4 is a flowchart illustrating a display sharing method of a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention.

First, the control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 establishes display sharing with at least one or more other terminals according to the user input inputted from the user input unit 130 (S101). At this time, the control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 searches for other terminals located close to the terminal using near-field communication or the like, and can selectively set display sharing among the searched terminals.

Also, any one of the terminals connected to each other through the display sharing setting is set as the main terminal, and the remaining terminals are set as the sub terminal. In the present embodiment, the mobile terminal 100 is set as a main terminal and the other terminals are set as a sub terminal.

Also, other terminals, which are sub-terminals, automatically transmit the telephone number (or identification information, terminal name, etc.) of another terminal to the mobile terminal 100 according to the connection setting information.

After the display sharing setting between the terminals is completed, the controller 180 of the mobile terminal 100 detects the occurrence of a specific event during a predetermined operation (S102). 5 (a), when a call signal is received through the wireless communication unit 110 while the mobile terminal 100 reproduces a moving image file and displays the moving image file on the display screen, The control unit 180 detects reception of the call signal.

The controller 180 determines whether the specific event is a network-related event (S103).

If it is determined that the specific event is a network-related event, the control unit 180 transmits the generated specific event to another terminal that has set the display sharing (S104). For example, the control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 forwards a call signal received during moving image playback to the other terminal. That is, the mobile terminal 100 forwards the incoming call to the other terminal connected through the display sharing setting. 5 (b), the control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 displays the reproduced moving picture on the display screen while the moving picture reproduction is not interrupted, And outputs the reception screen to the display unit.

If it is determined that the specific event is a non-network related event, the control unit 180 transmits the execution screen information of the generated specific event to another terminal through background communication (S105). Meanwhile, the controller 180 of the mobile terminal 100 may execute the specific event and transmit the screen information displayed on the display screen to another terminal (sub terminal) connected to the mobile terminal 100.

6 is a flowchart illustrating a method of sharing a display by a mobile terminal according to another embodiment of the present invention.

The control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 transmits a connection for display sharing with another terminal 200 based on the display sharing setting information when the display sharing request is requested from the user or another terminal 200 during multitasking (S201, S202).

When the display sharing setting is completed, the control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 displays the currently running application list (task list) on the display screen (S203). At this time, the control unit 180 displays execution screens (work screens) of the application in the form of thumbnails.

The control unit 180 selects at least one application from the application list displayed on the display screen according to a user input (S204). For example, as shown in FIG. 7 (a), an application selected from an application list displayed on the display screen of the mobile terminal 100 may be selected and thrown to another terminal 200 connected to the mobile terminal 100 It performs the action as if it were.

The control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 transmits data related to the selected application to the other terminal 200 so that the selected terminal can execute the selected application from another terminal 200 connected to the mobile terminal 100 S205). At this time, the same application as the selected application must exist in the other terminal 200, and the controller 180 transmits data or event related to the selected application to the other terminal 200 through the short-range wireless communication. The control unit of the other terminal 200 processes the received data or events through the application. For example, when the user selects an application 'App # 4' from the list of applications displayed on the display screen of the first mobile terminal and flicks the mobile terminal 200 in the direction in which the second mobile terminal 200 is located The first mobile terminal 100 transmits data related to the selected application to the second mobile terminal 200. The second mobile terminal 200 transmits the data related to the selected application to the first mobile terminal 200, Receives the data transmitted from the terminal 100 and executes the selected application. In other words, if the selected application is a video player, the first mobile terminal 100 transmits the video file that is being played back to the second mobile terminal 200. Then, the second mobile terminal 200 executes the moving picture player and reproduces and displays the received moving picture file.

On the other hand, if the application is downloaded from the web, the other terminal 200 generates a pop-up inquiring whether or not the application is to be received so that the user can select the pop-up. Here, when the reception of the application is permitted, the other terminal 200 downloads the application from the web and executes the application.

FIG. 8 illustrates an example in which a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention extends an application to another terminal.

The controller 180 of the first mobile terminal 100 performs display sharing with the second mobile terminal 200 based on the predetermined connection setting information while the first mobile terminal 100 performs the message creation through the message application Connection setting.

When the connection setting is completed, the controller 180 of the first mobile terminal 100 classifies at least one or more items displayed on the display screen by the number of terminals connected to each other for display sharing. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, when a message creation screen and a keypad icon for message input are displayed on the display unit 151 of the first mobile terminal 100, the first mobile terminal 100 and the second mobile terminal When the connection setup for the display sharing of the terminal 200 is completed, the first mobile terminal 100 requests the second mobile terminal 200 to display the keypad icon. That is, only the message creation screen is displayed on the display screen of the first mobile terminal 100, and the keypad icon is displayed on the display screen of the second mobile terminal 200. [

Then, when data is inputted through the keypad icon displayed on the touch screen of the second mobile terminal 200, the controller of the second mobile terminal transmits the data input through the Wi-Fi and the Bluetooth to the first mobile terminal 100 do. The control unit 180 of the first mobile terminal 100 receives the input data transmitted from the second mobile terminal 200 via the short distance communication module 114 and inserts the input data into the message input field of the message creation screen.

In the above-described embodiment, the case of creating a text message is described as an example, but the present invention can be applied to other applications. For example, when video editing is executed, the control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 displays a screen for editing on the display screen, and the display screen of the other terminal 200 connected to the mobile terminal 100 displays the edited Display the screen or display the editing tool.

FIG. 9 shows an example in which a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention sets up a display.

The control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 establishes a connection for sharing a display with at least one terminal. Thereafter, the controller 180 enters the display screen setting mode when the display setting is requested by the user.

Upon entering the display screen setting mode, the controller 180 displays the entire display screen in a plurality of areas (displayed in a rectangular shape) and displays a list of terminals (devices) connected to the terminals together.

If a predetermined number of regions constituting the entire screen are selected in accordance with the touch and drag input of the user, the controller 180 sets a multiple screen size to a size of the selected region.

In addition, when the multi-screen size setting is completed, the controller 180 allocates a terminal in the list of connected devices to the selected area.

The controller 180 may set an aspect ratio according to a user input. For example, when dividing data into TV and phone screens, the screen is larger on the TV, so the data is divided into 8: 2, and 8/10 of the data is displayed on the TV screen. It is displayed on the phone screen (c). In other words, when the device is set in the selected predetermined area, the controller 180 acquires the display screen size information of the set device and determines the data rate to be displayed among all the data based on the screen size information.

In addition, when displaying the entire screen on a plurality of device screens connected to the controller 180, the controller 180 can swap screens or rotate the screens for each device (d).

FIG. 10 illustrates an example in which a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention stores data during display sharing.

The mobile terminal 100 divides the display screen according to the multi-screen setting and displays different data in the divided area. For example, as shown in the figure, the control unit 180 displays a preview screen of an image file transmitted from the first sub terminal and a moving image file transmitted from the second sub terminal. When the image file or the moving image file is dragged to the storage icon, the controller 180 detects the drag input and stores the image file or the moving image file in the memory 160 of the mobile terminal 100 (a).

When the medium storage icon for reproducing the image or moving image file transmitted from the other terminal is selected, the controller 180 controls the memory 160 of the mobile terminal 100 to display the file being reproduced and displayed, (B).

Further, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the above-described method can be implemented as computer-readable code on a medium on which a program is recorded. The computer readable medium includes all kinds of recording devices in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. Examples of the computer-readable medium include ROM, RAM, CD-ROM, magnetic tape, floppy disk, optical data storage, and the like, and also implemented in the form of a carrier wave (for example, transmission over the Internet) . In addition, the computer may include a control unit 180 of the terminal.

The above-described terminal may be configured such that the configuration and method of the embodiments described above are not limitedly applied, but the embodiments may be configured such that all or some of the embodiments are selectively combined so that various modifications may be made. have.
