  • Patent number: 8559603
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for communicating through a phone having a voice recognition function are provided. The method of performing communication using a phone having a voice recognition function includes converting to an incoming call notification and voice recognition mode when a phone call is received; converting to a communication connection and speakerphone mode when voice information related to a communication connection instruction is recognized; performing communication using a speakerphone; and ending communication when voice information related to a communication end instruction is recognized during communication using the speakerphone. Therefore, when a phone call is received, a mode of a phone is converted to a speakerphone mode with a voice instruction using a voice recognition function, and thus communication can be performed without using a hand.

  • Publication number: 20110102599
    Abstract: Disclosed is a mobile terminal for providing a blackboard function to an image projected through a projector, which includes a projector for projecting an image on a screen, a camera for photographing the image projected through the projector and transferring the photographed image to an image processor. The image processor processes the image transferred from the camera and transfers the processed image to a controller. The controller controls the operation of the mobile terminal including recognizing an effective region for the projected image where infrared rays are detected from the photographed image so as to recognize an indication position of an indication device. The indication device generates infrared rays, in the projected image, and when the infrared rays are detected, a preset mark is displayed on a position of the detected infrared rays by using the projector.
