Abstract: An electronic device and a controlling method thereof are provided. The method of controlling an electronic device includes acquiring user information, determining a plurality of categories regarding a music content to be included in a playlist based on the acquired user information, and providing a playlist including a plurality of music contents based on the determined plurality of categories.

Abstract: A display apparatus and a method of controlling a screen thereof are provided. The method includes displaying a rectangular screen including a digital image in a display area, receiving information to modify a shape of the rectangular screen, and modifying and displaying the shape of the rectangular screen based on a coordinate value of a horizontal axis of the display area, and the received information. A height of the modified screen decreases as the height is closer to the coordinate value, and the digital image decreases in size as the digital image is closer to the coordinate value to correspond to the height.

Abstract: An audio output apparatus a display configured to display an output image; a speaker configured to output audio; and a processor configured to control the speaker to output music content as the audio, determine, based on meta data and external environment information, an image category corresponding to the music content among presorted image categories, determine at least one image corresponding to the determined image category as a background image, and control the display to display the determined at least one image as the output image.

Abstract: A display device that can prevent moiré pattern is provided. The display device includes a display panel configured to display an image; a transmission member which is arranged in front of the display panel and transfers light which is projected from the display panel to express the image; and a diffusion member which is arranged between the display panel and the transmission member, diffuses the light, and transfer the diffused light to the transmission member.

Abstract: An electronic device and a method of controlling the same, in which the electronic device includes a display configured to display a polyhedral user interaction (UI), a sensor configured to sense a user interaction with respect to the polyhedral UI, an audio outputter configured to reproduce music content, and while an image of a first music content is being displayed on a first face of a plurality of faces of the polyhedral UI, a controller is configured to control the audio outputter to reproduce a second music content which is in the same category as the first music content in response to the user interaction sensed by the sensor being a first interaction, and control the audio outputter to reproduce a third music content which is in a different category from the first music content, in response to the user interaction sensed by the sensor being a second interaction.

Abstract: An electronic device and a controlling method thereof are provided. The method of controlling an electronic device includes acquiring user information, determining a plurality of categories regarding a music content to be included in a playlist based on the acquired user information, and providing a playlist including a plurality of music contents based on the determined plurality of categories.

Abstract: An electronic device and a controlling method thereof are provided. The electronic device may include a microphone configured to receive sound and generate an audio signal based on the sound; a communicator configured to perform communication with an external device; and a controller configured to control the communicator to transmit the audio signal to external device and receive information regarding music content corresponding to the audio signal from the external device.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a user interface (UI) unit configured to provide a UI screen (or GUI screen) and a processor configured to extract a main color value from identifications image of each of a plurality of sound contents, and provide a UI screen where identification images representing the plurality of sound contents are arranged by color based on the main color value through the user interface unit. Accordingly, a user may search a sound content more intuitively and emotionally without relying simply on his or her memories and thus, user convenience is improved.

Abstract: An acoustic output device is provided. The acoustic output device includes: a speaker unit; a user interface unit providing a user interface region for browsing acoustic contents and a scroll user interface (UI) scrolled in the user interface region and guiding a position of an acoustic content selected depending on a scroll interaction in the user interface region to which all the acoustic contents are mapped; and a processor performing a control to decide or designate an acoustic content corresponding to a position of the scroll UI among all the acoustic contents mapped to the user interface region and output the decided acoustic content through the speaker unit. Therefore, a position of a virtual acoustic content is displayed and outputted according to a position of a user interface device depending on a manipulation of a user, such that manipulation convenience of the user is increased.

Abstract: An acoustic output device is provided. The acoustic output device including: a speaker unit; a user interface unit configured to provide a user interface region to which acoustic contents are mapped and including a scroll user interface (UI) for browsing the acoustic contents according to a scroll interaction on the user interface region; and a processor configured to reproduce a preset section of an acoustic content of the acoustic contents mapped to a first area of the user interface region as he scroll UI moves through a position on the user interface region corresponding to the first area to provide a pre-listening function for the acoustic content through the speaker unit.
