Abstract
A mobile terminal including a speaker configured to output sound data, a microphone configured to receive voice data, a sensing unit configured to sense a touching operation of at least one of 1) the speaker or the microphone and 2) a neighborhood area of the speaker or the microphone, and a controller configured to control a volume of the speaker or the microphone based on the sensed touching operation of said at least one of 1) the speaker or the microphone and 2) the neighborhood area of the speaker or the microphone.
Claims26
A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a speaker configured to output sound data;
- a microphone configured to receive voice data;
- a sensing unit configured to sense a touching operation of at least one of 1) the speaker or the microphone and 2) a neighborhood area of the speaker or the microphone;
- and
- a controller configured to control a volume of the speaker or the microphone based on the sensed touching operation of said at least one of 1) the speaker or the microphone and 2) the neighborhood area of the speaker or the microphone.
A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a camera configured to capture image data;
- a sensing unit configured to sense a touching operation of at least one of the camera or a neighborhood area of the camera;
