Description
The present invention relates to a terminal and a control method thereof.
A terminal can be divided into a mobile terminal (mobile / portable terminal) and a stationary terminal according to whether the terminal can be moved. The mobile terminal can be divided into a handheld terminal and a vehicle mount terminal according to whether the user can directly carry the mobile terminal.
Such a terminal has various functions, for example, in the form of a multimedia device having multiple functions such as photographing and photographing of a moving picture, reproduction of a music or video file, reception of a game and broadcasting, etc. .
A liquid crystal display (LCD) screen for displaying a moving picture, a picture, a web browser for accessing the Internet, and the like is becoming larger.
On the other hand, when the terminal is dropped due to carelessness of the terminal user during use of the terminal, or when an impact due to external pressure or the like is applied, the panel may be damaged. If the panel is broken, the screen of the corresponding part can not display the object or the user can not input the input in the case of the touch screen.
Accordingly, if the terminal can not display a part of the screen or can not input user input, the terminal may have inconvenience due to the inability to use the terminal temporarily.
The present invention provides a terminal and a control method thereof for continuously using a terminal by adjusting a user input area even when a screen of the terminal is partially damaged and a bad pixel occurs or a user can not input.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a terminal control method comprising the steps of: detecting damage to a display unit from a sensing area corresponding to an outer circumferential surface of a display unit; Checking an area where the display unit damage is detected from the sensing area; Displaying the identified damaged display area to be distinguished from an undamaged display area; Generating a control key for user input; And displaying the generated control key on a display area other than the damaged display area.
Various embodiments of the present invention allow a user to easily control a window even in an environment where there is no external input device such as a keyboard or a mouse.
According to the embodiment of the present invention, the user can continuously and easily use the terminal through the variable of the user input and the display area variable even in a situation where the screen of the terminal is partially damaged and can not be used.

The broadcast channel may include a satellite channel and a terrestrial channel. The broadcast management server may refer to a server for generating and transmitting broadcast signals and / or broadcast related information, or a server for receiving broadcast signals and / or broadcast related information generated by the broadcast management server and transmitting the generated broadcast signals and / or broadcast related information. The broadcast signal may include a TV broadcast signal, a radio broadcast signal, a data broadcast signal, and a broadcast signal in which a data broadcast signal is combined with a TV broadcast signal or a radio broadcast signal.
The broadcast-related information may refer to a broadcast channel, a broadcast program, or information related to a broadcast service provider. The broadcast-related information may also be provided through a mobile communication network. In this case, it may be received by the mobile communication module 112.
The broadcast-related information may exist in various forms. For example, an EPG (Electronic Program Guide) of DMB (Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) or an ESG (Electronic Service Guide) of Digital Video Broadcast-Handheld (DVB-H).
For example, the

Referring to FIG. 1, a proximity sensor 141 may be disposed in an inner region of the mobile terminal or in the vicinity of the touch screen, which is surrounded by the touch screen. The proximity sensor 141 refers to a sensor that detects the presence of an object approaching a predetermined detection surface or an object existing in the vicinity of the detection surface without mechanical contact using an electromagnetic force or an infrared ray. The proximity sensor 141 has a longer life than the contact type sensor and its utilization is also high.
Examples of the proximity sensor 141 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. And to detect the proximity of the pointer by the change of the electric field along the proximity of the pointer when the touch screen is electrostatic. In this case, the touch screen (touch sensor) may be classified as a proximity sensor.
Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, the act of recognizing that the pointer is positioned on the touch screen while the pointer is not in contact with the touch screen is referred to as "proximity touch" The act of actually touching the pointer on the screen is called "contact touch. &Quot; The position where the pointer is proximately touched on the touch screen means a position where the pointer is vertically corresponding to the touch screen when the pointer is touched.
The proximity sensor detects a proximity touch and a proximity touch pattern (e.g., a proximity touch distance, a proximity touch direction, a proximity touch speed, a proximity touch time, a proximity touch position, a proximity touch movement state, and the like). Information corresponding to the detected proximity touch operation and the proximity touch pattern may be output on the touch screen.
