Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to providing to a smart window system capable of controlling a state of a display element (e.g., at least one of transparency, color, pattern, gradation degree, and displayed information) through various kinds of input devices and a control method thereof. In accordance with one aspect of the present disclosure, a smart window system may include a display element; an input device configured to receive a control command for the display element; and a controller configured to determine at least one of transparency, color, pattern, and gradation of the display element and information displayed on the display element on the basis of the control command.

Abstract: A portable device and a method for providing a User Interface (UI) mode are provided. The portable device includes a display unit, a sensor unit for sensing a user's motion, and a control unit for controlling, if the user's motion is sensed by the sensor unit, the display unit to release a standby mode of the portable device and to output a UI mode screen corresponding to a type of the motion.

Abstract: A method of displaying information when an electronic apparatus is booted is provided. The method includes storing specific information, the specific information being monitored and collected from data created when the electronic apparatus operates, in an information file, and executing the information file storing the specific information during booting of the electronic apparatus and displaying the specific information.

Abstract: Provided is a device including a user input unit that receives a user input for inputting a search keyword, a display unit that displays a list of annotations associated with the search keyword from among at least one annotation set to at least one content, a control unit that controls the unit input unit and the display unit, wherein the user input unit receives a user input for selecting at least one in the list of annotations, and the display unit displays content for which the selected annotation is set from among the at least one content.

Abstract: A method for sharing content in a portable apparatus with a remote device includes receiving user interaction with a document targeted for photographing through a camera of the portable apparatus; and transmitting information of a content corresponding to the document with at least one remote device so as to correspond to the user interaction with the document. The user interaction with the contents of the portable apparatus input through the camera is shared with the remote device.

Abstract: A method for indicating a direction of content transfer intuitively and a device applying the same includes determining directions in which surrounding devices of the device are located, and a direction to which the content on a display of the device is to be moved, and transferring the content to the surrounding device located in the determined direction. Accordingly, it is possible to select a device to receive the content more easily and intuitively, and also input a command to select the device to receive the content and to transfer the content with one single manipulation.

Abstract: An example user terminal device includes a display unit, including a display, configured to display a lock screen. The lock screen includes content representative information representing content included in a message that is provided by an acquaintance of a user of the user terminal device, and a first user interface element. A control unit, including a processor, is configured to, when a user input signal is received via the first user interface element, execute an application capable of reproducing the content and to reproduce the content.

Abstract: A touch screen panel may include a liquid crystal, a first transparent electrode and a second transparent electrode provided at both sides of the liquid crystal, and a controller configured to transfer image data to the first transparent electrode and the second transparent electrode in a first mode and sense a touch of a user on at least one of the first transparent electrode and the second transparent electrode in a second mode.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of controlling a motion of an object on a touch screen of a device including recognizing pressures at least two positions on the touch screen of the device, and controlling a motion of the object on the touch screen using a difference in pressure between the at least two recognized positions.

Abstract: A portable device and a method for controlling brightness thereof are provided. The portable device includes a display, a sensor and a controller. The display provides a display region that is displayed with a first brightness. The sensor senses a surrounding brightness of the portable device. The controller controls the display to display a partial region corresponding to a User Interaction (UI) element in the display region with a second brightness based on the sensed surrounding brightness.

Abstract: A portable device providing notice information and a method for providing the notice information thereof are provided. The portable device includes a display configured to be divided into areas respectively corresponding to types of notice information, and a controller configured to sense an event corresponding to the notice information, and control the display to activate pixels included in an area corresponding to a type of the notice information, and inactivate pixels included in an area not corresponding to the type of the notice information, among the areas, in response to the controller sensing the event.

Abstract: A terminal device and a data transceiving method are provided. The terminal device includes a sensing unit which senses a momentum of the terminal device, an interface unit which receives a momentum from at least one external device, and a control unit which performs one of a data receiving operation, a data transmitting operation, and a data transceiving operation with the at least one external device depending on a comparison value obtained from a comparison of the sensed momentum with the received momentum to allow two devices to exchange data more easily.

Abstract: A device and method for controlling rotation of a displayed image is provided. The device includes a sensor unit for detecting whether the device has been rotated; a photography unit for taking a picture of the face of a user in response to a determination that the device is rotated; a rotation determination unit for determining a rotation of the displayed image based on the captured face image of the user; and an image rotation unit for rotating the displayed image according to the determined rotation of the displayed image.
