Patent number: 9826077Abstract: A method of unlocking a locking mode of a portable terminal, which includes sensing a user's gesture input which is set in a locking mode of the portable terminal. The locking mode is unlocked in response to the user's gesture input, and a function mapped to the user's gesture can be executed when unlocking the locking mode. A portable terminal compares gestures among predefined sets of gesture information in order to check whether there is a gesture that coincides with the analyzed gesture.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2010Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Su Mi Shim, Su Jung Youn

Patent number: 9535600Abstract: A touch-sensitive device has a touch-based input interface and includes a touch-based folder control for creating, moving or arranging folders in response to an input of a touch-based user interaction. The touch-sensitive device receives an input from a touch-based user interaction on a home screen of the touch sensitive device and creates a new folder in response to at least one object selected by the user interaction. The touch based folder control visually disposes the new folder at a specific place on the home screen.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2011Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Sang Ki Lee, Su Jung Youn, Kyoung Ae Lim, Su Mi Shim, Wan Soo Lim
