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 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.

To a mobile terminal corresponding to any one of the graphic objects.

At this time, the control unit 280 can transmit information related to the image only when the mobile terminal corresponding to any one of the graphic objects satisfies the specific condition. For example, when the age information of the user set in the first mobile terminal 100a corresponding to any one of the graphic objects 410a satisfies the specific condition, the control unit 280 controls the first mobile terminal 100a 100a to transmit information related to the image 520a. In this case, an image 520b substantially identical to the image 520a may be reproduced (output) on the touch screen of the first mobile terminal 100a as shown in FIG. 5 (b).

Meanwhile, if the mobile terminal corresponding to any one of the graphic objects does not satisfy the specific condition, the control unit 280 may restrict transmission of information related to the image. For example, when the third mobile terminal 100c corresponding to any one of the graphic objects 410c does not satisfy the specific condition, the control unit 280 displays the playback (or output) ) To the third mobile terminal (100c). In this case, the third mobile terminal 100c may output information 540 indicating that the reproduction is impossible, as shown in (c) of FIG.
