Abstract
A wearable terminal may include: a terminal mode determination unit configured to determine any one of a plurality of terminal modes based on a use state of the terminal; an information output unit configured to display navigation information; a layout database configured to store a layout to be displayed on the information output unit, in response to each of the terminal modes; and a control unit configured to extract a layout corresponding to the determined terminal mode from the layout database, construct navigation information according to the extracted layout, and output the navigation information through the information output unit.
Claims16
A wearable terminal comprising:
- a terminal mode determination unit configured to determine any one of a plurality of terminal modes based on a use state of the terminal;
- an information output unit configured to display navigation information;
- a layout database configured to store a layout to be displayed on the information output unit, in response to each of the terminal modes;
- a control unit configured to extract a layout corresponding to the determined terminal mode from the layout database, construct navigation information according to the extracted layout, and output the navigation information through the information output unit;
- and
- a sensor input unit configured to receive sensing information for determining the use state of the terminal,
- wherein the terminal mode determination unit determines the terminal mode based on the sensing information,
- wherein the plurality of terminal modes comprise two or more of a terminal watching mode in which a user watches a screen of the wearable terminal a walking mode in which the wearable terminal is being swung, and a walking stop mode in which the wearable terminal is not moved for a preset time,
- wherein the sensor input unit comprises:
- a camera configured to take an image;
- and
- a motion measurement sensor configured to measure a motion of the wearable terminal, and
- wherein the terminal mode determination unit sets the terminal watching mode as the terminal mode when an eye shape or face shape is detected through the camera and a swing of the wearable terminal is not detected through the motion measurement sensor, sets the walking mode as the terminal mode when the motion of the wearable terminal is detected through the motion measurement sensor, and sets the walking stop mode as the terminal mode when the eye shape or the face shape is not detected through the camera and the time during which the motion of the wearable terminal is not detected through the motion measurement sensor lasts for at least a preset time.

An information display method of a wearable terminal, the method comprising:
- determining, by a terminal mode determination unit, any one of a plurality of terminal modes based on a use state of the terminal;
- and
- extracting, by a control unit, a layout corresponding to the determined terminal mode from layout database, constructing navigation information according to the extracted layout, and outputting the navigation information through an information output unit,
- wherein the layout database stores a layout of information to be displayed on the information output unit in response to each of the terminal modes, and
- wherein the information display method further comprises receiving, by a sensor input unit, sensing information for determining the use state of the terminal,
- wherein the terminal mode determination unit determines the terminal mode based on the sensing information,
- wherein the plurality of terminal modes comprise two or more of a terminal watching mode in which a user watches a screen of the wearable terminal, a walking mode in which the wearable terminal is being swung, and a walking stop mode in which the wearable terminal is not moved for a preset time, and
- wherein the sensor input unit comprises:
- a camera configured to take an image;
- and a motion measurement sensor configured to measure a motion of the wearable terminal, and
- wherein the determining of the terminal mode comprises:
- setting the terminal watching mode as the terminal mode when an eye shape or a face shape is detected through the camera and a swing of the wearable terminal is not detected through the motion measurement sensor;
- setting the walking mode as the terminal mode when the motion of the wearable terminal is detected through the motion measurement sensor;
- and
- setting the walking stop mode as the terminal mode when the eye shape or the face shape is not detected through the camera and the time during which the motion of the wearable terminal is not detected through the motion measurement sensor lasts for at least a preset time.
