Abstract
A method of controlling a display, performed by an image displaying apparatus, includes acquiring a screen parameter corresponding to an application that is being executed in a terminal, determining a partial region from within an entire region of a display of the terminal based on the acquired screen parameter, interrupting a supply of power to a remaining region of the entire region of the display except for the determined partial region, and displaying an execution window of the application in the determined partial region.
Claims16
A method of controlling a display, performed by an image displaying apparatus, the method comprising:
- acquiring a screen parameter and a window parameter corresponding to an application that is being executed in a terminal;
- determining a remaining capacity of a battery of the terminal;
- determining which portion of the terminal is held by a user;
- determining a partial region of an entire region of a display of the terminal based on the acquired screen parameter, the determined remaining capacity of the battery, and the determined portion of the terminal;
- interrupting a supply of power to a remaining region of the entire region of the display except for the determined partial region;
- and
- displaying an application image of the application on an execution window of the application in the determined partial region by zooming out the application image based on the screen parameter and by clipping the application image that is zoomed out based on the window parameter,
- wherein a size of the determined partial region is smaller than the entire region of the display of the terminal, and
- wherein a size of the execution window is smaller than the size of the determined partial region.
An image displaying apparatus comprising:
- a display;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- acquire a screen parameter and a window parameter corresponding to an application currently being executed in a terminal,
- determine a remaining capacity of a battery of the terminal,
- determine which portion of the terminal is held by a user,
- determine a partial region of an entire region of the display of the terminal based on the acquired screen parameter, the determined remaining capacity of the battery, and the determined portion of the terminal,
- interrupt a supply of power to a remaining region of the entire region of the display except for the determined partial region, and
- control the display to display an application image of the application on an execution window of the application in the determined partial region by zooming out the application image based on the screen parameter and by clipping the application image that is zoomed out based on the window parameter,
- wherein a size of the determined partial region is smaller than the entire region of the display of the terminal, and
- wherein a size of the execution window is smaller than the size of the determined partial region.
