Next, after the card object creation is completed, the home screen can be displayed. In particular, a home screen including the generated card object can be displayed immediately.

FIG. 10I illustrates that the home screen 904 including the card object 1007 that has been created is displayed. Accordingly, the user can create a desired card object and display it.

On the other hand, at the time of creating the card object shown in Figs. 10A to 10I, the icon 1033 related to the user of the card object to be generated may be an icon based on the user image, which is photographed by the user. For example, a user is photographed through the camera 195, the user's face area is extracted from the photographed images, and an icon 1033 related to the user of the card object is automatically Can be generated.

On the other hand, as another example, the icon 1033 related to the user of the card object to be generated may be set by selection of any one of the icons in the separate icon list.

On the other hand, at the time of creating the card object, it is also possible to set the permission setting for the application item added in the card object 1030 to be generated. For example, with respect to the first application item 1017 shown in FIG. 10F, a right is set so that all users can be identified, and for the second application item 1019 shown in FIG. 10F, It is possible to set the authority so that only the user can confirm. Alternatively, when the second application item 1019 is executed, a lock function such as a password input and a user face photographing may be set. Accordingly, only the content item can be added to the generated card object, and the usability of the user can be increased.

On the other hand, it is possible to delete the application item added in the card object 1030 to be generated when the card object is created.

For example, as shown in FIG. 10J, the application item 1019 added in the card object 1030 to be generated can be selected using the pointer 205 indicating the motion of the remote control device. In the drawing, it is exemplified that a selection window provided in the corresponding application item 1019 is activated.

On the other hand, the deletion of the application item in the card object 1030 to be generated can also be performed by dragging and dropping using a pointer. That is, when the selected application item 1019 is dragged to the outer area of the card object 1030 to be generated, the application item deletion can be performed.

9A to 10K illustrate the selection of an object or the like by using the pointer 205 indicating the motion of the remote control device 200, but the present invention is not limited to this, and various modifications are possible.

For example, an object or the like can be selected by using the direction key and the confirmation key of the remote control device 200. [ As another example, an object or the like can be selected corresponding to a user gesture based on a captured image of a user photographed through the camera 195. [ As another example, it is possible to recognize a user's voice and select an object or the like based on the recognized voice contents.

For example, the image display apparatus 100 can display a hand pointer 506 corresponding to the hand 505 of the user 1104, based on a captured image of a user photographed through the camera 195 have.

When the hand operation of the user 1104 corresponds to a tap operation gesture for selecting a specific application item in the application list while the home screen as shown in Fig. 10I is displayed, it is determined that the application item is selected . It is also possible to sequentially select a plurality of application items. In the drawing, five application items are selected by the user's tap gesture.

Next, as shown in FIG. 10M, when the user takes a grip gesture for gripping a fist and then takes a gesture to move to the left, the image display device 100 displays the captured image of the user photographed through the camera 195 The selected five application items can be grouped by the grip gesture and added to the card object 1030 to be shifted left, that is, by the left movement gesture. Thereby, a plurality of items can be moved simply.

As another example, the remote control device 200 having a microphone (not shown) can receive the voice of the user and transmit it to the video display device 100.

10n illustrates the use of multi-input means to add a plurality of application items into a card object 1030 to be created.

First, when five application items are selected by using the direction key of the remote control device and the user outputs a voice 508 "Put selected contents into a card object", the remote control device 200 , And the voice 508 may be collected and transmitted to the image display apparatus 100. The video display apparatus 100 can analyze user voice contents and recognize five application item movement commands through the voice recognition function.

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 10N, into the card object 1030 to be generated, five application items can be moved and displayed.

As described above, in addition to the pointer of the remote control device, the instruction such as selection for the video display device can be a direction key and a confirmation key, a user gesture, a user voice, and the like. Hereinafter, the pointer indicating the movement of the remote control device will be mainly described, but the direction key and the confirmation key, the user gesture, the user voice, and the like will be expandable as described above.

On the other hand, Figs. 10A to 10N describe the generation of a card object. At this time, various types of card objects can be generated.

For example, as shown in FIG. 9H, it is possible that a home network card object indicating the connection state of the adjacent electronic device providing the shared content is generated. Such a home network card object may include an electronic device list 971c connected to the video display device 100 and an electronic device list 971d not connected to the video display device 100, as shown in Fig. 9H.

As another example, it is possible to simultaneously monitor a plurality of electronic devices and generate an integrated electronic device control card object that can be remotely controlled. Such a card object can be displayed on a card object to monitor and remotely control the home appliance devices such as a refrigerator, a washing machine, an air conditioner, a cooking device, a TV, and the like.

On the other hand, each generated card object is a card object for each user and can be viewed only by the user. This will be described with reference to Figs. 11A to 11E.

11A illustrates that the first user 1103 uses the video display device 100 in which the home screen 900 is displayed. The camera 190 of the image display apparatus 100 photographs a user and transmits the photographed user image 1106 to the control unit 170.

On the other hand, the control unit 170 can provide individual home screens according to the logged-in user. That is, as shown in FIG. 11B, the card object 1150 generated by the first user can be displayed in the home screen.

The card object 1150 generated by the first user includes an icon 1152 related to the user of the card object to be generated, a card object name 1153, an object 1154 for content setting, And a content list 1155 to be displayed.

On the other hand, the control unit 170 can control the logged-in user to display a recent execution card object, which is a collection of recently used contents, for the user. That is, without generating a separate card object, it is possible to automatically generate and display a recent execution card object representing recently used contents.

FIG. 11B illustrates this recent card object 1160. The recent card object 1160 includes an icon 1162 related to the user, a card object name 1163, an object 1164 for content setting, and a content list 1165 including recently executed content items ).

Meanwhile, the card object 1150 and the latest execution card object 1160 generated by the first user illustrated in FIG. 11B are card objects provided after the first user's login, and other modifications are possible.

For example, the card object 1150 generated by the first user is provided after the login of the first user, but the latest execution card object 1160 can also be displayed regardless of the login of the first user .

That is, it may be a recent execution card object that includes all recently executed content items of all users, not only the latest execution contents of only the first user. In this case, the latest execution card object can be displayed in the home screen when used by all users regardless of whether or not they are logged in.

Next, FIG. 11C illustrates that the second user 1104 uses the image display apparatus 100 in which the first user is logged in.

In this case, the camera 190 of the image display apparatus 100 photographs the second user and delivers the photographed user image 1106 to the control unit 170. The control unit 170 compares the image stored in the storage unit 140 and the user image 1106 to perform a second user recognition.

The home screen 907 of FIG. 11D may include a card object 1170 generated by a second user.

The card object 1170 generated by the second user includes an icon 1172 related to the user of the card object to be generated, a card object name 1173, an object 1174 for content setting, And a content list 1175 that is a content list.

On the other hand, although not shown in the drawing, the control unit 170 may control the logged-in second user to display a recently executed card object in which recently used contents are collected.

Next, FIG. 11E illustrates multiple logins for multiple users.

For example, when the second user 1104 uses the image display apparatus 100 in which the first user 1103 logs in, the second user 1104 immediately logs in without login of the new user in Fig. It is possible to do. That is, it is also possible that multiple logins are performed.

Thus, as shown in FIG. 11E, it is possible to display the card object 1150 generated by the first user and the card object 1170 generated by the second user together in the home screen.

On the other hand, FIG. 11E illustrates that an icon 1113 indicating the logged-in first user 1103 and an icon 1114 indicating the logged-in second user 1104 are displayed together in the home screen.

On the other hand, when each card object is displayed together with the multiple log-in, when the common content exists in each card object, the common content item can be highlighted and displayed. Such a highlight function corresponds to the content recommendation, and by recommending the contents of common interest of the two users, the usability of the user can be increased.

On the other hand, at the time of multi-login, unlike Fig. 11E, it is possible to display one common card object. The common card object at this time may include both the content item in the card object 1150 generated by the first user and the content item in the card object 1170 generated by the second user, It is also possible that the item is highlighted and displayed. Or alternatively, a common card object may include only a common content item.

Next, FIG. 11C illustrates that the second user 1104 uses the image display apparatus 100 in which the first user is logged in.

In this case, the camera 190 of the image display apparatus 100 photographs the second user and delivers the photographed user image 1106 to the control unit 170. The control unit 170 compares the image stored in the storage unit 140 and the user image 1106 to perform a second user recognition.

At this time, since the first user has already been logged in, the control unit 170 informs that another user is logged in, and can control to display a message 1162 indicating whether to perform login again as shown in the figure. If a new login input execution item 1164 is selected, the control unit 170 performs login for the second user that has been recognized.

On the other hand, the login can be performed based on at least one of the captured user image, password input, or user voice recognition. The user's voice can be acquired through a microphone provided in the remote control device 200. [

When log-in is performed, the image display apparatus 100 can display an icon indicating the logged-in second user.
