Abstract
Disclosed are a mobile terminal having a plurality of light emitting devices, and a method for controlling the same. The mobile terminal includes a camera; a light emitting portion including a plurality of light emitting units; and a controller configured to control the light emitting portion to emit light, such that depth information of an image received through the camera is extracted, wherein the controller determines the number of light emitting units which emit light among the plurality of light emitting units, based on a distance between a subject corresponding to the image and the camera.
Claims20
A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a camera;
- a light emitting portion including a plurality of light emitting units;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- cause the light emitting portion to emit light to obtain depth information of an image received via the camera;
- and
- determine a number of light emitting units that emit light among the plurality of light emitting units based on a distance between a subject corresponding to the image and the camera.
A method for controlling a mobile terminal comprising a camera and a light emitting portion, the method comprising:
- receiving an image via the camera;
- determining a distance between a subject corresponding to the image and the camera;
- and
- determining a number of light emitting units that emit light among a plurality of light emitting units included in the light emitting portion based on a distance between the subject and the camera.
