Exemplary embodiments relate to a display apparatus and a control method thereof which determines through a sensor, such as a pyroelectric infrared ray (PIR) sensor, and a camera, whether a user intends to use the display apparatus, and drives the display apparatus based on the users intentions in order to reduce booting time. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A display apparatus comprising: a display; at least one sensor configured to sense a motion within a predetermined distance in at least one of front, left and right directions, while in an activated state; a camera configured to extract image information related to an object which is located in front of or near the display apparatus; and a central processing unit (CPU) configured to be activated by a sensing signal from the at least one sensor, activates the camera, and controls power supplied to the display according to an analysis result of the image information related to the object provided by the camera. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the CPU is configured to identify whether the object is a human or a pet. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The display apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the CPU is configured to determine whether to supply power to the display according to whether the object intends to use the display apparatus, in response to an identification that the object is the human. ### Claim 4 A display apparatus comprising: at least one sensor configured to sense a motion within a predetermined distance in at least one of front, left and right directions, while in an activated state; at least one camera configured to extract image information related to an object; and a central processing unit (CPU) configured to be activated by a sensing signal from the at least one sensor, activates the at least one camera, and performs a security operation according to an analysis result of the image information related to the object provided by the camera. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The display apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the security function comprises at least one of outputting a warning sound, outputting a warning screen, a recording function and external transmission of data. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The display apparatus according to claim 5, wherein the data transmitted to the outside comprises information that has been recorded by the at least one camera. ### Claim 7 (depends on 4) The display apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the CPU compares the image information related to the object with stored image information in order to determine whether to perform the security function. ### Claim 8 (depends on 4) The display apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the CPU selects and activates the at least one camera facing in the same direction as the at least one sensorsensing the motion. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the at lease one sensor comprises one of an infrared sensor, a PIR sensor, a broadband RF sensor, a radar sensor and an ultrasonic sensor. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the at least one sensor is activated through a graphic user interface (GUI). ### Claim 11 (depends on 4) The display apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the at least one sensor comprises one of an infrared sensor, a PIR sensor, a broadband RF sensor, a radar sensor and an ultrasonic sensor. ### Claim 12 (depends on 4) The display apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the at least one sensor is activated through a graphic user interface (GUI). ### Claim 13 A method of controlling a display apparatus, the method comprising: activating a sensor; transmitting a sensing signal of the sensor to a central processing unit (CPU) in order to activate the CPU; activating a camera by the CPU, the camera being activated by the sensing signal and receiving from the camera image information related to an object located in front of or near the display apparatus; analyzing the received image information related to the object by the CPU; and controlling power supplied to a display according to an analysis result by the CPU. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The control method according to claim 13, wherein the CPU supplies power to the display in response to an identification, through the analysis of the image information related to the object, that the object intends to use the display apparatus. ### Claim 15 A method of controlling a display apparatus the method comprising: activating a sensor, transmitting a sensing signal of the sensor to a central processing unit (CPU) in order to activate the CPU; activating a camera by the CPU, the camera being activated by the sensing signal and receiving from the camera image information related to an object located in front of or near the display apparatus; searching for the image information related to the object from a database by the CPU; and performing a security function in response to no corresponding image information being found. ### Claim 16 A display apparatus for reducing booting time, the display apparatus comprising: at least one sensor configured to sense a motion within a predetermined distance, while in an activated state; a camera configured to extract image information related to an object located in front of or near the display apparatus; and a central processing unit (CPU) configured to be activated by a sensing signal from the at least one sensor, activate the camera, and performs a security operation according to an analysis result of the image information related to the object provided by the camera. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The display apparatus of claim 16, wherein power is turned off except for minimal power to the sensor, prior to the CPU receiving a signal from the sensor. ### Claim 18 (depends on 16) The display apparatus according to claim 16, wherein the CPU is configured to identify whether the object is a human or a pet. ### Claim 19 (depends on 16) The display apparatus of claim 16, wherein the security operation comprises at least one of outputting a warning sound, outputting a warning screen, a recording function and external transmission of data. ### Claim 20 (depends on 16) The display apparatus of claim 16, wherein the CPU compares the image information related to the object with stored image information in order to determine whether to perform the security operation.
