Abstract: A method of wirelessly connecting a first device to a target device is provided. The method includes searching for at least one device located in an orientation region of the first device, when a first input signal is received, determining the target device based on a direction that the first device is oriented, performing a wireless connection with the target device, and determining whether to maintain the wireless connection with the target device, when a second input signal is received.

Abstract: A hub apparatus and a method are provided for selecting a device. The method includes receiving a service request; determining a sensor based on the received service request; receiving state information from a device including the determined sensor; and selecting the device based on the received state information.

Abstract: An electronic device and a method for displaying an image transmitted by a robot and remotely controlling a movement of the robot are provided. The electronic device includes a communicator, an inputter, a display, and a controller. The communicator receives, from the robot, an image photographed by the robot and time information. The inputter receives a command to control the robot. The display displays a screen corresponding to the image. The controller calculates a time delay between the electronic device and the robot based on the time information, control the display to display a graphical object to be overlaid on the screen, and control the communicator to transmit the command to the robot. The graphical object represents a field of view of the robot at a current time. The field of view of the robot at the current time may be estimated based on the time delay information.
