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 uses 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, Detection.

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.

On the other hand, the touch sensors and the proximity sensors discussed above can be used independently or in combination to provide a short touch (touch), a long touch, a multi touch, a drag touch ), Flick touch, pinch-in touch, pinch-out touch, swipe touch, hovering touch, and the like. 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.

The display unit 151 displays (outputs) information processed by the mobile terminal 100. For example, the display unit 151 may display execution screen information of an application program driven by the mobile terminal 100 or UI (User Interface) and GUI (Graphic User Interface) information according to the execution screen information .

In addition, the display unit 151 may be configured as a stereoscopic display unit for displaying a stereoscopic image.

In addition, the 3D thumbnail image may generate a left image thumbnail and a right image thumbnail from the left image and right image of the original image frame, respectively, and may be generated as one image as they are combined. In general, a thumbnail means a reduced image or a reduced still image. The left image thumbnail and the right image thumbnail generated in this way are displayed on the screen with a difference of the left and right distance by the depth corresponding to the parallax between the left image and the right image, thereby exhibiting a stereoscopic spatial feeling.

The left and right images necessary for realizing the three-dimensional stereoscopic image can be displayed on the stereoscopic display unit by the stereoscopic processing unit. The stereoscopic processing unit receives a 3D image (an image at a reference time point and an image at an expansion point), sets a left image and a right image therefrom, or receives a 2D image and converts it into a left image and a right image.

Referring to FIG. 2, in step S202, the controller 180 obtains the environment information of the mobile terminal 100. In step S202, the environment information of the mobile terminal 100 is acquired.

In one embodiment, the control unit 180 may acquire the environment information of the mobile terminal 100 through the sensing unit 140 of the mobile terminal 100. That is, the control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 can directly acquire the surrounding environment information through the sensing unit 140 of the mobile terminal 100.

In another embodiment, the control unit 180 can acquire the environment information of the mobile terminal 100 through the wireless communication unit of the mobile terminal 100. [ That is, the control unit 180 of the mobile terminal 100 can determine the location of the mobile terminal 100 through the location information modules 115 and 115 of the wireless communication unit, Information can be obtained from the external server through the wireless communication unit 110.

The surrounding environment information includes information on the environment of the location where the mobile terminal 100 is used. For example, the ambient environment information may include at least one of a temperature at which the mobile terminal 100 is used, a humidity at which the mobile terminal 100 is used, a pressure at a position where the mobile terminal 100 is used, The altitude of the position where the mobile terminal 100 is used, the intensity of the radio wave at the position where the mobile terminal 100 is used, the brightness of the position where the mobile terminal 100 is used, and the like. However, the present invention is not limited to the above-described example, and the controller 180 may acquire various peripheral environment information.

2, the controller 180 diagnoses the state of the mobile terminal 100 in the step of determining whether the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal (S203) , and determines whether the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal .

In one embodiment, the controller 180 may obtain the temperature of the mobile terminal 100 through the sensing unit 140 of the mobile terminal 100. The temperature of the mobile terminal 100 may be the temperature of the body of the mobile terminal 100. The temperature of the mobile terminal 100 is measured by the wireless communication unit 110, the input unit 120, the sensing unit 140, the output unit 150, the interface unit 160, the memory 170, (180), and power supply (190).

In another embodiment, the controller 180 may obtain information on the status of the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100. The status of the display unit 151 may include information about the display status of the display unit 151 and the display status of the display unit 151.

In yet another embodiment, the controller 180 may obtain information about the battery of the mobile terminal 100. [ Information about the battery may include information about the remaining capacity of the battery, the maximum capacity of the battery, the life of the battery, and the like.

In another embodiment, the control unit 180 may obtain information about the sound output module of the mobile terminal 100. [ The information on the sound output module may include information on the size of the sound output, information on the sound output time, and the like.

In addition, in one embodiment, the controller 180 can diagnose the state of the mobile terminal 100 using the obtained information to determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal. The abnormality can be judged by comparing the obtained information with the predetermined standard. In addition, the criterion is not a fixed value and can be modified as needed.

Referring to FIG. 2, in step S204 of determining a diagnosis result display exception condition , the controller 180 determines that the state of the mobile terminal 100 determined to be abnormal corresponds to a diagnosis result display exception condition.

In one embodiment, the control unit 180 may determine whether the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied by using the usage pattern information.

In another embodiment, the controller 180 can determine whether the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied by using the surrounding information.

In another embodiment, the controller 180 can determine whether the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied by using the usage pattern information and the surrounding information.

The diagnosis result display exception condition means an exception condition that the control unit 180 does not display the diagnosis result in the output unit 150 even if the state of the mobile terminal 100 is diagnosed as abnormal.

For example, when the temperature of the mobile terminal 100 is increased to a predetermined value or more, the controller 180 determines that the mobile terminal 100 is in an abnormal state, The control unit 180 determines that the diagnosis result is a display exception condition and restricts the display of the diagnosis result. As described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to restrict the display of the diagnosis result when the diagnosis result is inconvenient to the user, thereby improving the effect that the user can use the mobile terminal 100 more conveniently do.

However, a specific method for restricting the display of the diagnosis result as described above will be described later with reference to Figs. 4A to 7.

2, if the status of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal in the step S205 of displaying the status diagnosis result and the diagnosis result display exception condition is not satisfied, the control unit 180 displays the diagnosis result on the display Can be displayed on the display section (151).

3 is a diagram for explaining a method of displaying a diagnosis result of the mobile terminal 100 in the mobile terminal 100 according to the present invention.

The controller 180 controls the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 to display the status of the mobile terminal 100 in a state where the status of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal, ) 302 and a specific content 301 corresponding thereto can be displayed. In addition, a processing method (303) for quickly solving the diagnosis result can be presented so that the user can conveniently and quickly respond to the diagnosis result.

However, the present invention is characterized in that the diagnostic result is not displayed when the diagnostic result corresponds to the display result display exception condition.

4A to 4C are diagrams for explaining a mobile terminal 100 that restricts the provision of diagnostic results to the memory 170 in the mobile terminal 100 according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4A, the controller 180 may obtain information on the memory 170 to determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal. Specifically, the control unit 180 can acquire information on a file that is not used in the memory 170, and can determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal based on the presence or absence of an unused file. The unused file may refer to a file not used by the control unit 180 for a predetermined period of time. For example, if the predetermined period is one month, the control unit 180 can acquire information about a file that is not used for one month or more. Accordingly, the controller 180 may determine that the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal when there is a file that is not used for one month or more.

If there is no diagnostic result display exception condition, the control unit 180 may display a notification 401 on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 that the file needs to be sorted to secure a storage space. However, if there is a diagnostic result display exception condition, the notification 401 may not be displayed.

In one embodiment, the control unit 180 may determine the diagnostic result display exception condition in consideration of the usage pattern of the user.

For example, the controller 180 may determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied when there is a record in which an application for organizing files of the mobile terminal 100 is performed within a preset period. If the condition is satisfied, it is appropriate that the user of the mobile terminal 100 intentionally has not deleted files that the control unit 180 has not used for a preset period of time. Therefore, Can be determined to satisfy the following formula.

For example, the controller 180 can determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied when the capacity of the memory 170 is more than the preset capacity. If the capacity of the memory 170 is sufficient, there is no problem in using the mobile terminal 100 without deleting a file that is not used by the controller 180 for a preset period of time. It can be judged as satisfactory.

Referring to FIG. 4B, the controller 180 may obtain information on the memory 170 to determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal. Specifically, the control unit 180 can obtain information on the remaining capacity of the memory 170, and can determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal based on the remaining capacity of the memory 170. For example, when the capacity of the memory 170 is less than 1 GB or less than 20% of the capacity of the entire memory 170, the controller 180 may determine that the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal.

If there is no diagnostic result display exception condition, the controller 180 may display a notification 402 on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 that the file needs to be sorted to secure a storage space. However, if there is a diagnostic result display exception condition, the notification 402 may not be displayed.

For example, the controller 180 may determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied when there is a record in which an application for organizing files of the mobile terminal 100 is performed within a preset period. If the condition is satisfied, the user of the mobile terminal 100 determines that the unnecessary file has already been arranged to secure the remaining space, and the controller 180 can determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied.

For example, if there is no file that can be cleaned, the control unit 180 may determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied. If the condition is satisfied, the user of the mobile terminal 100 determines that the unnecessary file has already been arranged to secure the remaining space, and the controller 180 can determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied.

Referring to FIG. 4C, the controller 180 may obtain information on the memory 170 to determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal. Specifically, the control unit 180 may obtain information on the number of times of use of the memory 170, and may determine whether or not the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal, in comparison with the limit service life of the memory 170. [ The memory 170 is generally limited in the number of times of reading and writing. If the memory 170 is used more than the limited number of times of reading and writing, the file stored in the memory 170 may be damaged. For example, if the maximum number of times of reading and writing of the memory 170 of the mobile terminal 100 is 100,000 times, if the number of times of reading and writing of the memory 170 exceeds 90,000 times, which is 90% It can be determined that the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal.

In addition, if there is no diagnostic result display exception condition, the control unit 180 may display a notification 403 on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 that a backup of the important file is necessary. However, if there is a diagnostic result display exception condition, the notification 403 may not be displayed.

In one embodiment, the control unit 180 may determine the diagnostic result display exception condition in consideration of the usage pattern of the user.

For example, when there is a record of backing up a file of the mobile terminal 100 within a preset period, the controller 180 may determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied. If it satisfies these conditions, it is appropriate that the user of the mobile terminal 100 has already completed the backup of the important file, so that the controller 180 can determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied.

That is, when the control unit 180 determines that the user has taken the necessary action corresponding to the abnormal state, it is possible to limit the display of the diagnosis result by satisfying the diagnosis result display exception condition.

5A and 5B are diagrams for explaining a mobile terminal 100 that restricts the provision of a diagnosis result for a network in the mobile terminal 100 according to the present invention.

5A and 5B, the controller 180 may obtain information on a signal of the network of the wireless communication unit 110 to determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal. Specifically, the control unit 180 can obtain information on the network signal by the user of the mobile terminal 100, and can determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal according to the strength of the network signal.

However, if there is a diagnosis result display exception condition, the notifications (501, 502) may not be displayed.

In one embodiment, the control unit 180 may determine the diagnostic result display exception condition in consideration of the usage pattern of the user.

For example, when the mobile terminal 100 periodically visits the same area and the network signal of the area is weak, the controller 180 may determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied. The control unit 180 may periodically store the location of the mobile terminal 100 in the memory 170 and may determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied when the network signal is visited a certain number of times in a weak area .

However, if the mobile terminal 100 determines that the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal for the same reason as described above, the diagnostic result may be displayed at regular intervals to remind the user of the problem even if the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied.

In another embodiment, the control unit 180 can determine the diagnosis result display exception condition in consideration of the user's surrounding environment.

If the battery is charged at a low temperature, the life of the battery may be shortened. If the battery is charged at a high temperature, the performance of the mobile terminal 100 may be acceptable. However, The problem may occur that the battery charging speed is lowered. For example, when the temperature range of 0 ° to 45 ° during charging is set as a normal range, the controller 180 determines that the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal when the battery is charged at a temperature outside the normal range can do.

In addition, if there is no diagnostic result display exception condition, the control unit 180 can display notifications 601 and 602 indicating that the battery charging temperature is in a problem on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100.

Generally, when the mobile terminal 100 is used while charging the battery, the heat generation of the mobile terminal 100 becomes a problem. When the temperature of the mobile terminal 100 increases, the performance of the mobile terminal 100 deteriorates. Problems can arise. For example, the controller 180 may determine that the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal when the mobile terminal 100 is used for more than the reference charging time. Specifically, when it is determined that the mobile terminal 100 is in use for more than 30 minutes while the battery is being charged, the controller 180 may determine that the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal.

The controller 180 may also display on the display 151 of the mobile terminal 100 a notification 603 that it is necessary to refrain from using the mobile terminal 100 during charging if there is no diagnostic result display exception condition have. However, if there is a diagnostic result display exception condition, the notification 603 may not be displayed.

If it is determined that the charging and using are simultaneously performed at the fixed position, the controller 180 can determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied.

Referring to FIG. 6D, the controller 180 may obtain information on the battery and determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal. Specifically, the controller 180 obtains information on the maximum chargeable capacity of the battery and compares the maximum chargeable capacity of the battery (life of the battery) with a reference value to determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal. Generally, when the battery is used for a long time, the maximum charge capacity is decreased. In addition, since the controller 180 can measure the maximum chargeable capacity of the battery through the voltage of the battery, the controller 180 can measure the life of the battery. For example, the control unit 180 may determine that the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal when the maximum charge capacity of the battery is reduced to 70% or less as compared with the maximum charge capacity at the time of initial manufacture of the battery.

In addition, the controller 180 may display a notification 604 on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 that it is necessary to replace the battery with a new battery if there is no diagnostic result display exception condition. However, the notification 604 may not be displayed when the diagnostic result display exception condition exists.

In one embodiment, the control unit 180 may determine the diagnostic result display exception condition in consideration of the usage pattern of the user.

For example, when it is determined that the user uses the mobile terminal 100 while replacing a plurality of batteries, the controller 180 may determine that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied. Specifically, the control unit 180 may determine that the battery is replaced when the power of the mobile terminal 100 is turned on again, and the remaining power of the battery suddenly changes. If the number of times of battery replacement is measured in a predetermined period and the number of times of battery replacement is more than a predetermined value, the controller 180 may determine that the user of the mobile terminal 100 is using the battery of the mobile terminal 100 while replacing the battery have. When the user of the mobile terminal 100 is used while replacing the battery of the mobile terminal 100, it can be determined that the display exception condition is satisfied even when the life of some batteries has passed. However, in some embodiments, when all of the plurality of batteries have passed the life span, it can be determined that the diagnosis result display exception condition is not satisfied.

Referring to FIG. 6E, the controller 180 may obtain information about the battery and determine whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal. Specifically, the controller 180 obtains information on the remaining battery capacity, and determines whether the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal by comparing the remaining battery capacity with a predetermined capacity. For example, the controller 180 can measure the capacity of the battery and determine that the state of the mobile terminal 100 is abnormal when the maximum charge capacity decreases to 15% or less.

In addition, the controller 180 may display a notification (605) indicating that the battery needs to be charged on the display unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 when there is no diagnostic result display exception condition. However, the notification 605 may not be displayed when the diagnostic result display exception condition exists.

In one embodiment, the control unit 180 may determine the diagnostic result display exception condition in consideration of the usage pattern of the user.

For example, the control unit 180 may acquire information on the start time of charging the expected battery of the mobile terminal 100. [ The control unit 180 can obtain the estimated charging start time based on the measured time. However, the expected charging start time can be variously obtained, such as an average of the charging start time of the last month, and an average of the charging start time of the same day of the last two months. Specifically, when the user of the mobile terminal 100 starts charging the battery of the mobile terminal 100 at 11:00 PM on an average Monday for the last two months on the current day of the week, the charging time for the estimated battery may be obtained at 11:00 PM have. If the remaining battery capacity is compared with the information on the charging start time of the expected battery and the remaining battery is used to determine that the mobile terminal 100 can be used until the start of charging of the battery, It can be judged that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied.

That is, when the user takes necessary action corresponding to the abnormal state or when the abnormal condition can not be avoided in consideration of the surrounding environment, when the control unit 180 determines that the diagnostic result display exception condition is satisfied and the diagnostic result is displayed can do.
