Abstract
A method for controlling display of at least one item in an electronic device is provided. The method includes, while a display screen of the electronic device is in an off state, detecting a gesture performed on a portion of the display screen using a low power controller and controlling, by the low power controller, to display the one or more items on the display screen in response to the detecting of the gesture. The one or more items are displayed in part of the portion of the display screen of the electronic device.
Claims15
A method for controlling display of at least one item in an electronic device, the method comprising:
- while a display screen of the electronic device is in an off state, detecting a touch gesture performed on the display screen using a low power controller in the electronic device without waking up an application processor of the electronic device;
- classifying, by the low power controller, at least one item related to at least one application corresponding to the touch gesture, wherein the touch gesture is identified as a predetermined figure;
- identifying a position and a size of the touch gesture on the display screen while the electronic device is in the off state;
- and
- in response to the detecting of the touch gesture, controlling to display the at least one item in a portion of the display screen according to the position and the size of the touch gesture,
- wherein a position and a size of the at least one item being displayed corresponds to the position and the size of the touch gesture applied while the electronic device is in the off state.
An electronic device for controlling display of at least one item, the electronic device comprising:
- a display screen;
- an application processor;
- and
- a low power controller configured to:
- while the display screen is in an off state, detect a touch gesture performed on the display screen without waking up the application processor,
- classify at least one item related to at least one application corresponding to the touch gesture, wherein the touch gesture is identified as a predetermined figure,
- identify a position and a size of the touch gesture performed on the display screen while the display screen is in the off state, and
- in response to the detecting of the touch gesture, control to display the at least one item in a portion of the display screen according to the position and the size of the touch gesture,
- wherein a position and a size of the at least one item being displayed corresponds to the position and the size of the touch gesture applied while the electronic device is in the off state.
An electronic device for controlling a display of at least one item, the electronic device comprising:
- a display screen;
- and
- at least one processor configured to:
- detect a touch gesture performed on the display screen while the electronic device is in an off state,
- identify at least one item related to at least one application according to the touch gesture, wherein the touch gesture is identified as a predetermined figure,
- identify a position and a size of the touch gesture performed on the display screen while the electronic device is in the off state, and
- display the at least one item in a portion of the display screen based on the position and the size of the touch gesture,
- wherein a position and a size of the at least one item corresponds to the position and the size of the touch gesture applied while the electronic device is in the off state.
An electronic device for controlling display of at least one item, the electronic device comprising:
- a display screen;
- and
- at least one processor configured to:
- detect a touch gesture performed on the display screen while the display screen is in an off state,
- classify at least one item related to at least one application corresponding to the touch gesture, wherein the touch gesture is identified as a predetermined figure,
- identify a size and a position of the touch gesture performed on the display screen while the display screen is in the off state, and
- in response to detecting the touch gesture, control to display the at least one item in a portion of the display screen according to the size and the position of the touch gesture,
- wherein a size and a position of the at least one item being displayed corresponds to the size and the position of the touch gesture applied while the display screen is in the off state.
