In the present invention, a preferred type of period in which the user interface corresponding to the inactive area is deactivated is 'Power Mode', 'Sleep Mode' and 'Screen Mode' as shown in FIG. There may be.

A term definition for each mode related to a period during which the user interface is inactivated will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 to 7. 5, 6, and 7 are diagrams for describing the inactive areas formed in the power mode, the sleep mode, and the screen mode, respectively, among the inactive areas of the smart device illustrated in FIG. 4.

The power mode refers to a space time generated as shown in FIG. 5 when the power of the smart device is switched from the off state to the on state or when the power of the smart device is switched from the on state to the off state. For example, the power mode may be a space displayed through the display unit for several seconds for booting when the smart device is turned on.

The sleep mode refers to a space-time occurring as shown in FIG. 6 when the smart device is switched from the inactive mode to the active mode or when the smart device is switched from the active mode to the inactive mode.

For example, a conventional smart phone provides an inactive mode in which power is turned on but operates so that the screen displayed through the display unit is turned off to reduce power consumption. In order to use the smart phone in the inactive mode, the user takes an action such as pressing a specific button, which causes the smart phone to enter the active mode, and the sleep mode displays a user interface such as a lock screen or a main screen. It may be a space displayed through the display unit immediately before.

The screen mode refers to a space time generated as shown in FIG. 7 when an input signal by a user is not received for a preset time in a smart device. In this case, the input signal by the user may be a signal transmitted from another input device connected to the smart device, or may be a signal generated by directly touching a part of the display unit. In addition, the preset time may be changed in the system control unit of the smart device to which the conventionally known technique is applied.

For example, a conventional smart phone provides an inactive mode in which power is turned on but operates so that the screen displayed through the display unit is turned off to reduce power consumption. In the case of a smartphone equipped with an application according to an embodiment of the present invention, the screen mode may be provided using a space displayed through the display unit during the time when the screen is turned off.

In other words, when an inactive area is generated according to the screen mode, the display unit may automatically switch to an optimal brightness and function setting state to minimize power consumption, and when the inactive area according to the screen mode is terminated, (Default) The screen brightness and function settings can be switched automatically.

Whether the smart device according to the present invention is switched to each of the above-described modes and a period in which the user interface is inactive occurs may be checked by the priority control unit 210 or other configuration of the smart device to be described later.

Referring to FIG. 3 again, a detailed configuration of an application 200 mounted in a smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

The priority control unit 210 changes and sets the screen switching priority controlled by the system control unit 120 of the smart device during the period of inactivation as the period in which the user interface is deactivated is checked.

The screen switching priority that is changed and set by the priority control unit 210 of the present invention may include a non-use area designated to be unavailable to the user rather than a screen switching priority related to the utilization area designated to be used by the user in a conventional smart device. Relevant screen switching priorities are targeted.

Also, unlike the conventional launcher skip technology, the priority control unit 210 simply skips the command of the system control unit 120 related to the screen switching setting of the smart device or exits from the loop (OS-Break). This provides an environment in which the user can proactively control the screen switching priorities associated with the period of inactivity of the user interface.

That is, the priority control unit 210 operates to allow the user to proactively change and modify settings related to screen switching, which is forcibly generated by the system control unit 120, so as to utilize the unused area of the existing smart device.

The content processing unit 220 processes the content so that the preset content is displayed on the display unit 110 of the smart device 100 in cooperation with the priority control unit 210 described above, and the control module of the display unit 110. Deliver that content.

The content processor 220 may store the preset content in the smart device 100 and process the same, and download the preset content stored externally for each user in real time by interworking with an external device including a server to be described later. You can also take care of it.

In this case, the type or form of the content is not particularly limited and may be selected by the user, and may be a content advertisement (a gasoline discount, a body management, etc.) and a full-page advertisement as shown in FIGS. 4 to 7. In addition, there may be link data associated with the content, and the content may include additional content corresponding to the link data.

Such content has a predetermined feature, and in connection with the setting method, a setting method of selecting a content by a user of a smart device, an area of interest and a preference of the user from an external device including a server to be described later is analyzed and based on the content. May be applied to the content processor 220. In this case, the content processing unit 220 may check whether the user consents to the collection of personal information so that the user may analyze the region of interest, the preference, and the like.

In addition, the application 200 mounted on the smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include a signal detector 230 and a data processor 240.

The signal detector 230 detects an input signal applied by the user when the content is processed by the content processor 220 such that the content is provided during the period in which the user interface is inactivated, and the priority controller 210 and the content described above. The processor 220 is connected to the data processor 240 to be described later.

In the state where the content processed by the content processor 220 is provided, the signal detector 230 may continuously monitor whether there is an input signal applied by the user.

For example, the signal detecting unit 230 may be configured in the case where the user presses a specific button of the smart device, whether there is an input signal of the user with respect to the display unit to which the direct touch method is applied, or the input signal by touch. Compared to the threshold time, it can detect whether the input signal is a short input signal or a long input signal.

As an embodiment of the input signal, when the input signal sensed by the signal detector 230 is an end signal of a period in which the user interface is inactivated, the priority controller 210 described above may be controlled by the system controller. According to the switching priority, the screen switching priority may be changed and set so that the smart device is driven.

Referring to the second picture of FIG. 6, a content related to body care is provided on a smartphone screen in an inactive area generated by the sleep mode. In this case, for example, when the user touches for a shorter time than the preset threshold time, the signal detector 230 may detect the input signal as an end signal of a period in which the user interface is inactivated, and the priority controller 210 may detect the input signal. The screen operates to control the screen switching priority by the system control unit. As a result, the lock screen is displayed through the display unit of the smart phone to the next screen of the content providing screen according to the present invention, and when the user releases it, the main home screen is displayed (third and fourth pictures of FIG. 6). Specifically, the screen switching priority or the order of displaying the lock screen and the main home screen, which are user interface screens, is controlled by the system controller, and the control of the system controller may be started when the priority is received from the priority controller 210. The control start point by the system controller may be substantially the same as when the end signal detected by the signal detector 230 is transferred to the priority controller 210.

As another embodiment of the input signal, when the input signal sensed by the signal detector 230 is an activation signal for activating link data associated with the content, the above-described content processing unit 220 may add additional content corresponding to the link data. Can be provided to provide.

Referring to the second picture of FIG. 7, a state in which content related to body care is provided through a smart phone screen is displayed in an inactive area generated by the screen mode. At this time, for example, when the user touches a time longer than a predetermined threshold time or touches a specific area such as a text portion or a picture portion of the content, the signal detector 230 activates the link signal associated with the content. The content processing unit 220 may process an additional content corresponding to the link data to be provided. As a result, the homepage screen (one example of additional content) of the company that supplied the content related to the body management to the next screen of the content providing screen according to the present invention may be displayed through the display unit of the smart phone.

In addition, the data processor 240 transmits the collection data related to the content processed and provided by the content processor 220 described above in the application 200 to a server to be described later.

The data processing unit 240 mainly deals with what content has been displayed through the inactive area generated according to which mode on which smart device, and for how long the content can be grasped based on the content display start time and display end time. Data may be collected, and the collected data or statistically processed data may be transmitted to the server in real time or at predetermined time intervals using a communication module mounted in the smart device.

By using the smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention including the above-described configuration, it is possible to change and set the screen switching priority associated with the inactive area that cannot be utilized in the conventional smart device. The advantage is that the usable area can be expanded.

In addition, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide content such as advertisement in the unused area while changing and setting the screen switching priority controlled by the conventional system controller, thereby creating a new advertisement area as well as creating the new advertisement area. The user may provide content in which the user's preferences or interests are reflected in the designated area.

Through this, each user of the smart device can be a subject actively providing content, and the communication cost of the user can be reduced as much as the advertisement transmission cost calculated based on the content displayed in the new creation area.

On the other hand, a server for transmitting and receiving data with a smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 8 is a block diagram illustrating a server for transmitting and receiving data with a smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The server 800 includes a data manager 810 and a data provider 820, and includes a wired / wireless communication unit (not shown) for transmitting and receiving data with a smart device using a network. Here, the network may be a wired or mobile radio network or satellite communication network such as a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), or a value added network (VAN). It can be implemented in all kinds of wireless networks such as.

The data manager 810 stores and manages the collection data related to the above contents from a smart device equipped with an application that executes preset content during a period in which the user interface displayed through the display unit of the smart device is deactivated.

The data manager 810 may include a database that stores and manages collection data related to preset content, and may classify and store collection data received from each smart device.

The data provider 820 provides data related to the provider of the content among the collected data stored and managed by the data manager 810 to the provider terminal.

In this case, the contents comprehensively managed and processed by the server 800 are preset by the user or by an analysis result of the user's taste or preference, and are provided through the display unit of the smart device by the content processing unit of the above-described application.

9 is a schematic diagram illustrating a PSA service using a smart device and a server for transmitting and receiving data with the smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The Personal Signage Advertisement (PSA) service includes an individual or an organization 910 using a smart device 912, a server 920 for transmitting and receiving data with the smart device 912, and the like. There may be an advertiser 930 that exchanges data or information with the server 920.

The person or organization 910 has a smart device 912 loaded with an application that provides content for a period of time during which the user interface is inactive. The individual or group 910 may provide a certain level of personal / group information to the server 920 after signing a user contract with the server 920 and registering a user with a predetermined fee, and the server 920 may Using the provided personal / group information, content such as an advertisement to be provided to the smart device 912 may be analyzed using the database 922 or the like.

The server 920 may transmit the analyzed content to a non-use area of the smart device 912 according to the present invention to collect content usage patterns or advertisement effects of users, and in the case of an individual or a group 910 By providing a certain space time in the own smart device 912 to the server 920 side, the communication cost can be reduced by the cost calculated based on the above contents. In addition, since the content reflects information such as age, gender, region, and hobbies of the individual 910, or reflects the nature, purpose of establishment, etc. of the group 910, the content can be viewed more efficiently to the user.

The advertiser 930 may request advertisement registration and provide content such as advertisement, paying a predetermined fee to the server 920 side. The server 920 provides the advertiser 930 with collected data or usage statistics data collected from an individual or an organization 910, and based on the frequency of displaying the content in the inactive area of the smart device 912, etc. 930 may be charged.

By using the PSA service using the smart device and the server for transmitting and receiving data with the smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention, the individual or group 910 can reduce the communication cost while utilizing the unused area. . Advertiser 930 can not only more accurately analyze the usage statistics or the degree of effect on the content, such as advertisements provided by the advertiser, but also provide the user's taste-based content to the user to enhance the effect of the advertisement. There is this.

In other words, the user of the smart device equipped with the above-described application through the present invention deviates from the existing passive supplier position, and proactively provides the desired content to the inactive area corresponding to the period in which the user interface is deactivated. To be in an active position.

Meanwhile, a method of driving a smart device according to each embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 10 to 12.

10 is a flowchart illustrating a method of driving a smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The method of driving a smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a process of executing an application for providing preset content during a period in which a user interface displayed through the display unit of the smart device is inactivated (S1010). As described above, the application may be mounted at the time of initial production of the smart device, or may be downloaded and mounted through a network.

In the present invention, the process of checking whether a user interface is deactivated occurs or not (S1020). Such a monitoring process may be performed by the priority control unit of the application or the internal component of the smart device.

Thereafter, as the user interface is deactivated, the priority control unit of the application changes and sets the screen switching priority controlled by the system control unit of the smart device (S1030). Here, the screen switching priority is related to the non-use area of the smart device, and the screen control itself may be modified by the priority control unit, unlike the screen switching by the system control unit.

In step S1040, the content processing unit of the application linked with the priority control unit processes the preset content. In this case, the content is a concept including an advertisement, and may be set in advance by a result analyzed by the user or from an external device including a server to reflect the user's taste. This preset content is processed to be provided in a period during which the user interface is deactivated by the content processing unit.

11 is a flowchart illustrating a method of driving a smart device according to another embodiment of the present invention.

A method of driving a smart device according to another embodiment of the present invention includes a process of executing an application for providing preset content during a period in which a user interface displayed through the display unit of the smart device is inactivated (S1110).

In the present invention, a process of determining whether to use the period of time when the user interface is inactive may be determined (S1120), which may be included because the user may not want to utilize the inactive area. .

Thereafter, the present invention goes through a process of checking whether or not a period in which the user interface is inactivated occurs.

Specifically, it may be checked (first check) whether the power of the smart device is switched from the off state to the on state or if the power is switched from the on state to the off state (S1132). If not applicable, it may be checked (second check) whether the smart device is switched from the inactive mode to the active mode or if the smart device is switched from the active mode to the inactive mode (S1134). If there is no corresponding item in the second check process, it may be checked (third check) whether the input signal by the user does not receive for a preset time in the smart device (S1136).

In this case, if any one of the check results of the first, second or third checks is applicable, this may be interpreted as the occurrence of a period during which the user interface is deactivated. That is, the inactive area generated by any one of the 'power mode', the 'sleep mode' or the 'screen mode' is generated. If the above period of inactivity occurs, the priority control unit may change and set the screen switching priority controlled by the system control unit (S1144), thereby expanding the inactive area to the available area.

If none of the check results of the first, second or third checks apply, this may be interpreted as no occurrence of a period during which the user interface is deactivated. That is, since the inactive area itself has not occurred, the priority control unit changes and sets the screen switching priority so that the screen switching priority is controlled by the system controller as before, so that the entire smart device is driven (S1142). In addition, the internal configuration of the priority control unit or the smart device may continuously check whether or not a period during which the user interface is inactivated occurs.

The content processing unit of the application linked with the priority control unit also goes through a process of processing the preset content (S1150). In this case, the content is a concept including an advertisement, and may be set in advance by a result analyzed by the user or from an external device including a server to reflect the user's taste. This preset content is processed to be provided in a period during which the user interface is deactivated by the content processing unit.

Thereafter, the present invention may include a process of transmitting, by the data processor, the collected data related to the above-described content to the server (S1160). Here, the collected data may be collected with a separate identification number for each smart device, and information about the time when the content is displayed through the display unit of the smart device, the type and type of the set content, and whether the content is selected or not is provided. It may include.

In addition, FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating a case in which an input signal detected by a user is added in the driving method of the smart device illustrated in FIG. 11.

Referring to FIG. 12, the content processor of the application interworking with the priority controller also processes the preset content (S1250).

When the content processing unit processes the content to be provided as described above, the signal detection unit of the application goes through a process of detecting an input signal applied by the user (S1260). In this case, the input signal may be generated by pressing a button on the smart device, may be directly applied through a display unit, or may be distinguished according to the long and short of the input signal.

At this time, when the input signal of the end signal of the period in which the user interface is inactive is detected (S1272), the priority control unit changes and sets the screen switching priority so that the smart device is driven according to the screen switching priority controlled by the system controller. (S1274).

In addition, when an input signal of an activation signal for activating link data associated with the content is detected (S1276), the content processing unit processes to provide additional content corresponding to the link data (S1278).

Thereafter, the present invention may include a process of transmitting, by the data processor, the collected data related to the above-described content to the server (S1280).

Through the method of driving a smart device according to each embodiment of the present invention described above, the screen switching priority related to the inactive area, which could not be utilized in a conventional smart device, can be changed and set, Since the same content can be provided, not only the area available for use by the user can be expanded, but also the content reflecting the user's preference or interest level can be provided in the created area.

The foregoing description of the present invention is intended for illustration, and it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention may be easily modified in other specific forms without changing the technical spirit or essential features of the present invention. will be. It is therefore to be understood that the above-described embodiments are illustrative in all aspects and not restrictive.
