  • Patent number: 11166097
    Abstract: A remote control apparatus is disclosed. The remote control apparatus comprises: a microphone; a communication unit; a storage unit for storing pattern information of a non-audible sound for identification of the locality of an external electronic device; and a processor for broadcasting, through the communication unit, information acquired on the basis of an ambient sound received through the microphone, and when a non-audible sound based on broadcasted information output from an electronic device is received through the microphone, comparing a pattern of the received non-audible sound with pattern information stored in the storage unit, and transmitting a pairing request signal to the electronic device on the basis of a comparison result.

  • Patent number: 10924794
    Abstract: A remote controller is provided. The remote controller includes an input interface; a communicator; a storage; and a processor configured to: transmit, to the display apparatus via the communicator, a signal indicating control instructions based on a user input received through the input interface, receive, from the display apparatus via the communicator, information related to a first control code for controlling a first source device of the at least one source device based on the control instructions, identify the first control code from a first control code set stored in the storage based on the information related to the first control code, and control the communicator to transmit a first control signal indicating the first control code to the first source device.

  • Patent number: 10553105
    Abstract: A remote controller includes a communicator and a processor configured to control the communicator to transmit an identification information request signal to a plurality of electronic apparatuses paired with the remote controller. Based on a signal that includes identification information being received from two or more of the plurality of electronic apparatuses in response to the identification information request signal, the processor controls the communicator to identify a direction of the remote controller based on a direction from which each of the signals is received. The processor causes communication to be performed via an exclusive communication channel between the remote controller and one of the plurality of electronic apparatuses based on the identified direction.
