With this structure, the user can see an object located behind the terminal body through the area occupied by the display of the terminal body.

There may be more than one display depending on the implementation of the avatar growing display device 200. For example, in the avatar growing display device 200, a plurality of displays may be spaced apart from one another or may be disposed integrally with one another, or may be disposed on different surfaces, respectively.

In addition, the display may be configured as a stereoscopic display for displaying stereoscopic images.

On the other hand, in the case where a display and a sensor (hereinafter, referred to as a 'touch sensor') that detects a touch operation form a mutual layer structure (hereinafter referred to as a 'touch screen'), the display may be used as an input device have. The touch sensor may have the form of, for example, a touch film, a touch sheet, a touch pad, or the like.

The touch sensor may be configured to convert a change in a pressure applied to a specific portion of the display or a capacitance occurring in a specific portion of the display to an electrical input signal. The touch sensor can be configured to detect not only the position and area where the touch object is touched on the touch sensor but also the pressure at the time of touch. Here, the touch object may be a finger, a touch pen, a stylus pen, a pointer, or the like as an object to which a touch is applied to the touch sensor.

If there is a touch input to the touch sensor, the corresponding signal (s) is sent to the touch controller. The touch controller processes the signal (s) and transmits the corresponding data to the control unit 280. Thus, the control unit 280 can know which area of the display is touched or the like.

Referring to FIG. 2, a proximity sensor may be disposed in an inner region of the avatar growth display device 200 wrapped by the touch screen or in the vicinity of the touch screen. The proximity sensor may be provided as an example of the sensing unit 250. The proximity sensor refers to a sensor that detects the presence or absence of an object approaching a predetermined detection surface or a nearby object without mechanical contact using the force of an electromagnetic field or infrared rays. The proximity sensor has a longer life span than the contact sensor and its utilization is also high.

Examples of the proximity sensor include a transmission type photoelectric sensor, a direct reflection type photoelectric sensor, a mirror reflection type photoelectric sensor, a high frequency oscillation type proximity sensor, a capacitive proximity sensor, a magnetic proximity sensor, and an infrared proximity sensor. When the touch screen is electrostatic, it is configured to detect the proximity of the pointer by a change of the electric field along the proximity of an object having conductivity (hereinafter, referred to as a pointer). In this case, the touch screen (touch sensor) may be classified as a proximity sensor.

The proximity sensor measures the distance between the sensing object (e.g., a user's finger or a stylus pen) and the sensing surface, which uses a force of the electromagnetic field or infrared rays to apply a touch without mechanical contact.

The stereoscopic touch sensing unit senses the intensity or duration of the touch applied to the touch screen. For example, the stereoscopic touch sensing unit senses a pressure applied to a touch, and when the touch force is strong, recognizes the touch as a touch to an object located further away from the touch screen toward the inside of the terminal.

The ultrasonic sensing unit is configured to recognize the position information of the sensing target using ultrasonic waves.

The ultrasonic sensing unit may include, for example, an optical sensor and a plurality of ultrasonic sensors. The light sensor is configured to sense light, and the ultrasonic sensor is configured to sense ultrasonic waves. Since light is much faster than ultrasonic waves, the time it takes for light to reach the optical sensor is much faster than the time it takes for the ultrasonic waves to reach the ultrasonic sensor. Therefore, it is possible to calculate the position of the wave generating source using the time difference with the time when the ultrasonic wave reaches the reference signal.

The camera sensing unit includes at least one of a camera, a photo sensor, and a laser sensor.

For example, a camera and a laser sensor are combined with each other to sense a touch of a sensing object with respect to a three-dimensional stereoscopic image. When the distance information detected by the laser sensor is added to the two-dimensional image photographed by the camera, three-dimensional information can be obtained.

As another example, a photosensor may be stacked on a display element. The photosensor is configured to scan the movement of the object proximate to the touch screen. More specifically, the photosensor mounts photo diodes and TRs (Transistors) in a row / column and scans the contents loaded on the photosensor using an electrical signal that varies according to the amount of light applied to the photo diode. That is, the photo sensor performs coordinate calculation of the object to be sensed according to the amount of light change, thereby acquiring position information of the object to be sensed.

[ Various command signals or power from the cradle can be operated as a signal for recognizing that the avatar growing display device 200 is correctly mounted on the cradle.

The controller 280 typically controls the overall operation of the avatar growth display 200. [ For example, voice communication, data communication, video communication, and the like. The control unit 280 may include a multimedia module for multimedia playback. The multimedia module may be implemented in the control unit 280 or may be implemented separately from the control unit 280. [

 In addition, the controller 280 may perform a pattern recognition process for recognizing handwriting input or drawing input performed on the touch screen as characters and images, respectively.

In addition, when the state of the avatar growing display device 200 satisfies a set condition, the controller 280 can execute a lock state for restricting input of a user's control command to applications. In addition, the control unit 280 may control the lock screen displayed in the locked state based on the touch input sensed through the display in the locked state.

The power supply unit 290 receives external power and internal power under the control of the controller 280 and supplies power required for operation of the respective components.

The user can select at least one avatar for his or her desired job group. The present invention directly displays whether the user's behavior is positive or negative for the growth of the avatar when the user selects the avatar. This can help you to choose your career path. Also, parents can be provided with relevant information.

The control unit 280 may further include an input request unit 281, an automatic recognition unit 282, and an evaluation unit 283. The user can select a plurality of avatars.

The input requesting unit 281 requests the user to input the input data to the evaluation unit 283 so that the growth evaluation of the avatars displayed on the display is performed. The input requesting unit 281 requests input to the user at regular intervals. For example, a question is displayed on the display asking the user what he / she has done during the day at a predetermined time, what the lesson learned in the lesson, and the like, and the user's response is transmitted to the evaluation unit 283. The input request unit 281 is interlocked with the server. The server requests the user to perform a certain action through the input request unit 281 or sets an item so that the user can answer a specific response. The input request unit 281 281). The evaluation unit 283 may receive the data of the input request unit 281 and perform the primary growth evaluation on the avatar.

The automatic recognition unit 282 collects location information of the user detected through the sensing unit, usage information of the user's application or the Internet, user's motion information, and the like, and transmits the collected information to the evaluation unit 283. Here, the location information of the user can be detected and stored by the time zone. The automatic recognition unit 282 may also detect whether a user is exposed to a harmful environment for adolescents and may collect the results. For example, a user can detect when the user enters or exits a bar, or may detect the user through a mounted sensor when the user is smoking or drinking alcohol. Then, the user can check the activity amount or the like through the gyro sensor or the like constituting the sensing unit, or can detect it if there is no movement for a long time. The evaluation unit 283 may receive the data of the automatic recognition unit 282 and perform second growth evaluation on the avatar.

The evaluation unit 283 receives the data from the input request unit 281 and performs a primary growth evaluation on the growth of the avatar and receives data from the automatic recognition unit 282 to perform a secondary growth evaluation . Then, it is determined whether or not to grow based on past data of the user stored in the server 100 connected to the avatar growing display device 200. At this time, different weights can be given to the primary growth evaluation result and the secondary growth evaluation result.

The results of the growth evaluation are, for example, 55 points or more corresponding to the growth, 45 points or 55 points corresponding to the growth, and 45 points or less corresponding to the degradation when the score is 100 points.

Compared to historical data, a positive change in the assessment factors related to the first and second growth can give a better score.

In addition, even if the results of the first growth evaluation correspond to the growth and the results of the second growth evaluation fall into degeneration, if the second growth evaluation results are weighted more, the growth evaluation result may be finally degraded.

Meanwhile, the avatar growing display device 200 may further include a network unit. The network portion is formed to be connected to the avatar growing display device 200 of another user. Other users can be students of the same age as the user. On the other hand, the user can be the parent and the other user can be the child of the parent.

The third growth evaluation can be performed by receiving the evaluation result from the avatar growing display device 200 of another user. That is, the evaluation unit 283 can evaluate the growth of each of the avatars of the user based on the first to third growth evaluation results.

For example, when a user is a parent, when a child's avatar grows positively, the parent's avatar can also grow positively. Also, if there is a positive change in the evaluation factor associated with a friend when the user is a student and another user is a friend of the same peer, the avatar of the user can also grow positively. This is because peer relationships can be an evaluation factor.

Further, in the growth evaluation result, a positive growth can be achieved for the avatar not selected by the user. At this time, the avatar growing display device 200 generates and provides a new avatar suitable for the user. This allows the user to select a course that is more suitable for him / her.

The evaluation unit 283 extracts information on positive and negative factors in the growth of the avatars, and provides the extracted information to the user or a manager connected to the network. An administrator can be a parent or a teacher. This will encourage the positive growth of the student as a user and manage the negative degeneration of the student.

The user or administrator can select a specific avatar. The positive or negative elements of the selected avatar can be detected through the automatic recognition unit 282. [ At this time, if the sensed value is equal to or more than a predetermined value, the evaluating unit 283 can transmit information according to the numerical value to the avatar growing display device 200 of the administrator via the network. For example, as a parent, you want your child to be a doctor, and you can choose your avatar as a doctor. The user's behavior detected through the automatic recognition unit 282 may be positive or negative. If the sensed value is greater than a predetermined value, the manager can receive the received value and utilize it for management of education and the like.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating an avatar growing process according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 4 and 5 are views showing growth of avatars.

Referring to FIG. 3, the step of collecting evaluation elements is performed first. Collection of the evaluation factors related to the growth of the avatar is based on the input of the user of the avatar growing display device 200 and the values sensed by the various sensors of the avatar growing display device 200. At this time, if the value detected at the time of the evaluation element collection is equal to or greater than a preset value, information about the element can be transmitted to the manager.

For example, it is possible to detect whether there is a negative factor in the environment (alcohol, cigarette, karaoke, etc.) that the user is touching, so that more appropriate education can be achieved. This detection is performed through the sensing unit, and the automatic recognition unit 282 collects the evaluation element results related to the second growth evaluation. Meanwhile, the input requesting unit 281 temporarily or periodically requests input to the user to collect evaluation element results related to the first growth evaluation. In addition, evaluation element results related to the tertiary growth evaluation are also collected, which can utilize the evaluation element results of the avatar growth indicator 200 of other connected users.

The evaluation unit 283 performs primary to tertiary growth evaluations and assigns weights based on the results to perform final growth evaluation. The results of the growth evaluation are, for example, 55 points or more corresponding to the growth, 45 points or 55 points corresponding to the growth, and 45 points or less corresponding to the degradation when the score is 100 points.

If the growth evaluation result corresponds to growth or degradation, the control unit changes the avatar as shown in FIG. 4 or FIG. The avatar may change its size or its shape may change. The avatars can grow or degenerate more. In the growth evaluation result, if there is no growth for a certain period of time, and a positive evaluation of another more suitable avatar is made, a new avatar is created and provided to the user.

The growth evaluation result is transmitted to the terminal of the manager connected to the avatar growing display device 200.
