Abstract: A method of controlling a device includes determining a distance between the device and a hovering inputter; determining 3-dimensional (3D) location information of a hovering input based on the distance; selecting a task among a plurality of tasks corresponding to an operation of an application executed by the device and the 3D location information of the hovering input; determining a class of an execution input according to the hovering input; and performing the selected task according to the determined class of the execution input.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a sensor network, Machine Type Communication (MTC), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, and technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the above technologies, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. Provided are methods, apparatuses and systems for controlling an object displayed on a device, based on a hovering input obtained by the device.

Abstract: A display device for providing a virtual reality service is provided. The display device includes: a display configured to display a stereoscopic image; a user interface configured to receive a user command for enlarging or shrinking the stereoscopic image; and a processor configured to adjust a three-dimensional effect for the stereoscopic image to correspond to the user command when the user command is input, and control the display to display an enlarged image or a shrunk image in which the three-dimensional effect is adjusted.
