This may be useful for editing an image displayed on the output unit 151.

In response to the output unit 151 (touch screen) and the touch pad 135 being touched together within a predetermined time range, one function of the terminal may be executed. When touched together, the user may clamp the terminal body using the thumb and index finger. For example, the function may include activation or deactivation of the output unit 151 or the touch pad 135.

The proximity sensor 141 described with reference to FIG. 1 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 4.

4 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a proximity depth of a proximity sensor.

As shown in FIG. 4, when a pointer such as a user's finger or pen approaches the touch screen, the proximity sensor 141 disposed in or near the touch screen detects this and outputs a proximity signal.

The proximity sensor 141 may be configured to output different proximity signals according to a distance between the proximity touched pointer and the touch screen (hereinafter, referred to as “proximity depth”).

In FIG. 4, for example, a cross section of a touch screen on which three proximity sensors capable of sensing three proximity depths is disposed is illustrated. Of course, proximity sensors that detect less than three or more than four proximity depths are also possible.

Specifically, when the pointer is completely in contact with the touch screen (d ₀ ), it is recognized as a touch touch. When the pointer is positioned below the distance d ₁ on the touch screen, the pointer is recognized as a proximity touch of a first proximity depth. When the pointer is spaced apart from the distance d ₁ or more and less than d ₂ on the touch screen, the pointer is recognized as a proximity touch of a second proximity depth. When the pointer is spaced apart from the distance d ₂ or more and less than d ₃ on the touch screen, the pointer is recognized as a proximity touch of a third proximity depth. When the pointer is positioned at a distance of more than d ₃ from the touch screen, the proximity touch is recognized as released.

Accordingly, the controller 180 may recognize the proximity touch as various input signals according to the proximity depth and the proximity position of the pointer, and perform various operation control according to the various input signals.

FIG. 5 is a conceptual view illustrating a control method for a touch operation when a pair of output units 155 and 156 overlap.

The terminal disclosed in this drawing is a folder-type terminal in which a folder unit is foldable with respect to a main body. The first output unit 155 mounted on the folder unit may be a light transmissive type or a transparent type such as a TOLED, but the second output unit 156 mounted on the main body may have a form in which light does not transmit, such as an LCD. The first and second output units 155 and 156 may be configured as touch screens capable of touch input, respectively.

For example, when a touch (contact touch or proximity-touch) with respect to the first output unit or the TOLED 155 is detected, the controller 180 according to the type of touch and the touch time. At least one image from the list of images displayed on the TOLED 155 may be selected or run.

Hereinafter, a touch, long touch, long touch & drag (drag) is applied to a method in which information displayed on another output unit or the LCD 156 is controlled when a touch on the TOLED 155 exposed to the outside in an overlapped form is controlled. The description is based on the input method separated by).

In the overlapped state (mobile terminal is closed), the TOLED 155 is disposed to overlap the lower side of the LCD 156. In this state, when a touch different from a touch for controlling the image displayed on the TOLED 155 is detected, for example, a long touch (for example, a touch lasting more than 2 seconds to 3 seconds), the controller 180 ) Causes at least one image of the image list displayed on the LCD 156 to be selected according to the sensed touch input. The result of the execution of the selected image is displayed on the TOLED 155.

The long touch can also be used to selectively move a desired one of the objects displayed on the LCD 156 to the TOLED 155 (without its execution operation). That is, the user may select one area of the TOLED 155 corresponding to the specific object of the LCD 156. In the long touch, the controller 180 moves the object to the TOLED 155 for display. The object displayed on the TOLED 155 may also be displayed on the LCD 156 according to a predetermined touch input for the TOLED 155, for example, flicking or swirling. In this figure, the menu No. 2 displayed on the LCD 156 is moved to the TOLED 155 and illustrated.

If another input, for example, a drag, is additionally detected along with the long touch, the controller 180 is a function related to the image selected by the long touch. Can be displayed on. In this figure, the case where the preview (male photograph) with respect to the 2nd menu (image file) is performed is illustrated.

When the preview screen is output and the drag is made to the TOLED 155 to another image while maintaining the long touch, the controller 180 controls the selection cursor (or selection bar) of the LCD 156. The selected cursor is displayed on the preview screen (woman photo). After that, when the touch (long touch and drag) is finished, the controller 180 displays the first image selected by the long touch.

The touch operation (long touch and drag) may be performed when a slide (movement of the proximity touch corresponding to the drag) is detected together with the long proximity touch (the proximity touch lasting at least 2 seconds to 3 seconds) for the TOLED 155. The same applies to.

If a touch operation other than those mentioned above is detected, the controller 180 may operate in the same manner as a general touch control method.

The control method for the touch operation in the overlapped form may be applied to a terminal having a single display. In addition, the present invention can be applied to a terminal different from a folder type having a dual display.

FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating a process of connecting an image being played to another device in a method of reproducing image data according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 15 and FIG. 1, a user may want to play back image data while playing the video data on a device such as an IPTV 1510 or a notebook 1520. The notebook 1520 is provided with a program that can use the IPTV. When the user stops playing the image data, the controller 180 stores information related to the stopped image data in the memory 160. The user transmits information related to the interrupted image data existing in the memory 160 of the mobile terminal 1500 to the IPTV 1510 or the notebook 1520 using Bluetooth, infrared communication, or USB. The IPTV 1510 or the notebook 1520 searches for the same data as the interrupted image data by using the received information related to the interrupted image data. As a result of the search, if the same data exists, the IPTV 1510 or the notebook 1520 uses the information related to the interrupted image data and then the portion after the interrupted image data in the mobile terminal 1500 is interrupted. Will play.

For example, if the user stops after 40 minutes of playing the video data having a total playback time of 1 hour, the controller 180 stops the video data name, the 40 minutes of the playback time, the total playback time of 1 hour, and the interruption. The date, time, and the like are stored in the memory 160. The user transmits the information stored in the memory 160 to the IPTV 1510 or the notebook 1520 using Bluetooth, infrared communication, or USB. The IPTV 1510 or the notebook 1520 searches for the same data as the interrupted image data by using the received information. If the same data exists as a result of the search, the IPTV 1510 or the notebook 1520 recognizes 40 minutes of the playback time already seen among the information, and plays only the image after 40 minutes of the total playback time.

The above process can be reversed. That is, the image data is stopped on the IPTV 1510 or the notebook 1520, and the information related to the image data stopped on the IPTV 1510 or the notebook 1520 is transmitted to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal can reproduce the portion after the interrupted image data by using the information related to the image data.

Accordingly, there is a convenience that the user can continue the image viewed on the mobile terminal on a device such as an IPTV or a laptop.
