Representative sensors among various sensors that may be included in the sensing unit 140 will be described in more detail.
First, the proximity sensor 141 refers to a sensor that detects the presence of an object approaching a predetermined detection surface, or the presence of an object in the vicinity of the detection surface, without mechanical contact by using electromagnetic force or infrared rays. The proximity sensor 141 may be disposed in the inner area of the mobile terminal or in proximity to the touch screen, which is covered by the touch screen.
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. In the case where the touch screen is electrostatic, the proximity sensor 141 can be configured to detect the proximity of the object with a change of the electric field along the proximity of the object having conductivity. In this case, the touch screen (or touch sensor) itself may be classified as a proximity sensor.
On the other hand, for convenience of explanation, the act of recognizing that the object is located on the touch screen in proximity with no object touching the touch screen is referred to as "proximity touch & The act of actually touching an object on the screen is called a "contact touch. &Quot; The position at which the object is closely touched on the touch screen means a position where the object corresponds to the touch screen vertically when the object is touched. The proximity sensor 141 can detect 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, have. Meanwhile, the control unit 180 processes data (or information) corresponding to the proximity touch operation and the proximity touch pattern sensed through the proximity sensor 141 as described above, and further provides visual information corresponding to the processed data It can be output on the touch screen. Furthermore, the control unit 180 can control the mobile terminal 100 such that different operations or data (or information) are processed according to whether the touch to the same point on the touch screen is a proximity touch or a touch touch .
The touch sensor senses a touch (or touch input) applied to the touch screen (or the display unit 151) by using at least one of various touch methods such as a resistance film type, a capacitive type, an infrared type, an ultrasonic type, do.
For example, the touch sensor may be configured to convert a change in a pressure applied to a specific portion of the touch screen or a capacitance generated in a specific portion to an electrical input signal. The touch sensor may be configured to detect a position, an area, a pressure at the time of touch, a capacitance at the time of touch, and the like where a touch object touching the touch screen is touched on the touch sensor. 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.
Thus, when 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 controller 180. Thus, the control unit 180 can know which area of the display unit 151 is touched or the like. Here, the touch controller may be a separate component from the control unit 180, and may be the control unit 180 itself.
On the other hand, the control unit 180 may perform different controls or perform the same control according to the type of the touch object touching the touch screen (or a touch key provided on the touch screen). Whether to perform different controls or to perform the same control according to the type of the touch object may be determined according to the current state of the mobile terminal 100 or an application program being executed.

Touch can be sensed.
The ultrasonic sensor can recognize the position information of the object to be sensed by using ultrasonic waves. Meanwhile, the controller 180 can calculate the position of the wave generating source through the information sensed by the optical sensor and the plurality of ultrasonic sensors. The position of the wave source can be calculated using the fact that the light is much faster than the ultrasonic wave, that is, the time when the light reaches the optical sensor is much faster than the time the ultrasonic wave reaches the ultrasonic sensor. More specifically, the position of the wave generating source can be calculated using the time difference with the time when the ultrasonic wave reaches the reference signal.
The camera 121 includes at least one of a camera sensor (for example, a CCD, a CMOS, etc.), a photo sensor (or an image sensor), and a laser sensor.

The photosensor can be laminated to the display element, which is adapted to scan the movement of the object to be detected 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 change of light, and position information of the object to be sensed can be obtained through the calculation.

The main body 301 includes a case that forms an appearance. As shown, the case may include a first case 301a and a second case 301b that provide an internal space for accommodating various electronic components. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and one case may be configured to provide the internal space, so that a mobile terminal 300 of a unibody may be realized.
The wearable mobile terminal 300 is configured to allow wireless communication, and the main body 301 may include an antenna for the wireless communication. On the other hand, the antenna can expand its performance by using a case. For example, a case including a conductive material may be configured to electrically connect with the antenna to extend the ground or radiating area.
A display unit 351 is disposed on a front surface of the main body 301 to output information, and a touch sensor is provided on the display unit 351 to implement a touch screen. The window 351a of the display unit 351 may be mounted on the first case 301a to form a front surface of the terminal body together with the first case 301a.
The main body 301 may include an acoustic output unit 352, a camera 321, a microphone 322, a user input unit 323, and the like. When the display unit 351 is implemented as a touch screen, the display unit 351 may function as a user input unit 323, so that the main body 301 may not have a separate key.
The band 302 is worn on the wrist so as to surround the wrist and can be formed of a flexible material for easy wearing. As an example, the band 302 may be formed of leather, rubber, silicone, synthetic resin, or the like. In addition, the band 302 is detachably attached to the main body 301, and can be configured to be replaceable with various types of bands according to the user's preference.
On the other hand, the band 302 can be used to extend the performance of the antenna. For example, the band may include a ground extension (not shown) that is electrically connected to the antenna and extends the ground region.
The band 302 may be provided with a fastener 302a. The fastener 302a may be embodied by a buckle, a snap-fit hook structure, or a velcro (trademark), and may include a stretchable section or material . In this drawing, an example in which the fastener 302a is embodied as a buckle is shown.
In addition, the band 302 may be provided with a plurality of holes 302b. Each of the holes 302b may be implemented in the form of a square, a circle, or the like. At least one of the plurality of holes 302b may be engaged with the fastener 302a.
Each of the holes 302b implemented in the band 302 may include a sensor capable of sensing a state of engagement with the fastener 302a.
For example, the sensor provided in the hole 302b may sense a change in the current flowing in the band 302. FIG. When the fastener 302a formed of a conductor is coupled to at least one of the plurality of holes 302a, the sensor can sense a change in the state of a current flowing in the band 302 and detect a coupled hole.
Meanwhile, the band 302 may include a sensor for sensing an external force. More specifically, the sensor may sense that a pressure above a predetermined reference is applied to the band 302.
In addition, the band 302 may include a band coupling portion 302c. The band coupling portion 302c can bind the first band and the second band of the band 302 in a state where at least one of the plurality of holes 302a is coupled with the fastener 302a.
More specifically, the band coupling portion 302c can move from the first position to the second position of the band 302 to bind the first band and the second band. That is, the band coupling portion 302c may be formed so as to surround the band 302. As the band coupling portion 302c moves from the first position to the second position, the band coupling portion 302c 2c may surround the first and second bands.
In addition, the band coupling portion 302c may include at least one sensor. For example, the at least one sensor may be configured to sense touch, pressure, and / or motion applied to the band coupling unit 302c. That is, the at least one sensor may include at least one of a proximity sensor, an illuminance sensor, an acceleration sensor, a motion sensor, an RGB sensor, an infrared sensor, a fingerprint recognition sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, and an optical sensor.
Thus, the sensor provided in the band coupling unit 302c can sense whether or not the band coupling unit 302c binds the band. In addition, the sensor can detect information related to the user's skin surface or blood vessel array in the course of moving to bind the band. In addition, the sensor can sense the moving direction of the band coupling part 302c. In addition, the sensor may sense a user gesture applied to the band edge 302c.
The wearable mobile terminal 300 includes a control unit 380 and the control unit 380 may include the features of the control unit 180 shown in Figs.
Meanwhile, as mentioned above, the control unit 180 (see FIG. 1A) can control the functions of the terminal using the band of the terminal.
As one of such control methods, the present invention defines a plurality of input forms using a band, and a method of controlling the operation of the display unit 351 using the input form is presented. Hereinafter, a method of controlling functions of the watch-type mobile terminal using a band will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
For convenience of explanation, the bands are divided into a first band and a second band which are connected to each other by the fastener 302a. Further, the band 302 described with reference to FIG. 1D in the sense of a portion including the first band and the second band will be referred to as a band portion 302 hereinafter. Further, in this specification, the first band is described by using the reference numeral 303 and the second band is described by using the reference numeral 304. [ Further, for the contents that can be applied to both the first band and the second band without the need to distinguish between the first band and the second band, the "band portion 302" ".
A flowchart representing the control method of the present invention will be described below. In addition, FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B will be described with reference to FIG. 2, and an embodiment of a wearable type mobile terminal that performs first and second authentication using the band portion shown in FIG. 2 will be described.
First, the control unit 380 of the wearable device 300 can detect a hole coupled with the fastener 302a among the plurality of holes 302b (S201).
More specifically, the control unit 380 can detect the information associated with the state in which the first band 303 and the second band 304 are combined, by detecting the combined holes.
In addition, when at least one of the plurality of holes 302b of the second band 304 is coupled with the fastener 302a of the first band 303, the control unit 380 controls the sensor provided in the at least one hole, Using the sensed information in the combined holes.
That is, the memory of the wearable type terminal 300 may store the identification information of the holes set for each hole including the band portion. In addition, the controller 380 can select the identification information of the combined hole among the stored identification information.
Meanwhile, in the state where the hole 302b of the band portion 302 and the fastener 302a are separated from each other, the wearable type terminal 300 includes a slip (not shown) for deactivating most components, such as the display portion 351, Mode (sleep).
Even when the wearable type terminal 300 is driven in the sleep mode, the sensor disposed in the hole is activated to always detect the engagement state of the hole and the fastener. That is, the sensor disposed in the hole may be always on-state while power is supplied to the control unit.
Alternatively, the remaining sensors may be deactivated in the sleep mode except for the sensor disposed in the hole. In this case, when predetermined information is sensed by the sensor disposed in the hole, the control unit 380 can activate the sensors other than the sensor disposed in the hole.
As another example, a sensor disposed in the band portion can be activated only when there is input of a user applied to another portion in a deactivated state. As an example, when the terminal senses a touch input (for example, a first tapping and a second tapping) continuously applied to the display portion 351 at intervals, the sensor disposed in the band portion can be activated. As another example, if a push input is applied to a separate physical key included in the terminal, the sensor disposed in the band portion can be activated.
Next, the controller 380 can perform the first authentication based on the detected result (S202).
More specifically, the control unit 380 can perform the first authentication by comparing the identification information of the detected hole with predetermined authentication information. The predetermined authentication information may include identification information of at least one hole among a plurality of holes 302b provided in the band unit 302. [
In addition, the controller 380 may compare the identification information of the associated holes with the identification information of the stored holes to perform the first authentication. If the identification information of the combined hole matches the identification information of the stored hole, the controller 380 can determine that the first authentication is successful.
3A, when the fastener 302a is coupled to the first hole of the plurality of holes 302b, the controller 380 can determine that the first authentication is successful (step < RTI ID = 0.0 > .
In this case, the control unit 380 may output the information 310 related to the first authentication to the display unit 351. More specifically, the information 310 related to the first authentication may include user information corresponding to the first authentication. For example, the user information corresponding to the first authentication may include information related to a user's ID, name, and the like.
If the first authentication fails, the controller 380 may perform the second authentication using the user input to the display unit 351 (S203).
More specifically, the control unit 380 can determine that the first authentication has failed if the identification information of the detected hall does not match the predetermined authentication information.
If the first authentication fails, the controller 380 may output a guide screen to guide the user to input the input. Also, the controller 380 can perform the second authentication using the user input on the guide screen output to the display unit 351.
For example, the control unit 380 may compare the password information with the password input by using the password input by the user applied to the display unit 351, and perform the second authentication.
In this regard, referring to FIG. 3A, when the second hole and the fastener 302a of the plurality of holes 302b are coupled, the controller 380 can determine that the first authentication has failed.
If the first authentication fails, the controller 380 may output a guide screen 320 to guide the user to input the input.
For example, the guide screen 320 may include an input window for receiving a password.
In this regard, referring to FIG. 3B, various embodiments of the guide screen 320 are shown.
As shown in FIG. 3 (b), the guide screen 320 may include a password input window. For example, the password input window may receive a password input formed by a combination of 4 digits and text.
Also, as shown in FIG. 3B, the guide screen 320 may include a keypad including a plurality of numeric information. In this case, the guide screen 320 can receive a password input by the user. Also, the guide screen 320 can receive a user's pattern input.
In this case, the control unit 380 can perform the second authentication using the password or pattern information applied to the guide screen 320. [
In addition, as shown in FIG. 3 (c), the guide screen 320 can guide the user's fingerprint information.
In this case, if the user's finger touches the guide screen 320, the display unit 351 can scan the fingerprint information of the contacted finger. The control unit 380 can perform the second authentication using the scanned fingerprint information.
Meanwhile, although not shown in FIG. 3B, the controller 380 may perform the second authentication using the user input applied to the band unit.
As described above, the band portion 302 includes a first band 303 and a second band 304 that are connected to both sides of the body, respectively, and a plurality of regions are defined by the fastening. The first band 303 is connected to one end (upper end) of the main body, the second band 304 is connected to the other end (lower end) of the main body, is fastened to each other by the fastener 302a for being worn on the wrist, At the same time, they can be separated from each other. However, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this, and the functions described below may be applied to a case where the first band is connected to the lower end and the second band is connected to the upper end.
The plurality of regions may include a first region, a second region, and a third region. A first region is formed in the first band 303 and a second region is formed in the second band 304 and the third region is formed by the first band 303 and the second band 304 It can be an area overlapping each other.
More specifically, the first region may be a region excluding the third region in the first band 303, and the second region may be a region excluding the third region in the second band 304 . The band portion may be formed to be adjustable in length when worn on the wrist.
However, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this, and the third region may be defined as an area where the first band 303 and the second band 304 are connected to each other, for example. For example, the third region may be an area that connects the ends of the first band 303 and the second band 304 so as to be engaged with each other.
In addition, a double band portion may be formed by overlapping or connecting the first band 303 and the second band 304, and the sensing portion may be configured to sense a user input applied to the dual band portion.
Hereinafter, the third region exemplifies only the region where the first band 303 and the second band 304 overlap with each other, but in the illustrated embodiments, the third region includes the above- Or a double-band portion.
In this case, the sizes of the first region, the second region and the third region may be varied by the length adjustment. The size (or width) of the first region, the second region, and the third region may be changed corresponding to the length adjustment.
In this regard, the controller 380 may perform at least one of the first and second authentication according to an area to which the user input is applied among the plurality of areas. That is, the controller can determine whether the user authentication is successful according to which of the first area, the second area, and the third area the input of the same type (e.g., short touch) is detected.
Also, the control unit can perform at least one of the first and second authentication according to whether any type of input (e.g., short touch, long touch, drag, bending, skip) is detected in the same area.
In addition, the control unit 380 may control the display unit 351 using at least one of the first and second authentication (S204).
3A, when the first authentication is successful, the control unit 380 displays the display 310 including the authenticated user information on the display unit 351 (step < RTI ID = 0.0 > Can be controlled.
Meanwhile, if the first authentication fails, the controller 380 may output the guide screen 320 related to the second authentication to perform the second authentication different from the first authentication. That is, the control unit 380 may output the guide screen 320 to receive a predetermined user input for user authentication.
Also, when the second authentication is successful, the controller 380 can convert the guide screen 320 output for performing the second authentication to the screen 310 including the authenticated user information.
Meanwhile, if the first authentication fails and the second authentication fails, the controller 380 may control the display unit to output a screen (not shown) including information related to authentication failure.
In addition, when the first and second authentication fail, the controller 380 can output alarm information of a predetermined type. For example, the predetermined type of alarm information may be related to visual, auditory, tactile, or the like. In addition, the controller 380 may control the length of the band portion or the lock state when the first and second authentication fail. For example, when both of the first and second authentication fail, the controller 380 can control the length of the band part or prevent the band part from being unblocked by an external force.
In the following FIG. 3C, the first authentication is performed when the first band and the second band of the band part included in the wearable type mobile terminal proposed in the present invention are combined.
3C, when at least one of the plurality of holes 302b is coupled with the fastener 302a and the band coupling portion 302c binds the first and second bands, the controller 180 May perform the first authentication.
More specifically, when the band coupling portion 302c moves to a predetermined position to bind the first and second bands in a state where the fastener 302a and the specific hole are engaged, the control portion 180 controls the first Authentication can be performed.
On the other hand, when the band coupling unit 302c moves by a predetermined distance to bind the first and second bands, the sensor provided in the band coupling unit 302c can sense information related to the user's body have.
For example, the information related to the body of the user may include information related to at least one of a user's skin and a user's blood. In addition, the controller 180 may perform the first authentication using information related to the user's body detected by the sensor.

That is, when the user authentication is completed using at least one of the first and second authentication, the controller 380 can associate the detected hole with the first authentication using the user input related to the user authentication.
More specifically, in a state where the first hole of the plurality of holes is associated with the first authentication, when the detected hole is the second hole, the controller 380 can determine that the first authentication has failed. In this case, the controller 380 can perform the second authentication, and when the second authentication is successful, associate the second hole with the first authentication.

Another example of the tactile effect generated by the grapple module 501 is to increase the length of the band part 302 worn on a part of the user's body to release the feeling of tightening a part of the user's body to the user.
The length and the pattern of the band portion in which the grapple module 501 is reduced or increased can be controlled by the user's selection or setting of the control portion. For example, the grab module 501 may reduce or increase the length of the band portion by different amounts.

For example, the display unit of the other terminal 600a may output an execution screen of an application providing a message service. In this case, the execution screen may include a button 601 for generating the control command signal. The control unit of the other terminal 600a may transmit the control command signal using the touch input applied to the button 601. [
In this case, the control unit 380 can determine that the predetermined event 500 has occurred in response to receiving the control command signal.
6 (b), a control unit (not shown) of the other wearable type terminal 300a can transmit the control command signal to the wearable type terminal 300 using a preset user input.
For example, the predetermined user input may be to touch (T) the side of another wearable type terminal 300a. That is, the terminal 300a may include a touch sensor on a side portion thereof, and may transmit the control command signal using a result sensed by the touch sensor.
6 (c), the wireless communication unit 310 may receive the transmitted control command signal, as described with reference to FIGS. 6 (a) and 6 (b). In addition, the control unit 380 may change the length of the band unit in a predetermined manner in response to the received control command signal.
For example, the control command signal may be associated with decreasing or increasing the length of the band portion and with a control command. In another example, the control command signal may include information related to a length variation of the band portion. In addition, the control command signal may include information related to a time interval for changing the length of the band portion.
In the following FIG. 7, an embodiment for performing user authentication for a plurality of users using the band unit proposed in the present invention will be described.
As shown in Fig. 7, the control unit 380 can determine the user identification information associated with the first authentication based on the attribute information of the detected hole.
More specifically, the control unit 380 can identify the user who performs the first authentication using the identification information of the hole detected as being combined with the fastener 302a among the plurality of holes.
That is, the control unit 380 can determine the user information of the user performing the first authentication according to the identification information of the detected hole. 7A and 7B, when the fastener 302a is coupled to a different hole, the control unit 380 controls the display unit 351 to output a user screen corresponding to a different user .
The present invention can provide a new type of user convenience by performing user authentication of the wearable type mobile terminal using the band part.
In addition, the present invention can notify the user of the wearable type mobile terminal of the occurrence of an event by changing the length of the band part. Thereby, the user is able to detect a new type of notification information from the terminal.
The present invention described above can be embodied as computer-readable codes 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 a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state disk (SSD), a silicon disk drive (SDD), a ROM, a RAM, a CD-ROM, a magnetic tape, a floppy disk, , And may also be implemented in the form of a carrier wave (e.g., transmission over the Internet). Also, the computer may include a control unit 180 of the terminal. Accordingly, the above description should not be construed in a limiting sense in all respects and should be considered illustrative. The scope of the present invention should be determined by rational interpretation of the appended claims, and all changes within the scope of equivalents of the present invention are included in the scope of the present invention.
