Display apparatus, electronic device, interactive system, and controlling methods thereof

A display apparatus which communicates with a first device which is to control a second device, the display apparatus comprising:

• a first communicator which communicates with the first device;
• a second communicator which communicates with a server which performs a voice recognition function;
• and
• a controller which, if a user voice is received from the first device, transmits the received user voice to the server, receives a control signal corresponding to the user voice from the server, and transmits the control signal to the first device,
• wherein the control signal is a signal which corresponds to a remote control signal for controlling the second device in the electronic device.

A method of controlling a first device, the method comprising:

• storing second device control information in which a remote control signal for controlling a second device of a display apparatus matches with a control signal corresponding to a user voice;
• collecting a user voice;
• transmitting the collected user voice to the display apparatus;
• receiving the control signal corresponding to the user voice from the display apparatus;
• and
• transmitting one of pre-stored remote control signals corresponding to the received control signal to the second device.

A method of controlling a display apparatus which communicates with a first device which is to control a second device, the method comprising:

• receiving a user voice from the first device;
• transmitting the received user voice to a server which performs a voice recognition function;
• receiving a control signal corresponding to the user voice from the server;
• and
• transmitting the received control signal to the first device,
• wherein the control signal is a signal in the first device which corresponds to a remote control signal which controls the second device.

An interactive system comprising a display apparatus and a first device which is to control a second device of the display apparatus,

• wherein:
• the first device transmits a collected user voice to the display apparatus, receives a control signal corresponding to the user voice, and transmits one of pre-stored remote control signals corresponding to the received control signal to the second device;
• and
• the display apparatus transmits the user voice to a server which performs a voice recognition function if the display apparatus receives the user voice from the first device, receives the control signal corresponding to the user voice from the server, and transmits the control signal to the first device.

A display apparatus which is operable to communicate with a first device, the display apparatus comprising:

• a communicator;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• based on a user voice input received from the first device through the communicator, obtain control command information corresponding to the user voice input for controlling a second device, based on a voice recognition performed with respect to the user voice input, and
• control the communicator to transmit a first remote control signal including a control signal corresponding to the obtained control command information to the first device, which when received by the first device, causes the first device to transmit a second remote control signal including a control command for controlling the second device, corresponding to the control signal, to the second device,
• wherein the controller is configured to control the communicator to transmit the first remote control signal to the first device using a first communication method,
• wherein the first remote control signal causes the first device to transmit the second remote control signal to the second device using a second communication method, and
• wherein the second communication method of the first device is different from the first communication method of the first device.

A method for allowing a first device for controlling a display apparatus to control a second device, the method comprising:

• receiving, from the first device by the display apparatus using a first communication method, a user voice input for controlling the second device;
• obtaining control command information corresponding to the user voice input for controlling the second device, based on a voice recognition performed with respect to the user voice input;
• and
• transmitting, to the first device by the display apparatus, a first remote control signal including a control signal corresponding to the obtained control command information, which when received by the first device, causes the first device to transmit a second remote control signal including a control command for controlling the second device, corresponding to the control signal to the second device,
• wherein the transmitting the first remote control signal comprises transmitting the first remote control signal to the first device using a first communication method,
• wherein the first remote control signal causes the first device to transmit the second remote control signal to the second device using a second communication method, and
• wherein the second communication method of the first device is different from the first communication method of the first device.

A display system comprising:

• a first device;
• and
• a display apparatus comprising:
• a communicator configured to communicate with the first device;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• based on a user voice input received from the first device through the communicator, obtain control command information corresponding to the user voice input for controlling a second device, based on a voice recognition performed with respect to the user voice input, and
• control the communicator to transmit a first remote control signal including a control signal corresponding to the obtained control command information to the first device,
• wherein, based on the control signal received by the first device, the first device is configured to transmit a second remote control signal including a control command for controlling the second device, corresponding to the control signal, to the second device,
• wherein the first device is configured to, based on the first remote control signal received using a first communication method, transmit the second remote control signal to the second device using a second communication method, and
• wherein the second communication method of the first device is different from the first communication method of the first device.
