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 fluorescent light sensor, a mirror reflection fluorescent light sensor, a high frequency oscillation 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 camera 121 and the laser sensor may be combined with each other to sense a touch of the sensing object with respect to the three-dimensional stereoscopic image. 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.

In this case, the power supply unit 190 may use at least one of an inductive coupling method based on a magnetic induction phenomenon from an external wireless power transmission apparatus and a magnetic resonance coupling method based on an electromagnetic resonance phenomenon Power can be delivered.

In the following, various embodiments may be embodied in a recording medium readable by a computer or similar device using, for example, software, hardware, or a combination thereof.

Hereinafter, a mobile terminal having at least one of the above-described components may include a sensing unit 140 including at least one sensor capable of sensing various environmental information related to the surrounding environment.

The sensing unit 140 can sense various environmental information related to the surrounding environment, particularly, environments in which human beings can not visually perceive, such as air, sounds with a frequency band other than the audible frequency, have.

For this, the sensing unit 140 may include various sensors. For example, the sensing unit 140 may include an ultrasonic sensor, a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a carbon dioxide sensor, a gas sensor, a fine dust detecting sensor, and a VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) sensor.

The sensing unit 140 may sense environmental information related to the surrounding environment, particularly, the air, and may transmit the environmental information to the controller 180.

Here, the environmental information may be information capable of measuring the state or quality of the surrounding environment, for example, temperature information, humidity information, carbon dioxide concentration information, fine dust concentration information, VOC information, and the like.

The sensing unit 140 may be activated based on whether a user request or predetermined condition is satisfied. Activation of the sensing unit 140 means that the sensors of the sensing unit 140 can sense environmental information related to the surrounding environment. In contrast, deactivation of the sensing unit 140 means that the sensors can not sense environmental information related to the surrounding environment.

The sensing unit 140 may sense environment information related to the surrounding environment in real time or at predetermined time intervals. Here, the preset time period is preset at the factory, or can be set by the user.

In addition, the sensing unit 140 may sense environment information related to the surrounding environment based on a control command of the controller 180 or a user request.

Meanwhile, unlike the previous description, the mobile terminal according to the present invention may not receive the sensing unit 140, and may receive environmental information from external sensors connected by wire or wirelessly.

In the following description, it is assumed that the sensing unit 140 is provided in the mobile terminal. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the sensing unit 140 may be applied to the mobile terminal in a wired or wireless manner. have.

Hereinafter, an operation method using environment information sensed by the sensing unit 140 in a mobile terminal having the sensing unit 140 will be described in detail.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a control method of a mobile terminal according to the present invention. 3 is a conceptual diagram showing the control method of FIG.

First, the control unit 180 of the mobile terminal according to the present invention can detect environmental information related to the surrounding environment (S210).

In the mobile terminal according to the present invention, functions related to Internet of Things (IoT) can be provided. The functions related to the object Internet technology can be provided as an application installed in the mobile terminal.

Such an application may be installed at the factory of the mobile terminal by a manufacturer or a communication company of the mobile terminal or may be installed or released by a user in an application market such as an open market such as google play, And downloaded to the mobile terminal.

When the application is executed, the control unit 180 can start sensing environmental information.

The control unit 180 can execute the application based on a user's request or a predetermined condition is satisfied. The predetermined condition may be a condition related to the schedule stored in the specific time period condition information and the schedule information. For example, the predetermined condition may be a condition of a work time or a work time. As another example, the preset condition may be a condition in which the outgoing schedule is stored on the schedule information.

When the application is executed, the control unit 180 can activate the sensors constituting the sensing unit 140. In addition, when the application is terminated, the controller 180 may deactivate the sensors included in the sensing unit 140.

When the application is executed, the controller 180 can execute functions related to the object Internet technology provided by the application.

The functions related to the object Internet technology are functions for remotely controlling objects that can be connected to the Internet through communication. Here, the object may be an electronic device capable of communicating with an air conditioner, an air purifier, a dehumidifier, a refrigerator, an air conditioner, a window control device, a door control device, or the like.

More specifically, the control unit 180 can control the operation of objects through communication. For example, the control unit 180 can activate the air conditioner by transmitting a control command for operating the air conditioner to the air conditioner through communication.

Meanwhile, when the application is executed, the control unit 180 can sense information related to the surrounding environment through the sensing unit 140. [

The control unit 180 may sense the surrounding environment of the space within the preset range based on the position of the mobile terminal through the sensing unit 140 or may detect the surrounding environment of the selected space at the request of the user There is also.

If the space selected by the user's request is located far away from the position of the mobile terminal, the controller 180 detects information related to the surrounding environment using an external sensing unit disposed in the selected space, It can receive it through communication with an external sensing unit.

The control unit 180 may sense at least one environmental information among a plurality of environmental information when the surrounding environment is sensed. For example, the control unit 180 can detect only the temperature information among a plurality of environmental information based on the control command.

As another example, the control unit 180 may sense at least one environment information among a plurality of environmental information based on predetermined conditions. The predetermined condition may be a predetermined condition of environment information in various setting modes provided by the application. For example, when the ventilation mode is related to ventilation, the controller 180 may detect temperature information, humidity information, and fine dust information preset to be sensed in the ventilation mode. As another example, when the controller 180 is in a heating mode related to heating, the controller 180 may detect preset temperature information to be sensed in the heating mode.

The control unit 180 may output the sensed environment information on the display unit 151 when the environment information is sensed. For example, as shown in FIG. 3 (a), the control unit 180 stores the humidity information 310a, the temperature information 310b, the fine dust concentration information 310c, and the carbon dioxide concentration information 310d Respectively. The indoor space means a space for the interior such as a kitchen, a room, and a toilet. Through this, the user can numerically confirm the information related to the environment of each space.

The control unit 180 may detect the anticipated scenario based on the sensed environment information (S220).

Here, the anticipated scenario refers to information that predicts future environmental conditions based on the environmental information sensed through the sensing unit 140. More specifically, the anticipatory scenario may be virtual state information related to the environment that can be generated in the specific space based on the currently sensed environment information, or health information related to the influence on the human body of the user in the specific space .

For example, if the humidity of a particular space is greater than 70%, the anticipated scenario may be a scenario where the wall is moldy. As another example, when the fine dust concentration in a specific space is higher than a preset reference concentration, the anticipated scenario may be a scenario in which respiratory disease occurs.

That is, the present invention provides not only numerical environmental information but also prediction information such as a predicted scenario that predicts a future state based on environmental information, thereby providing information that can be more helpful to users' .

The expected scenario may be stored in advance in the mobile terminal, or the control unit 180 may generate it based on the environment information. Alternatively, the expected scenario may be stored in an external server. Here, the external server may transmit and receive data through communication with the mobile terminal, and may be a server that stores expected scenario information according to environment information.

More specifically, the environment information and the anticipated scenario may be stored in association with each other in the memory 170 of the mobile terminal. For example, in the memory 170, different expected scenarios may be stored in correspondence with different environmental information.

In addition, the control unit 180 may generate the anticipated scenario based on the environment information detected by the sensing unit 140. [ For example, if the humidity of the humidity information is detected to be 70% or more, the control unit 180 can generate a scenario in which the mold is generated.

Also, the control unit 180 may transmit the environment information sensed by the sensing unit 140 to the external server, and receive the expected scenario from the external server. The external server can detect the anticipated scenario based on the environment information received from the mobile terminal and transmit the detected anticipated scenario to the mobile terminal.

On the other hand, the control unit 180 can detect different expected scenarios based on at least one of the position and the time at which the environmental information is sensed even when the same environmental information is detected. That is, the anticipated scenario may be detected based on at least one of environmental information, location and time at which environmental information is sensed.

Here, the location where the environmental information is sensed includes the indoor position of the toilet, the living room, the room, the kitchen, and the time may include the time of the day, day, night, morning, afternoon, winter,

For example, when the indoor temperature information of winter is detected at 18 degrees, the control unit 180 detects a presumed scenario in which the user is caught in the window, and when the indoor temperature information of the summer is detected at 18 degrees, Can be detected.

Meanwhile, the prediction scenario may further include information on external devices related to the scenario, as well as information on a prediction of a future state. Here, the external device may be external Internet devices, i.e., external devices that can be controlled through communication with the mobile terminal. The external device included in the anticipated scenario may be a recommended device whose execution is recommended based on the current environmental information.

For example, in the case of anticipated scenarios where walls are moldy, dehumidifiers and air conditioning information may be further included. As another example, in the case of a hypothetical scenario in which a respiratory illness is caused, the window control device and air purifier information may be further included.

That is, when there are a plurality of anticipated scenarios, each anticipated scenario may include at least one recommended device information. In this way, the user can know recommended device information whose operation is recommended on the current environment information. Therefore, the user can utilize the object Internet technology more efficiently.

The control unit 180 may output the expected scenario to the display unit (S230).

The control unit 180 can output the detected anticipated scenario on the display unit 151 when the anticipated scenario is detected based on the environment information. For example, as shown in FIG. 3 (b), the controller 180 may output the anticipated scenario 320 on the wall on the display unit 151. Accordingly, the user can visually check the anticipated scenario output to the display unit 151. [

In addition to the visual manner, the control unit 180 may output the anticipatory scenario in at least one of an auditory and tactile manner.

On the other hand, the control unit 180 may output the expected scenario on the display unit 151 provided in the mobile terminal, but may output the visual information to the external display device through communication. That is, the control unit 180 transmits the anticipated scenario to the external display device through communication, and the external display device can output the anticipated scenario information.

When there are a plurality of display portions, the position at which the expected scenario is output may be determined by the user's selection or predetermined conditions. Here, the predetermined condition may be the present position of the user, a display pre-condition preset in the anticipated scenario, and the like.

For example, in the case of anticipated scenarios in which molds are generated on the wall, the control unit 180 may control the display device so that the anticipated scenario information is output to the display device installed on the wall side (for example, a TV installed on the wall).

As another example, in the case of a hypothetical scenario in which a respiratory disease is caused, the controller 180 may control the display unit to output the predicted scenario information to the display unit of the mobile terminal installed nearest to the current user's location.

Through this, the mobile terminal according to the present invention can provide the anticipated scenario at the most appropriate position to be recognized by the user.

On the other hand, although not shown, the control unit 180 may cause the expected scenario to disappear from the display unit 151 based on satisfaction of the predetermined condition. For example, after detecting the anticipated scenario, the control unit 180 may cause the anticipation scenario to disappear from the display unit 151 when the newly sensed environment information is different from the sensed environment information before the anticipated scenario is detected.

Hereinafter, the description will be made on the basis that the expected scenario is displayed on the display unit of the mobile terminal, unless otherwise noted. However, the following description can be equally applied to cases in which an expected scenario is displayed on the external display unit.

In operation S240, the control unit 180 may detect the user gesture in a state where the expected scenario is output to the display unit.

The control unit 180 may sense the user gesture through the user input unit 123. [ The user gesture is a user action related to input of control commands such as a touch gesture touching or approaching the display unit, a user movement detected at a distance close to the mobile terminal, and a gesture generating sound.

For example, as shown in (c) of FIG. 3, the controller 180 can sense the touch input 330 that sweeps the display unit 151 through the touch sensor. As another example, as shown in (a) of FIG. 5A, the control unit 180 can sense a user gesture in the form of a sound "after" through the microphone.

The controller 180 may control the operation of the external device in response to the user gesture (S250).

The control unit 180 may control the operation of the external device related to the anticipated scenario in response to the user gesture when the anticipatory scenario is displayed on the display unit 151 and the user gesture is input.

For example, as shown in FIG. 3 (d), the control unit 180 may activate the air conditioner in response to the user gesture. More specifically, the control unit 180 may transmit an operation command to the air conditioner through communication to operate the air conditioner. Also, the controller 180 may output the notification information 340 indicating that the air conditioner is activated to the display unit 151. [ Through this, the present invention can provide the user with a more intuitive present operating state.

On the other hand, although not shown, the control unit 180 can perform control related to operations such as the operation time and the operation strength of the external device based on the sensed environment information.

For example, when the humidity is 70%, the control unit 180 transmits an operation command to the air conditioner in which the operation time of the air conditioner is set to 1 hour. When the humidity is 90%, the operation time of the air conditioner is set to 2 hours An operation command can be transmitted to the air conditioner. In this case, the air conditioner can automatically stop the operation when the operation time has elapsed.

That is, the controller 180 can control power on / off, operation time, operation strength, operation state, and the like of the external device with the control related to the operation of the external device. Accordingly, the present invention can automatically control an external device appropriately for the current environment without any additional operation of the user.

In the above, a method for detecting environment information related to the surrounding environment and providing the expected scenario and performing the related control has been described in the mobile terminal according to the present invention. Through this, the present invention not only visually provides environmental information that is visually difficult for the user to visually recognize, but also provides prediction information related to the environmental information, thereby helping the user to perceive the influence of such environmental information more intuitively have. Further, according to the present invention, when the user scenes input is applied, the operations related to the anticipated scenarios are performed directly in providing the anticipatory scenarios, thereby realizing a more convenient Internet of things.

Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 4A and 4B, it is described that different scenarios are provided based on at least one of environmental information, location, and time.

The control unit 180 can provide different anticipatory scenarios based on at least one of the position and the time even if the same environmental information is detected. That is, even if the temperature is the same, the proper temperature can be set differently according to the position where the environmental information is sensed or the time when the environmental information is sensed. Therefore, even if the same environmental information is detected, Depending on location and time, you can provide different scenarios.

For example, as shown in (a) of FIG. 4A, the controller 180 can detect that the current humidity of the house is 50%, the temperature is 25 degrees, the fine dust concentration is good, and the carbon dioxide concentration is 30% have.

The control unit 180 may detect a presumed scenario in which fungus is generated on the wall based on the location information indicating the room and the sensed environment information. The control unit 180 may output the anticipated scenario 320 on the wall on the display unit 151.

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 4B, the controller 180 can sense that the humidity of the bathroom is 50%, the temperature is 25 degrees, the fine dust concentration is good, and the carbon dioxide concentration is 30%.

The control unit 180 can generate a presumed scenario in which malaise occurs in the windshield based on the location information indicating the toilet and the detected environment information. In addition, the controller 180 may output the anticipated scenario 420 in which the malaise occurs in the window.

That is, the control unit 180 may output different expected scenarios according to the location where the environmental information is sensed, even though they are the same environmental information. Accordingly, the present invention can provide a more realistic anticipated scenario to the user.

Hereinafter, the control method related to the anticipated scenario described with reference to FIG. 2 will be described in detail. FIGS. 5A and 5B are conceptual diagrams showing different controls according to a user gesture in a mobile terminal according to the present invention. FIG. 6A and 6B are conceptual diagrams illustrating different controls in a mobile terminal according to the present invention, based on environment information of the surrounding environment.

The control unit 180 may control the operation of external devices related to the anticipated scenario in response to the user gesture when the anticipated scenario is output to the display unit 151 and a user gesture is detected.

Meanwhile, the controller 180 may control the operation of different external devices in response to different user gestures for the same anticipated scenario.

More specifically, the control unit 180 may execute a specific external device corresponding to the user gesture among a plurality of external device information included in the anticipated scenario.

For example, as shown in (a) of FIG. 5A, the control unit 180 detects a prediction scenario in which the visibility distance due to fine dust is shortened based on environmental information measured with a poor fine dust concentration, And can output the anticipated scenario to the display unit 151. [ The control unit 180 may detect that the first user gesture of the sound type "after" is input while the predictive scenario is displayed on the display unit 151. [

In this case, as shown in (b) of FIG. 5A, the controller 180 may operate the air cleaner in response to the first user gesture of the sound type "after". Here, the air cleaner may be an external device corresponding to a first user gesture of a sound type " after ", which is one of a plurality of external devices included in a hypothetical scenario in which the visibility distance due to fine dust is shortened.

As another example, as shown in (a) of FIG. 5B, the control unit 180 detects a predicted scenario in which the visibility distance due to fine dust is shortened based on environmental information measured with a poor fine dust concentration, And can output the anticipated scenario to the display unit 151. [ That is, it is possible to detect the same anticipated scenario as that of FIG. 5A (a).

5B, when the second user gesture, which is a touch input in which the display unit 151 is rubbed, is displayed on the display unit 151 in a state in which the expected scenario is displayed, Can be detected.

5B, the controller 180 controls the window control device in response to the second user gesture, which is a touch input of rubbing the display portion 151, to close the window Can be performed.

That is, the control unit 180 controls different external devices according to the user gesture, so that the user can grasp the intention of the user through the user gesture, .

When the external device is operated as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, the control unit 180 displays notification information (for example, a pop-up window) As shown in FIG. Therefore, the user can immediately recognize the operation state of the external device.

On the other hand, the control unit 180 can control the operation of different external devices even if the same user gesture is applied to the same anticipated scenario.

More specifically, the controller 180 can control the operation of different external devices according to environmental information and product performance, even if the same user scenario is applied to the same anticipated scenario.

For example, as shown in (a) of FIG. 6A, the controller 180 may detect that the touch input is applied to the anticipated scenario in which the wall fungus is generated. At this time, as shown in (b) of FIG. 6A, when the environment information is the first humidity information, the controller 180 can operate the dehumidifier, which is an external device corresponding to the first humidity information.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 6 (a), the controller 180 may detect that the touch input is applied to the same anticipated scenario as shown in FIG. 6 (a). 6B, when the environment information is the second humidity information having higher humidity than the first humidity information, the controller 180 can operate the air conditioner as an external device corresponding to the second humidity information .

That is, when the humidity is high, the controller 180 uses devices having good humidity removal performance, that is, an air conditioner.

As described above, the controller 180 can operate different external devices according to environment information and product performance even when the same touch input is applied to the same anticipated scenario.

On the other hand, although not shown, the control unit 180 may display the operation status of the external device in operation on the display unit 151 when the external device is operated.

For example, when the air conditioner is in operation, the controller 180 may output a graphic object on the display unit 151 indicating the strength and direction of the wind output from the air conditioner on the display unit.

At this time, the controller 180 can control the operation state of the air conditioner based on the touch input to the graphic object. For example, the controller 180 can change the wind strength of the air conditioner based on the touch input that induces the movement of the graphic object. That is, the present invention can control not only the operation and termination of the external device but also the execution state.

Hereinafter, a method of providing a recommendation device with respect to the anticipated scenario will be described. 7 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a method of providing a recommendation device according to a user gesture in a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

In response to the detection of the user gesture, the control unit 180 can detect at least one of a plurality of external apparatuses related to the anticipated scenario as a recommendation apparatus in a state in which the anticipated scenario is displayed.

The recommendation device is an external device related to the anticipated scenario and is recommended to be implemented.

Also, the recommendation device may be at least one external device having a high frequency of use among a plurality of external devices related to the anticipated scenario. For example, if there are five external devices associated with the anticipated scenario, the recommended device may be two frequently used external devices. Alternatively, the recommendation device may be at least one external device having a good performance among a plurality of external devices related to the anticipated scenario. For example, if there are five external devices associated with the anticipated scenario, the recommended device may be two external devices in the order of highest device performance.

Thereafter, the control unit 180 may output a recommendation list including the at least one recommended devices on the display unit 151. [ For example, as shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, on the basis of the touch input of the user on the display unit 151 on which the expected scenario is displayed, The recommendation list 700 including the recommendation list 700 can be output.

The control unit 180 can execute a specific recommender in response to the touch input being applied to the recommender among the recommender apparatuses included in the recommendation list 700. [ For example, as shown in (c) of FIG. 7, the controller 180 may operate the air conditioner in response to the touch input being applied to the item indicating the air conditioner.

Through this, the present invention can more conveniently perform the operations associated with the anticipated scenarios.

Hereinafter, the operation related to the case where the environmental information of the surrounding environment is changed will be described. 8 is a flowchart illustrating a control method related to the operation of the mobile terminal when the external environment changes in the mobile terminal according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the user gesture is input, the controller 180 can operate the external device related to the anticipated scenario.

The controller 180 may detect new environment information during operation of the external device according to the anticipated scenario (S810).

The control unit 180 can continuously detect the surrounding environment information in real time or at predetermined intervals while the external apparatus is in operation.

If the environment information sensed through the sensing unit 140 is different from the environmental information sensed before the external apparatus is operated, the controller 180 may terminate the operation of the external apparatus in operation S820. Alternatively, when the environmental information sensed through the sensing unit 140 corresponds to pre-stored environmental information after the operation of the external apparatus, the controller 180 may terminate the operation of the external apparatus.

That is, the controller 180 may terminate the operation of the external device if it is determined that the currently sensed environment information is no longer required to operate the external device.

The above description is based on the case where the operation according to the present invention is implemented in a mobile terminal. However, the above-described control can operate in the same way as the server constituting the object Internet system. Hereinafter, the object Internet system will be described with reference to FIG. 9 through FIG.

The object Internet system allows a server to control things through communication with objects in the house.

10, the object Internet system may include a communication unit 1100, a position detection unit 1200, a display unit 1500, a sensing unit 1400, and a control unit 1800.

The communication unit 1100 is a configuration for performing communication between objects and the object Internet system. The position detecting unit 1200 detects the position of a user in the house or the position information of objects. The display unit 1500 is configured to output time information, and the sensing unit 1400 is configured to sense environmental information related to the surrounding environment of the house.

The control unit 1800 is configured to control the above-described configurations and is used in the same terminology as the server of the object Internet system. That is, the control unit 1800 can communicate with the respective components by wire or wireless, and can control objects in the house.

The object Internet system can be installed in each room in the house. 9, when the space in the house is divided into a toilet 930, a room 920, and a living room 910, display units 910a, 910c, 920a, and 930a are provided for each space, Can be installed. In addition, the sensing units 910b, 920b, and 930b may be provided for each space. That is, the object Internet system includes a separate display unit and a sensing unit for each space, so that the control unit 1800 can easily acquire and provide information of each space.

The control unit 1800 of the object Internet system according to the present invention can perform the control operation of FIG.

For example, the control unit 1800 may sense the environment information through the sensing unit 1400 and output the expected scenario to the display unit 1500. [

Since the control unit 1800 includes separate display units 910a, 910c, 920a, and 930a and sensing units 910b, 920b, and 930b for each space, the expected scenarios are displayed on the display units 910a, 910c, 920a, and 930a.

More specifically, the control unit 1800 can output the anticipated scenario to a specific one of the plurality of display units 910a, 910c, 920a, and 930a based on the position or the position of the user associated with the anticipated scenario.

For example, the control unit 1800 controls the display unit 930a provided in the restroom 930 in the case of the anticipated scenario based on the environment information sensed through the sensing unit 930b installed in the toilet 930, Can be output.

As another example, when the location information of the user is the main room 920, the control unit 1800 may output the expected scenario to the display unit 920a installed in the main room 920.

Also, when the location information of the user is changed, the control unit 1800 may output the expected scenario to the display unit disposed closest to the changed location information. For example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the user's location information is moved from the main room 920 to the living room 910, the controller 180 displays the plurality of display units 910a, 910c, 920a, and 930a, It is possible to output the anticipated scenario to the display unit 910c closest to the user's position.

According to the mobile terminal of the present invention as described above, the user can more intuitively recognize the state related to the surrounding environment by visually providing the environment information related to the surrounding environment that can not be visually recognized.

In addition, the mobile terminal according to the present invention provides a prediction scenario indicating the state of the predictable environment based on the environment information related to the surrounding environment, so that the user can predict the future situation in advance.

In addition, according to the mobile terminal of the present invention, it is possible to control the operation of surrounding objects suitable for the current environment by controlling surrounding objects through the Internet based on environmental information related to the surrounding environment.

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.
