Abstract
The present invention relates to a waterproof device for diving including a mobile terminal and an openable and closable waterproof housing for diving adapted to detachably mount the mobile terminal thereonto, wherein the mobile terminal includes an I/O module for displaying at least one of an information pop-up and a functional mode, a first sensor part for detecting internal pressure of the waterproof housing for diving, and a control unit for determining whether the waterproof housing for diving is normally fastened using the detected internal pressure.
Claims20
A waterproof device for diving comprising:
- a mobile terminal;
- and
- an openable and closable waterproof housing adapted to detachably mount the mobile terminal,
- wherein the mobile terminal comprises:
- a touchscreen for displaying at least one of an information pop-up and a functional mode;
- a first pressure sensor for detecting internal pressure of the waterproof housing;
- and
- a processor configured to determine whether the waterproof housing is normally fastened using the detected internal pressure,
- wherein the processor is configured to calculate an inclination of the internal pressure at predetermined intervals and determine whether water leakage occurs from the waterproof housing based on the calculated inclination of the internal pressure.
A method for operating a waterproof device for diving having a mobile terminal for detecting internal pressure and an openable and closable waterproof housing adapted to detachably mount the mobile terminal thereonto, the method comprising the steps of:
- detecting the internal pressure of the waterproof housing;
- determining whether the waterproof housing is normally fastened using the detected internal pressure;
- displaying at least one of an information pop-up and a functional mode;
- calculating an inclination of the internal pressure at predetermined intervals;
- and
- determining whether water leakage occurs from the waterproof housing based on the calculated inclination of the internal pressure.
