1D is a view showing an example of a watch-type mobile terminal 200 in which a SIM is built in or attached to a main body according to an embodiment of the present invention.

1D, a watch-type mobile terminal 200 includes a main body 201 having a display portion 251 and a band 202 connected to the main body 201 and configured to be worn on the wrist. In general, mobile terminal 200 may include features of mobile terminal 100 of Figures 1A-1C or similar features.

The main body 201 includes a case that forms an appearance. As shown, the case may include a first case 201a and a second case 201b that provide an internal space for accommodating various electronic components. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a single case may be configured to provide the internal space, so that a mobile terminal 200 of a unibody may be realized.

The watch-type mobile terminal 200 is configured to enable wireless communication, and the main body 301 may be provided with an antenna for the wireless communication. On the other hand, the antenna can expand its performance by using a case. For example, a case comprising a conductive material may be configured to electrically connect with the antenna to extend the ground or radiating area.

A display unit 251 may be disposed on the front surface of the main body 201 to output information and a touch sensor may be provided on the display unit 251 to implement the touch screen. The window 251a of the display unit 251 may be mounted on the first case 201a to form a front surface of the terminal body together with the first case 201a.

The main body 201 may include an audio output unit 252, a camera 221, a microphone 222, a user input unit 223, and the like. When the display unit 251 is implemented as a touch screen, the display unit 251 may function as a user input unit 223, so that the main body 201 may not have a separate key.

The band 202 is worn on the wrist so as to surround the wrist, and may be formed of a flexible material for easy wearing. As an example, the band 202 may be formed of leather, rubber, silicone, synthetic resin, or the like. In addition, the band 202 may be detachably attached to the main body 201, and may be configured to be replaceable by various types of bands according to the user's preference.

On the other hand, the band 202 can be used to extend the performance of the antenna. For example, the band may include a ground extension (not shown) that is electrically connected to the antenna and extends the ground region.

The band 202 may be provided with a fastener 202a. The fastener 202a may be embodied by a buckle, a snap-fit hook structure, or a velcro (trademark), and may include a stretchable section or material . In this drawing, an example in which the fastener 202a is embodied as a buckle is shown.

Meanwhile, the watch-type terminal 200 according to the present invention may have a built-in SIM or may be connected to a SIM device through an interface unit. In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, the mobile terminal 100 in which the SIM is embedded and the watch-type terminal 200 in which the SIM is embedded can be connected so as to allow wireless communication.

As shown in FIG. 2, the mobile terminal 100 and / or the watch type terminal 200 may include different SIM cards, respectively, and may exchange information with each other, for example, through a wireless communication module. At least a part of the data processed in the mobile terminal 100 can be transmitted to the watch-type terminal 200 and at least a part of the data processed in the watch-type terminal 200 can also be transmitted to the mobile terminal 100 have. Accordingly, the user may use the data processed by the mobile terminal 100 in the watch-type terminal 200, or may use the data processed in the watch-type terminal 200 through the mobile terminal 100.

In the present invention, while the watch-type mobile terminal 200 capable of receiving call signals and messages and the mobile terminal 100 are connected to each other in a wireless communication manner, Or another device, when a situation such as a low battery, a push alarm, a call signal, or a message occurs, the user may be provided with a method of providing information related to a situation occurring while the immersion feeling of the screen being viewed is increased do.

Hereinafter, FIG. 3 is a representative flowchart for explaining an operation realized when an event occurs in a mobile terminal related to the present invention.

First, a first screen may be displayed on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100. Here, there is no limitation on the type of the first screen. For example, the first screen may be any one of a web browser, a schedule management, a video playback, a call, a game, a music, a document work, a message, a finance, an e-book, .

When an event occurs in at least one application installed in the mobile terminal 100 in the state that the first screen is displayed, the controller may output a notification icon indicating the occurrence of the event on the first screen displayed (S20).

To this end, the control unit may detect that an event has occurred in at least one application installed in the mobile terminal 100. [ Here, an application is a concept including a widget, a home launcher, and the like, and means any type of program that can be run on the terminal. Accordingly, the application may be a program that performs a function of a web browser, a moving image playback, a message transmission / reception, a schedule management, and an application update. In addition, the occurrence of an event can be detected, for example, when a call signal is received, when there is a missed call, when there is an application to be updated, when a message arrives, A power off, a display awake key, an alarm, a missed notification, and the like.

As another example, when specific information is received through the wireless communication unit of the terminal, an event occurs in an application related to the specific information, and the control unit senses the event. Or when there is an item entered by the user on the schedule management, when the date corresponds to the item, the event occurs in the schedule management application.

Here, the size and display position of the notification icon may vary depending on the operation state of the first screen and / or the type of the event. For example, if the first screen is a moving picture, the notification icon may be smaller than a predetermined size or may be displayed only on the upper / lower / edge sides of the display unit 100. [

Next, in response to the output of the notification icon or in response to the occurrence of an event in the mobile terminal, the controller determines whether or not a second terminal wirelessly connected to the mobile terminal 100, for example, the watch-type terminal 200 is worn (S30).

The determination as to whether or not the watch-type terminal 200 is worn can be performed by transmitting a radio signal to the watch-type terminal 200 through the wireless communication unit 110 of the mobile terminal 100, And receiving and analyzing the transmitted response signal. Type terminal 200 can be worn by the mobile terminal 100 by implementing a wireless signal indicating that the watch is worn when the watch-type terminal 200 is worn by the mobile terminal 100 at predetermined intervals Or not.

If it is determined that the watch type terminal 200 is worn, the controller may transfer either the displayed first screen or the second screen corresponding to the notification icon to the watch type terminal 200 S40).

Specifically, when it is determined that the watch-type terminal 200 is worn, the controller can determine whether to move the first screen or the second screen according to the type of the first screen and the type of the generated event. For example, when the first screen is a moving picture and the call signal is received as an event, a notification icon indicating that the call signal has been received may be transferred to the watch type terminal 200 have. At this time, however, if the call signal is received from the important counterpart terminal or the playback of the moving picture screen is temporarily suspended, the second screen corresponding to the notification icon is not transferred to the watch type terminal 200 May not be transferred.

In addition, even when it is determined that the connected watch-type terminal 200 is in a non-attaching state, the controller may determine that it is difficult for the user to confirm the notification icon and restrict the transfer of the first screen and the second screen. In this case, the control unit may output the notification icon on the first screen, but may adjust the exposure time, size, and position of the notification icon differently from before. At the same time, an indicator indicating that the watch-type terminal 200 is in a non-attachment state during the output of the notification icon may be displayed in a predetermined area of the display unit 151.

Fig. 4 is a conceptual diagram for explaining the operation related to Fig.

4 shows an example in which an event indicating that the battery of the mobile terminal 100 is insufficient occurs while the moving picture playback screen 401a is output through the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100. [ In this case, a notification icon 410 of a battery image indicating that the battery is insufficient may be output to one area of the display unit 151. [ In response to the notification icon 410 indicating that the battery is low, playback of the moving picture screen may be temporarily stopped (401b). Alternatively, although not shown, the resolution of the movie picture being reproduced may be reduced or switched to the monochrome mode in order to minimize the battery reduction.

Next, the control unit determines whether the connected watch-type terminal 200 is worn on the user's wrist in response to the notification icon 410 indicating that the battery is low. For this, the watch-type terminal 200 can detect whether the terminal is worn by using various sensors provided therein, and the mobile terminal 100 can detect whether the terminal is worn / By receiving a signal, it is possible to recognize whether or not the watch-type terminal 200 is worn.

When the watch-type terminal 200 is worn on the user's wrist and the battery of the watch-type terminal 200 is sufficient to reproduce the moving image, the watch-type terminal 200 can view the first screen again (402). That is, the first screen is naturally transferred from the mobile terminal 100 to the watch-type terminal 200 even if the user does not perform any operation. At this time, the notification icon 410 informing of the battery shortage can be continuously held on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the watch-type terminal 200 is not in use, it is determined that the user does not use the watch-type terminal 200 even if the battery of the mobile terminal 100 is insufficient, Do not. As described above, according to the present invention, when an event occurs while watching a content, the event notification or the currently viewed content is naturally transferred to the other connected terminal according to the current situation, thereby improving the immersion feeling of the user and providing information.

5A shows an example of processing when a call signal is received from a watch-type terminal 200 when the watch-type terminal 200 having a built-in SIM displays the moving picture screen 501. FIG.

5A, when a call signal is received while the moving picture screen 501 is being reproduced on the display unit 251, an indicator 510 indicating that a call signal has been received is output while covering at least a part of the moving picture screen 501 . At this time, the indicator 510 may include sub-icons for performing a response or rejection of a call signal, and may perform a response or a rejection of a call signal through touch input to one of the sub-icons.

When the indicator 510 indicating that the call signal has been received is received, the controller transmits and receives a radio signal to the connected mobile terminal 100, detects the strength of the radio signal value, and compares the detected radio signal value with a reference value Thereby determining whether the mobile terminal 100 is close to the watch-type mobile terminal 200. That is, since the watch-type terminal 200 is already worn by the user, the controller determines whether the mobile terminal 100 is close to the watch-type terminal 200, instead of determining whether the watch-type terminal is worn.

As a result of the comparison, if the mobile terminal 100 detects that the watch-type terminal 200 is within the reference range, it can execute the transfer of the moving picture screen 501 so that the mobile terminal 100 can view the moving picture screen 501 again have. In this case, the distance between the reference range interference watch type terminal 200 and the mobile terminal 100 is set to be a distance (distance) between the mobile terminal 100 and the mobile terminal 100, .

Here, an indicator 510 indicating that a call signal has been received is continuously output to the watch-type terminal 200. To this end, the control unit can determine whether to transfer the event notification or the viewing screen based on the type of the generated event and the type and operating state of the screen being output to the watch type terminal 200 at the time of occurrence of the event. For example, in the case of the notification icon indicating that the call signal is received as shown in FIG. 5A, the notification icon is outputted to the watch type terminal 200 in which the user can immediately respond, and the screen being viewed is transferred to the mobile terminal 100 .

5A, when the call call is terminated, the control unit displays the moving picture moving picture transferred to the mobile terminal 100 again after the watch type terminal 200 You can run the migration. Alternatively, although not shown, an option to execute re-transfer of the moving image screen to one area of the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 when the call call performed through the watch- , For example, a menu key may be generated.

In addition, the control unit may limit screen transfer to the connected terminal based on the processing time of the generated event. For example, if 'reject' is selected in response to a call signal within a predetermined time after the output of the indicator 510 in FIG. 5A, only the indicator 510 disappears from the screen and the moving picture is transferred to the mobile terminal 100 Can be limited. That is, at this time, the user sees the moving picture screen through the watch type terminal 200, and does not perform the screen moving.

According to the above-described embodiment, the processing of the received call signal is performed by the watch-type terminal 200, and at the same time, the moving picture screen is naturally transmitted to the mobile terminal 100, (100). ≪ / RTI > Also, while the user is performing a call call through the watch-type terminal 200, the moving picture screen can be viewed through the mobile terminal 100, which is a large screen.

Next, FIG. 5B shows an example of processing when a call signal is received at the mobile terminal 100 while watching the moving picture screen 502 through the mobile terminal 100. FIG.

While the moving picture is being reproduced, an indicator 520 indicating that a call signal has been received may be output as a bar-shaped image at the top of the display unit 151 to minimize screen clipping. When the indicator 520 is outputted, the controller can determine whether the connected watch-type terminal 200 is worn on the user's wrist. The process of recognizing by the mobile terminal 100 whether or not the watch-type terminal 200 is worn on the user's wrist has been described in detail above, and therefore, a description thereof will be omitted here.

If it is recognized that the watch-type terminal 200 is worn on the user's wrist and there is no response to the received call signal exceeding a predetermined time (for example, 2 seconds to 3 seconds), as shown in FIG. 5B, The notification icon 504 indicating that the call signal has been received is transferred to the worn watch type terminal 200. [ Then, the bar-shaped indicator 520 which has been outputted to the top of the display unit 151 disappears from the screen. At this time, it may include at least a part of the information displayed in the information indicator 520 displayed in the transferred notification icon 504. [

Now, the user can perform a response to the call signal through the watch-type terminal 200 and continue to view the moving picture screen 502 through the mobile terminal 100, which is a larger screen.

In addition, in one embodiment, when the received call signal is not a voice call but a video call, the currently displayed moving picture screen 502 is not an announcement icon 504 indicating that a call signal has been received, ). In this case, the user can perform a video call through a larger screen. At this time, the transferred moving picture screen 502 can be output to the watch-type terminal 200 in the playback stop state.

Also, although not shown, in a state in which a notification icon indicating the occurrence of an event is output to the watch-type terminal 200 or to the mobile terminal 100, an input set in the notification icon, for example, If a touch gesture or flicking touch input such as exporting is applied, the control unit can transfer the notification icon to another connected device. At this time, if there are a plurality of connected devices, the notification icon can be transferred to the selected device based on the drag direction and the touch end point of the touch gesture or the flicking touch input.

In the above, an implementation operation related to an example in which the notification icon is transferred to the other terminal or the current display screen is transferred to another terminal while the notification icon is maintained has been examined. Hereinafter, in order to maximize the immersion feeling of the screen that is currently being viewed, an implementation operation in which the notification icon is output naturally from the first to the other terminal will be described.

FIG. 6 is a flow chart illustrating operations performed in the mobile terminal 100 in this regard.

Referring to FIG. 6, a first screen may be displayed on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 (S610). Likewise, there is no limitation on the type of the first screen. If an event is generated in at least one application installed in the mobile terminal 100 while the first screen is being displayed on the display unit 151, the control unit may generate an event based on the operation state of the first screen and the type of the generated event The output of the notification icon corresponding to the notification icon can be limited (S620).

For example, when the event is a push alarm related to the first screen, the output of the push alarm may be restricted so as not to interfere with the viewing immersion. For example, in the case of a plurality of push alarms generated at a predetermined time in the same application, it may be provided at a time when the first screen is displayed while the first screen is stopped or terminated.

In a state where the output of the event notification is limited, the controller detects whether the second terminal connected to the mobile terminal 100, for example, the watch-type terminal 200 is worn (S630). If it is recognized that the watch type terminal 200 is worn, the control unit displays a notification icon corresponding to the event that occurred in the mobile terminal 100 while the first screen is being displayed on the display unit 151, (Step S640).

That is, while watching the content using the mobile terminal 200 while the wearer wears the watch-type terminal 200 on the wrist, event notifications that may interfere with watching the content are output only to the watch-type terminal 200 So that the information related to the event can be confirmed through the watch-type terminal 200 while improving the immersion feeling.

Hereinafter, FIG. 7 shows an example for explaining the implementation operation of FIG. 7, when a notification event is generated in a certain application while the moving picture screen 701 is displayed on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100, the control unit displays a schedule alarm 710 corresponding to the event Type terminal 200 as shown in FIG. At this time, predetermined vibration may be output together with the mobile terminal 100 in order to call attention of the user watching the moving picture screen.

The schedule alarm 710 may include at least a part of set schedule information. When the corresponding schedule application is installed in the watch type terminal 100, the user can directly enter the detailed information of the set schedule information by applying a touch input to the output schedule alarm 710. On the other hand, if the corresponding application is not installed in the watch-type terminal 100, the information can be provided only through the schedule alarm 710. In this case, in order to confirm detailed information related to the schedule, a user can transfer the schedule alarm 710 to the mobile terminal 100 by applying a touch gesture such as taking out the schedule alarm 710, and then confirm. Then, the predetermined alarm information can be provided while covering at least a part of the moving picture screen 701 being reproduced.

Here, the user gesture for transferring the schedule alarm 710 to the mobile terminal 100 can be variously implemented. For example, instead of applying the touch input to the display unit 251, it is also possible to execute a pre-alarm command through inputting a predetermined input to the bezel unit of the watch-type terminal 200 or voice input.

6, when the operation state of the moving picture screen 701 is changed, for example, when the reproduction is suspended or stopped, the control unit moves the schedule alarm 710 transferred to the watch-type terminal 200 Or may be transferred to the mobile terminal 100 or provided together. That is, since it is not necessary to maintain the immersion feeling, the mobile terminal 100 provides the information related to the event occurring in the mobile terminal 100 through the mobile terminal 100.

At this time, when a plurality of notification icons are accumulated in the watch-type terminal 200, the notification icons accumulated in response to the change in the operation state of the moving picture screen 701 being reproduced can be provided to the mobile terminal 100 at one time will be.

8 is a flow chart for explaining an operation performed when an event occurs in a watch-type terminal according to the present invention, and Figs. 9A and 9B are illustrative conceptual diagrams for explaining an implementation operation related to Fig.

Referring to FIG. 8, a step of detecting a connection with the mobile terminal 100 through a wireless communication unit of the watch-type terminal 200 is started (S810). The watch-type terminal 200 and the mobile terminal 100 are connected to each other via a wireless communication interface such as Bluetooth or the like, a wireless Internet standard such as Wi-Fi, an external device interface such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) And the like.

Next, when an event occurs in at least one application installed in the watch-type terminal 200, the control unit outputs a notification icon indicating the occurrence of the event to the display unit 251 of the watch-type terminal 200 (S820) . At this time, the notification icon may be output to cover at least a part of the screen output to the display unit 251, or may be output to a predetermined area that minimizes the screen blindness.

In response to the notification icon being output, the control unit may detect whether or not the watch-type terminal 200 is worn based on the sensor value sensed through one or more sensors (S830).

If it is determined that the watch-type mobile terminal 200 has not been used yet, the controller can transfer the screen corresponding to the notification icon to the connected mobile terminal 100 (S840). Accordingly, the user can immediately check the event generated in the watch-type terminal 200 through the mobile terminal 100. [ That is, assuming that the user is using the mobile terminal 100, the information provided from the watch type terminal 200 is immediately provided to the user through the mobile terminal 100.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the watch-type terminal 200 is worn, the control unit may provide the display unit 251 with an option corresponding to the previous screen corresponding to the notification icon (S850). That is, if the user has already worn the watch-type terminal 200, the watch-type terminal 200 can see the event through the watch-type terminal 200 and leave the event notification to the user's choice.

Meanwhile, in one embodiment, this option may also be provided on the display unit 151 of the connected mobile terminal 100. [ For example, even when the user uses the mobile terminal 100 while wearing the watch-type terminal 200, if the user is immersed in the screen displayed on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 Even if the watch-type terminal 200 is worn, the received information may be missed. Option information for asking whether the mobile terminal 100 is to receive information related to an event occurring in the watch type terminal 200 may be output to one area of the display unit 151. [ In this case, the option information is displayed in a size and position that minimizes screen blurring output to the display unit 151, and information related to an event occurring in the watch-type terminal 200 may not be displayed.

9A shows a case where an alarm icon 910 indicating that a call signal has been received is output to the watch-type terminal 200 in a state where the watch-type terminal 200 with the built-in SIM is 'not used'. In this case, the control unit of the watch-type terminal 200 or the mobile terminal 100 transmits a notification icon 920 indicating that a call signal is received to the watch-type terminal 200 on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 As shown in FIG.

In addition to the information related to the received call signal, the notification icon 920 may display not only the call signal received at the mobile terminal 100 but also information indicating that the call signal is received from the watch type terminal 200, .

Meanwhile, the above-described operations can also be implemented through the control unit of the mobile terminal 100. [ Specifically, when a call signal is received from the watch-type terminal 200, the control unit of the mobile terminal 100 recognizes whether the watch-type terminal 200 is worn based on a radio signal received from the watch-type terminal 200 .

When the watch-type mobile terminal 200 is recognized as being in a non-mobile state, the controller 180 may output an indicator for notifying the watch-type mobile terminal 200 of the call signal to one area of the display 151. On the other hand, when it is recognized that the watch-type terminal 200 is worn, the controller 180 controls the output of the indicator to be performed in response to touch input to the display unit of the mobile terminal 100 or the watch- Can be limited. That is, the transfer of the event notification is made by the user's choice.

9A, a user can perform a response to a call signal received in the watch-type terminal 200 by applying a touch input to an alert icon 920 provided in the mobile terminal 100. [ Accordingly, even when the watch-type terminal 200 is not used, the received call can be received and confirmed without missing. On the other hand, the screen blur of the mobile terminal 100 can be removed by taking a touch gesture in which the user exits the notification icon 920 out.

9B shows a case where an alarm icon 910 indicating that a call signal has been received is output to the watch-type terminal 200 in a state that the watch-type terminal 200 having the built-in SIM is 'worn'. In this case, an indicator icon 930 for inquiring whether or not the notification icon 910 is to be transferred may be output together with a notification icon 910. At this time, a specific notification image may be output to the top of the display unit 151 to alert the user who is using the mobile terminal 100. Here, the information related to the call signal may not be displayed in the specific notification image.

9B, when the mobile terminal 100 is being used while the user wears the Bluetooth earphone 300 interlocked with the mobile terminal 100, the watch-type terminal 200 transmits a call signal The Bluetooth earphone 300 must be removed first. In this case, when the touch input is applied to the indicator bar 930, the notification icon 910 is transferred to the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100, so that the Bluetooth earphone 300 connected to the mobile terminal 100 A call can be made.

Next, FIG. 10 is a flowchart for explaining another operation implemented in the watch-type terminal according to the present invention, and shows an example of controlling an operation of another device based on an event instead of providing an event notification to the other device have.

10, the step of detecting the connection with the mobile terminal 100 through the wireless communication unit is started (S1010).

Also, the first screen may be output to the display unit 251 of the watch-type terminal 200, and the controller may set at least one condition based on the information input using the first screen (S1020). That is, the user can set specific conditions using the first screen output to the display unit 251. [ Here, the type of the first screen is not limited, and includes a home screen screen including icons or widgets of one or more applications.

Here, the setting of the specific condition may include, for example, execution of a predetermined application, data input on an execution screen of a specific application, and termination of a predetermined application. It may also include initializing, changing, editing, etc. the specific setting information or operation state of the watch-type terminal 200. [ In addition, the specific condition may vary depending on the type of the first screen. For example, when the first screen is the alarm setting screen, the inputted alarm time may be the specific condition mentioned here. Alternatively, when the first screen is a home screen screen, execution of an application corresponding to the selected icon may be a specific condition referred to herein.

In response to the at least one condition being set, a first control signal for controlling the operation state of the connected mobile terminal 100 may be transmitted (S1030). Accordingly, the current operation of the mobile terminal 100 is controlled to correspond to the condition set in the watch-type terminal 100. [

Specifically, the controller may adjust at least one of configuration information of an application being executed in the mobile terminal 100 or an operation currently being executed in the mobile terminal 100 to correspond to a specific condition set in the watch-type terminal 200. [ That is, in this case, the control unit 100 transmits a control signal for executing the operation corresponding to the specific condition set in place, instead of transferring the notification icon indicating the occurrence of the event, to the mobile terminal 100 .

Next, when an event satisfying the set condition is generated, a notification icon indicating that the set condition is satisfied may be output to the display unit 251 (S1040). At this time, the notification icon may correspond to the display change of the first screen. Specifically, when the first screen is the alarm setting screen, a screen change indicating that the alarm time is reached on the first screen may be displayed on the entire alarm setting screen.

If the notification icon is displayed, the controller may transmit a second control signal to the mobile terminal 100 to change the operation state of the connected mobile terminal 200 (S1050). Accordingly, the setting information related to the current operation of the mobile terminal may be changed differently or restored to the previous state.

11A and 11B show specific examples for explaining the operation related thereto.

11A, if the calorie consumption target value is set to a specific condition by using the screen 1101 output to the watch-type terminal 200, the mobile terminal 100 connected to the watch-type terminal 200 can receive the sound- Specific circles can be reproduced. At this time, if the sound source application is not in the execution state of the mobile terminal 100, the control unit may first execute the corresponding application, and then search for the favorite list or the latest list to control the selected sound source to be reproduced.

On the other hand, the reproduction of the specific sound source can be a start and maintenance condition that the watch-type terminal 200 is worn on the user's wrist. That is, even if the specific condition set in the watch type terminal 200 is not satisfied, the playback of the corresponding sound source may be interrupted if the watch type terminal 200 is worn on the user's wrist.

Next, when the set target calorie consumption is reached, notification information 1103 indicating that the calorie consumption has reached the target value may be output to the watch-type terminal 200. In response to the output of the notification information 1103, the control unit may transmit a control signal to the mobile terminal 100, for example, to stop reproduction of the sound source.

As another example, as shown in FIG. 11B, it is possible to set a specific condition to execute jogging by executing the health application in the watch-type terminal 200. FIG. In this case, while the user is jogging while wearing the watch-type terminal 200, the notification of the setting information of the mobile terminal 100 may be changed to silent or vibration naturally. That is, while the user is exercising, it is difficult to know even if a sound is output from the mobile terminal 100, so that the user automatically changes to silent or vibration.

On the other hand, when the watch application is terminated in the watch type terminal 200, the user stops jogging (1107), or the target exercise amount is reached, notification among the setting information of the mobile terminal 100 is set to the previous setting State or can be automatically changed to a notification sound.

Hereinafter, various examples for efficiently receiving event notifications generated by a watch-type terminal 200 with a built-in SIM and a mobile terminal 100 with a built-in SIM in a specific device are shown.

12A and 12B show an example in which devices provided with event notifications are selected differently based on the separation distance between the watch-type terminal 200 and the mobile terminal 100. FIG.

12A, when the watch-type terminal 200 having the built-in SIM 1 and the mobile terminal 100 having the built-in SIM 2 are communicating with each other over a wireless network relatively far away from each other, The notification of the first event generated in the mobile terminal 100 and the notification of the second event generated in the watch type terminal 200 may all be provided through the watch type terminal 200. [ Alternatively, if the watch-type terminal 200 is not used, both the notification of the first event and the notification of the second event may be provided through the mobile terminal 100. [

Next, as shown in FIG. 12B, when the watch-type terminal 200 in which the SIM 1 is embedded and the mobile terminal 100 in which the SIM 2 is embedded are very close to each other, the watch-type terminal 200 is worn on the user's wrist The notification of the first event may be provided through the mobile terminal 100, and the notification of the second event may be provided through the watch-type terminal 200, respectively.

13, 14A, and 14B illustrate examples of methods of providing notifications of events generated in the mobile terminal 100 in the watch-type terminal 200 based on user inputs.

To this end, a SIM module for user identification may be accommodated on one side of the watch-type terminal 200, for example, on the rear side of the main body 200. The watch-type terminal 200 may include various sensors It is possible to recognize whether or not the main body is worn on the user's wrist.

The control unit of the watch-type terminal 200 receives the information (e.g., message, call signal, data, content, broadcast, etc.) through the wireless communication unit in the watch-type terminal 200, And can output the screen information to the display unit 251. [ When the first input is applied to the main body while the watch-type terminal 200 is being worn and the first screen information is being output, the controller displays the second screen information indicating the event occurring in the connected mobile terminal 100 on the display unit 251, .

When the second input is applied to the main body while the second screen information is being displayed, the second screen information related to the event generated in the mobile terminal 100 is referred to as first screen information related to the event generated in the watch type terminal 200 You can switch.

For example, as shown in FIG. 13, if a user twists the wrist so as to face upward while wearing the watch-type terminal 200, only the event notification generated in the watch-type terminal 200 with the built- Can be provided. On the other hand, if the user wraps the wrist-type terminal 200 outward while worn on the wrist-worn type terminal 200, event notification generated in the mobile terminal 100 with the built-in SIM2 is provided to the user. Accordingly, the user can selectively receive notification of an event generated in the watch-type terminal 200 and the mobile terminal 100 by twisting the wrist in a desired direction.

14A and 14B illustrate a case in which the locked state of the associated SIM is released in order to confirm the information related to the event. For example, after input for releasing the lock state as shown in FIG. 14A, When the bezel part is mechanically rotated in the clockwise direction, the locked state of the SIM 1 is released, and events generated in the mobile terminal 100 are confirmed through the display part 251 . Accordingly, the lock image 1401 is switched to a notification icon indicating an event occurred in the mobile terminal 100. [

14B, when the touch trace is drawn counterclockwise on the bezel portion of the watch-type terminal 200 or when the bezel portion is mechanically rotated counterclockwise, the lock state of the SIM 2 is released, 200) can be confirmed.

Next, FIGS. 15A and 15B illustrate an operation of interlocking with the watch-type terminal 200 when a plurality of SIMs are embedded in the mobile terminal 100, that is, when a plurality of user identification information is embedded together.

For example, when SIM1 and SIM2 are embedded in the mobile terminal 100, the connected watch-type terminal 200 can be implemented so that only event notifications generated in a specific SIM, for example, SIM1, can be provided to the user. In this case, notification of the received information with respect to the SIM 1 while wearing the watch-type terminal 200 may be provided to the watch-type terminal 200, but notification of the received information with respect to the SIM 1 may be provided to the mobile terminal 100 ). ≪ / RTI >

15B, if the first watch type terminal and the second watch type terminal are in wireless communication with the mobile terminal 100, the first watch type terminal is interlocked with the SIM 1 of the mobile terminal 100, The watch-type terminal can be interlocked with the SIM 2 of the mobile terminal 100, respectively. Meanwhile, although not shown, when the first watch type terminal and the second watch type terminal are connected, event information related to the SIM 1 transferred to the first watch type terminal may be provided to the second watch type terminal. Event information related to the SIM 2 transferred to the second watch type terminal may also be provided to the first watch type terminal.

As described above, according to the mobile terminal and its control method according to the embodiment of the present invention, when an event occurs during a content viewing, a notification related to an event or an event related to an event By naturally transferring the content to other connected terminals, it is possible to receive information related to the event while maintaining the immersion feeling. In addition, it provides notifications of events from other devices that are not in use to the display that is currently being viewed, thereby providing convenience in not missing event notifications.

The present invention described above can be embodied as computer-readable codes on a medium on which a program is recorded. The computer readable medium includes all kinds of recording devices in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. Examples of the computer readable medium include a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state disk (SSD), a silicon disk drive (SDD), a ROM, a RAM, a CD-ROM, a magnetic tape, a floppy disk, , And may also be implemented in the form of a carrier wave (e.g., transmission over the Internet). Also, the computer may include a control unit 180 of the terminal. Accordingly, the above description should not be construed in a limiting sense in all respects and should be considered illustrative. The scope of the present invention should be determined by rational interpretation of the appended claims, and all changes within the scope of equivalents of the present invention are included in the scope of the present invention.
