Abstract: A display apparatus and a display method capable of controlling cursor movement are disclosed. The display apparatus includes an input unit which receives an input cursor movement command, a display unit which displays at least one object and a cursor on a screen and moves the cursor according to the cursor movement command, and a control unit which controls the display unit to automatically move the cursor to a target point that corresponds to a direction of movement of the cursor within the object in response to the cursor moving into a range that is set on the basis of the object. Accordingly, a user can select and execute a specified object through an easy and convenient operation.

Abstract: A server, a terminal apparatus, a service transit server, and a control method thereof are provided. The server includes a communicator configured to communicate with a terminal apparatus, a storage configured to store information regarding contexts collectable from the terminal apparatus, a determinator configured to, in response to an occurrence of an event to change a service provided by the server, determine whether contexts regarding the changed service are collectable from the terminal apparatus based on the information regarding contexts and a controller configured to, in response to the determinator determining that the contexts regarding the changed service are collectable, request the terminal apparatus to transmit the contexts regarding the changed service and provide the changed service based on the contexts received in response to the request.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for processing content. In the method for processing content, a query for retrieving content to be stored is generated by combining a main category, a user's keyword, and a sub-category of the main category. The content is retrieved using the generated query. The content is classified and stored in a scrap book of the sub-category.

Abstract: An interactive server, a control method thereof, and an interactive system are provided. The interactive server includes: a communicator which communicates with a display apparatus to receive an uttered voice signal; a storage device which stores utterance history information of a second uttered voice signal received from the display apparatus before the first uttered voice signal is received; an extractor which extracts uttered elements from the received first uttered voice signal; and a controller which generates response information based on the utterance history information stored in the storage device and the extracted uttered elements and transmits the response information to the display apparatus. Therefore, the interactive server comprehends intentions of the user with respect to various uttered voices of the user to generate response information according to the intentions and transmits the response information to the display apparatus.

Abstract: A display apparatus and a server which implements an interactive system are disclosed. The server includes a communicator which receives text information corresponding to a user voice collected at the display apparatus from the display apparatus, and a controller which extracts an utterance component from the text information and controls so that a query to search contents is generated using the extracted utterance component and transmitted to an external server which categorizes metadata of the content under each item and stores the same, in which the controller generates the query by adding a preset item to a criteria to search a content, when a number of criteria to categorize the content under an item corresponding to the extracted utterance component is less than a preset number.

Abstract: A channel zapping method is provided. The channel zapping method includes setting a channel group selected from among a plurality of channel groups classified by genre as a target for group zapping, and if a channel zapping command is input, performing channel zapping to a next channel in the channel group to which a current channel belongs, and if a group zapping command is input, performing channel zapping to a channel in another channel group included in the target for group zapping, and the another channel group is a channel group in a highest class or in a sub class which belongs to the highest class in the each genre.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging system adaptively and dynamically adjusts color and brightness of illuminators mounted on the inside of a bore in response to a scan sequence used for magnetic resonance imaging or the state of a patient in order to relieve discomfort during magnetic resonance imaging. An illuminator control unit selects and determines optical characteristics of the illuminators in response to a scan sequence or the state of a patient.
