.

As a result of the comparison, if the movement speed is smaller than the threshold speed, the scan operation is continued without changing the scan box 520.

If the moving speed is greater than the threshold speed, the display of the scan box 520 is changed (S370). The change of the display of the scan box 520 may be performed by changing the color of the outline of the scan box 520 or changing the shape of the outline of the scan box 520.

For example, if the color of the outline of the scan box 520 displayed on the scan UI window 500 is green when the movement speed is below the critical speed, if the movement speed is equal to or greater than the threshold speed, The color of the outline of the scan box 520 displayed in the window 500 may be changed from green to red.

This is to prevent the scan image from being properly acquired from the scan object when the user moves excessively in the input device 200. [ Accordingly, the user senses the change of the color of the outline of the scan box 520 and lowers the moving speed of the input device 200 below the critical speed, do.

Meanwhile, a predetermined warning message (not shown) may be displayed on the scan UI window 500 while the color or shape of the outline of the scan box 520 is changed and displayed, and a predetermined sound is output, It is possible to inform the user that the moving speed of the moving object 200 is equal to or higher than the threshold speed.

4 and 6, the memory guide bar 530 displayed in the scan UI window 500 will be described in more detail.

Referring to FIG. 4, after the scan mode is started (S410), the input device 200 displays the first position (X1, Y1) on the scan target object 10, (Step S420) while moving through the first path (Path A) from the second position (X2, Y2) to the second position (X2, Y2). The input device 200 moves through the second path Path B from the second position X2 and Y2 on the scan object 10 to the third position X3 and Y3, (S430).

It is determined whether there is an overlapping area between the first scan image obtained while moving on the first path (Path A) and the second scan image obtained while moving on the second path (Path B) (S440 6A and 6B, if the overlapped area is present, the capacity excluding the overlapping area is calculated as the capacity of the entire scan image in the sum of the capacity of the first scan image and the capacity of the second scan image, The remaining capacity of the storage unit 260 of the input device 200 can be displayed by displaying the capacity of the total scanned image calculated on the memory guide bar 530 with respect to the total capacity of the input device 200, Can be displayed.

Hereinafter, a scan image display method according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 to 12. FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a method of displaying a scan image according to a third embodiment of the present invention. 8 to 12 are views showing a screen for providing a scan UI window for displaying a preview scan area for acquiring a scan image according to the third embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 7, the controller 110 of the display device 100 executes a scanner application (S710). The scanner application execution program may be stored in the storage unit 130, and a scan UI window is displayed according to the execution of the scanner application (S720).

Next, the controller 110 receives a scan area designation signal designating a scan area for the object to be scanned from the input device 200 (S730). A preview scan area corresponding to the received scan area designation signal is displayed in the scan UI window (S740).

Here, the scan area designation signal may be generated through a click signal for each of a plurality of points of the scan object. For example, when the input device 200 generates a signal to click any one of the left and right buttons of the function input unit 240 while moving to the four points 540a to 540d of the object to be scanned, 8 (a), four points 540a-d of the object to be scanned are displayed in the scan UI window 500. When the reception of the scan area designation signal is completed, A preview scan area 541 in which four points 540a to 540d corresponding to the scan area designation signal are connected to the scan UI window 500 is displayed.

The scan area designation signal may be generated through a click signal and a drag signal for a specific point of the scan object. For example, the input device 200 generates a signal to click one of the left and right buttons of the function input unit 240 at a specific point 550a of the object to be scanned, The drag operation indicator 550b is displayed on the scan UI window 500 from the specific point 550a of the object to be scanned and the specific point 550a as shown in (a) of FIG. 9 ), And when the reception of the scan area designation signal is completed, the drag operation indicator 550b (550b) corresponding to the scan area designation signal is displayed in the scan UI window 500 as shown in FIG. 9 (b) The preview scan area 551 corresponding to the preview area 551 is displayed.

10, the preview scan area 551 and the scan box 520 are displayed on one side of the scan UI window 500 in a scan guide map 560 reduced in a predetermined ratio . A reduced scan box 521 for grasping the relative position of the scan box 520 within the preview scan area 551 may be displayed within the scan guide map 560. Accordingly, the user can easily determine at which position the scan box 520 is positioned within the preview scan area 551. More specifically, if the preview scan area 551 is designated to be larger than the size of the scan UI window 500, the preview scan area 551 may be more easily accessed through the scan guide map 560, The relative position can be grasped.

In operation S760, a scan start request signal is received from the input device 200, and a scan operation is performed to acquire a scan image from the scan object in response to the scan start request signal in operation S760.

The control unit 110 of the display device 100 determines whether the scan box 520 corresponding to the position of the input device 200 is positioned within the preview scan area 551, (S770). ≪ / RTI >

If it is determined in step S770 that the scan box 520 is located within the preview scan area 551, the scan image for the scan object corresponding to the preview scan area 551 is acquired, The scan image is displayed on the scan UI window 500 (S780).

If it is determined in step S770 that the scan box 520 is not positioned within the preview scan area 551, a notification message to the user that the scan box 520 is outside the preview scan area 551 (S790). For example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the position 520b of the scan box is moved to an area other than the preview scan area 551, a notification message is output to the user. The output of the notification message may be performed in various manners. The display of the scan box may be changed or a warning message may be displayed. In addition, a specific sound may be output, or a signal related to a specific vibration may be transmitted to the input device 200, and the input device 200 may vibrate to output a notification message to the user.

12, when a part of the scan box 520b is positioned outside the preview scan area 551, a scan for a scan object corresponding to a part of the scan box 520b The image may not be acquired.

That is, the scan operation may not be performed on a part of the scan box 520b corresponding to the outside of the preview scan area 551.

Hereinafter, a method of displaying a scanned image or an edited image according to a fourth exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 13 to 16. FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing a method for displaying a scanned image or an edited image according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. 14 is a diagram showing a state of an input device when a lift-off signal is generated according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention.

The display device 200 receives the lift-off signal (S1340). As shown in FIG. 14 (a), the input device 200 acquires a scan image, that is, performs a scan operation on the object 10 to be scanned. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 14 (b), when the input device 200 is spaced from the scan object 10 by a predetermined distance, the lift-off signal is generated. Here, if the predetermined distance is 1 mm or more, the lift-off signal may be generated.

The control unit 110 of the display device 100 compares the duration of the received lift off signal with a previously stored threshold time in step S1350 and if the duration of the lift off signal exceeds the predetermined threshold time If it is determined that the scan mode is small, the scan UI window 500 displayed when the scan operation is performed is displayed as shown in FIG. 15 (S1380). Thereafter, the acquired scan image 510 and the scan box 520 are displayed on the scan UI window 500 according to the execution of the scan operation (S1390).

As a result of the comparison, if the duration of the lift-off signal is greater than the predetermined threshold time by comparing the duration of the received lift-off signal with a predetermined threshold time, An edit UI window 600 including an edit image 610 for editing a scan image and an edit setting window 620 including a plurality of functions for editing the edit image is displayed.

Here, the edited image refers to a scan image finally obtained for editing from the object to be scanned.

 The editing mode is switched from the scan mode to the edit mode and the edit image 600 displayed in the edit UI window 600 is displayed on one of the plurality of functions displayed in the edit setting window 620 (S1370).

Hereinafter, a method of displaying a scan image according to a status change signal of an input device according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 17 to 19.
