A function of the display apparatus 100 controlled by the control apparatus 200 may be: to change a channel of the display apparatus 100, adjust a volume, select terrestrial broadcast, cable broadcast, or satellite broadcast, or set a configuration in response to a user's input.


The term ‘user’ refers to a person who controls a function or an operation of the display apparatus 100 using the control apparatus 200. Examples of the user may include, but is not limited to, a viewer, a manager, and an installer.


The display apparatus 100 may show at least one item on a display 115.


An “item” refers to a visual object displayed on display apparatus 100 to represent corresponding content, such as an icon, thumbnail, etc. For example, an item may represent an image content such as a movie or a drama, an audio content such as music, an application, a broadcast channel, and/or history information of content accessed by the user.


A plurality of items may be displayed as images. For example, when an item represents a movie or a drama, the item may be displayed as a movie poster or a drama poster. If an item represents music, the item may be displayed as a music album poster. If an item represents an application, the item may be displayed as an image of the application or a screen shot of the application captured when the application was executed most recently. If an item represents a broadcast channel, the item may be displayed as a screen shot of the broadcast channel captured when the broadcast channel was last viewed by the user or an image of a program that is being currently broadcast on the channel. If an item represents history information of content accessed by the user, the item may be displayed as an image of a screen that was executed most recently.


Also, an item may represent an interface through which the display apparatus 100 and an external apparatus are connected to each other, or may represent the external apparatus connected to the display apparatus 100. For example, an item may represent a specific port of the image display apparatus 100, through which the external apparatus is connected. Examples of a port represented by an item may include, but are not limited to, a high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) port, a component jack, a PC port, and a universal serial bus (USB) port.

Referring to FIG. 1A, the display apparatus 100 may display a plurality of items, e.g., an item 1 through an item 9, on the display 115. The items may or may not have the same size. In this exemplary embodiment, the items have different sizes, as shown in FIG. 1A.


An item may include text. In FIG. 1A, each of the items displayed on the display 115 includes text. Sizes of text included in the items may be the same or different from one another.


The display apparatus 100 may control the items using a cursor 20 that moves through the items according to a user's input on the control apparatus 200. In other words, the control apparatus 200 may function as a pointing device that controls the cursor 20. The display apparatus 100 may control the items using a focus object 10 to select one or more items among all the items displayed on the display 115 according to a user's input on the control apparatus 200. The user may move the focus object 10 using a direction key that is provided on the control apparatus 200.


A “focus object” refers to an object that moves through the items according to a user input. The focus object may be used to select one or more items among the entire displayed items, and may be implemented in various manners. For example, the focus object 10 may be implemented by drawing a thick line around the focused item, as shown in FIG. 1A. The focus object may be implemented in the form of a cursor 20.


Alternatively, the focus object itself may be invisible. In this case, the user may recognize a location of the focus object based on text of the focused item, which is distinctly transformed when the item is focused. More detailed explanation about transforming text of items will be provided below with reference to FIGS. 6A through 8B.


Referring to FIG. 1A, when the user positions the focus object 10 on a specific item by manipulating the control apparatus 200, the display apparatus 100 may transform and output text included in the specific item, i.e., the focused item, without changing the layout of the displayed items. In FIG. 1A, as the focus is placed over the “item 7,” a size of text of the item 7 increases. In an exemplary embodiment, the display apparatus 100 may transform the focused item differently. For example, the display apparatus 100 may change a size, a color, a transparency, an outline, and/or a font of text included in the focused item.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a display method according to an exemplary embodiment.


In operation 510, the display apparatus 100 displays at least one item which includes text.


The display apparatus 100 may provide a plurality of items as shown in, for example, FIGS. 6A through 6C. However, it will be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art that FIGS. 6A through 6C are exemplary and the number of items and an arrangement of the items on a screen may be different in an exemplary embodiment.


Referring to FIG. 6A, a plurality of items representing video clips are displayed on a screen 600 of the display 115 according to an exemplary embodiment. The items displayed on the screen 600 may have the same size, and each item 610 may include a text area 611 and an image area 612. Sizes of the text areas 611 and the image areas 612 of the items 610 may be the same. Text that describes content represented by the item 610 may be displayed in the text area 611 and a thumbnail image that visually represents the item 610 may be displayed in the image area 612.


Referring to FIG. 6B, a plurality of items about news are displayed on a screen 620 of the display 115. The items displayed on the screen 620 may have different sizes, and each item may include an image area 631 and a text area 632. Sizes of the text areas 632 and the image areas 631 included in the items may be different from one another. Text that describes content represented by each item 630 may be displayed in the text area 632 and a thumbnail image that visually represents the item 630 may be displayed in the image area 631.


Referring to FIG. 6C, according to an exemplary embodiment, a plurality of items about applications are displayed on a screen 640 of the display 115. The items displayed on the screen 640 may have the same size, and each item 650 may include a text area 652 and an image area 651. Sizes of the text areas 652 and the image areas 651 of the items 650 may be the same and text that describes a name of each application may be displayed in the text area 652 and a thumbnail image that visually represents the application may be displayed in the image area 651.


Referring back to FIG. 5, in operation 520, the display apparatus 100 receives an input of the control apparatus 200 that focuses an item displayed on the display 115.


An input of the control apparatus 200 may be generated by pointing at a specific item using a pointing device or moving the focus object from an item to another item using 4-direction keys. It will be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art that the input of the control apparatus may also be received via other interfaces such as a touchpad, motion recognition, voice recognition, etc.


An input of the control apparatus 200 for controlling an item will now be explained in more detail. The display apparatus 100 may display the cursor 20 on the display 115 in response to an input of the control apparatus 200. As the user moves the control apparatus 200, e.g., a pointing device, the cursor 20 displayed on the screen of the display 115 moves correspondingly to a position at which the control apparatus 200 is pointing.


For example, when the display apparatus 100 receives a signal indicating that the user's finger touches the touchpad provided on a central portion of the control apparatus 200, the display apparatus 100 may initiate a pointing mode and display the cursor 20 on the display 115. When the user moves the control apparatus 200 while the user's finger is touching the touchpad, a motion sensor (e.g., an acceleration sensor and/or a gyro sensor) provided in the control apparatus 200 may detect the movement of the control apparatus 200 and output a motion sensor value corresponding to the detected movement, and the controller 280 of the control apparatus 200 may control the wireless communicator 220 to transmit the output motion sensor value to the display apparatus 100. The display apparatus 100 may determine a position of the cursor 20 based on the motion sensor value received from the control apparatus 200 and may display the position of the cursor 20 on the display 115. The position of the cursor 20 may be determined by the control apparatus 200.


Also, for example, a touch pad may be used to move the focus object from one item to another. Further, when the touchpad of the control apparatus 200 is physically pressed in a similar manner of pressing a general button, a switch provided under the touchpad may operate to execute a specific item. For example, a multimedia content may be reproduced if the item represents the multimedia content, an image or text may be displayed if the item represents the image or the text, and an application may be executed if the item represents the application.


According to an exemplary embodiment, the display apparatus 100 may control items displayed on the display 115 based on an input of the direction key of the control apparatus 200.


According to an exemplary embodiment, when the direction key input 203 is detected while the display apparatus is not in a directional input mode, the display apparatus 100 may initiate the directional input mode in which a user may move the focus object using a direction key mounted on the control apparatus 200. A focus object may be displayed on a specific item by applying a focus visual effect to the item according to a preset algorithm to indicate that the specific item is focused. For example, when an input of the direction key provided on the control apparatus 200 is received for the first time, the display apparatus 100 may apply a focus object to a first item among the items displayed on the display 115. According to an exemplary embodiment, a focus object may be implemented by surrounding an edge of a focused item with a thick line or making a color or a transparency of a focused item different from those of other items.


When an input 203 of the direction key provided on the control apparatus 200 is detected while a specific item is focused, the display apparatus 100 may move the focus object from the specific item to an adjacent item corresponding to the input of the direction key and display the focused item.


For example, while the item 2 is focused on the display 115 of FIG. 1A, when an input of the down direction key is received from the control apparatus 200, the display apparatus 100 may move the focus object 10 from the item 2 to the item 7.


For another example, when an input 203 of the right direction key is received from the control apparatus 200 while the item 5 is focused, the display apparatus 100 may move the focus object 10 from the item 5 to the item 7.


Referring back to FIG. 5, in operation 530, the display apparatus 100 may transform and display text of the focused item in response to an input of the control apparatus 200.


For example, in response to the user's input 203 on the control apparatus 200, which focuses the item 610 that is a first item displayed on the screen 600 of FIG. 6A, the display apparatus 100 may increase a size of text included in the text area 611 by increasing a size of the text area 611 of the focused item 610, without changing a size of the image area 612. As a result, a part of the image area 612 may be covered by the text area 611. In this case, since a size of the focused item 610 is not changed, other items on the screen 600 may be viewed and recognized without obstruction. Also, a focus object, i.e., a focus visual effect, may be applied to the item 610 in order to indicate that the item 610 is focused. Referring to FIG. 6A, the focus object 613 indicates that the item 610 is focused.


For another example, in response to the user's input 203 that focuses the item 630, which is a first item in a lower line of items displayed on the screen 620 of FIG. 6B, the display apparatus 100 may increase a size of the text area 632 of the focused item 630 as shown in the right figure of FIG. 6B to increase a size of text included in the text area 632. Referring to FIG. 6B, the focus object 633 indicates that the item 630 is focused, by displaying a bold line along the edge of the focused item 630


For another example, in response to the user's input 203 that focuses the item 650, which is a first item displayed on the screen 640 of FIG. 6C, the display apparatus 100 may increase a size of the text area 652 of the focused item 650 as shown in the right figure of FIG. 6C to increase a size of text included in the text area 652. Referring to FIG. 6C, the focus object 633 indicates that the item 650 is focused, by displaying a bold line along the edge of the focused item 650.



FIGS. 7A through 7I illustrate various methods of transforming text included in a focused item, according to an exemplary embodiment.


Referring to FIG. 7A, an item 710 includes a text area 711 and an image area 712. The text area 711 includes text saying <Game of Thrones Season 4 Trailer Best Scenes> that describes the item 710, and the image area 712 includes a thumbnail image that visually represents the content corresponding to the item 710.


When the item 710 is focused, the text area 711 and the text saying <Game of Thrones Season 4 Trailer Best Scenes> included in the text area 711 may be enlarged. Due to the enlargement of the text area 711, a part of the image area 712 may be covered by the enlarged text area 711, so a part of the thumbnail image may not be displayed. Referring to FIG. 7A, s2, which refers to a size of the text after the item 710 is focused, is greater than s1 which refers to a size of the text before the item 710 is focused.


A size to which text is enlarged may be different in exemplary embodiments. For example text may be enlarged such that users with low vision can recognize the text.


A focus object 713 may be applied to the item 710 in order to indicate that the item 710 is focused. For example, the focus object 713 may draw a line around the focused item 710, as shown in the right figure of FIG. 7A.


Referring to FIG. 7B, the item 710 includes the text area 711 and the image area 712. The text area 711 includes the text saying <Game of Thrones Season 4 Trailer Best Scenes> that describes the item 710, and the image area 712 includes a thumbnail image that visually represents content about the item 710.


When the item 710 is focused, i.e., when the focus object 713 is displayed on the item 710, the text area 711 and the text saying <Game of Thrones Season 4 Trailer Best Scenes> included in the text area 711 may be enlarged. Due to the enlargement of the text area 711, the whole image area 712 is covered and thus the thumbnail image is not displayed any more.


According to an exemplary embodiment, since it is more important for users with low vision to recognize the text than the image, even though the thumbnail image of the image area 712 is covered, a size of the text may be increased by maximizing a size of the text area 711 while maintaining a size of the item 710.


Referring to FIG. 7C, when the item 710 is focused, i.e., when the focus object 713 is displayed on the item 710, the layout of the text area 711 and the image area 712 may be maintained and only the text saying <Game of Thrones Season 4 Trailer Best Scenes> included in the text area 711 may be enlarged. Due to the enlargement of the text area 711, a part of the text may be overlaid on the image area 712.


As a part of the text is overlaid on the image area 712, in order to increase the readability of the text, a thickness of the text may be increased, a color of the text may be changed, and/or a font of the text may be changed.


Referring to FIG. 7D, when the item 710 is focused, i.e., when the focus object 713 is displayed on the item 710, the layout of the text area 711 and the image area 712 may be maintained and a color and/or a transparency of the text saying <Game of Thrones Season 4 Trailer Best Scenes> included in the text area 711 may be changed. The readability of the text may be increased by changing the color or the transparency of the text, even without increasing a size of the text.


Referring to FIG. 7E, when the item 710 is focused, i.e., when the focus object 713 is displayed on the item 710, the layout of the text area 711 and the image area 712 may be maintained and only a background color of the text saying <Game of Thrones Season 4 Trailer Best Scenes> included in the text area 711 may be changed. For example, the readability of the text may be increased by using complementary colors for the text and the background, even without increasing a size of the text.


Referring to FIG. 7F, when the item 710 is focused, i.e., when the focus object 713 is displayed on the item 710, the layout of the text area 711 and the image area 712 may be maintained and only a font of the text saying <Game of Thrones Season 4 Trailer Best Scenes> included in the text area 711 may be changed. For example, the readability of the text may be increased by changing the font of the text, even without increasing a size of the text.


Referring to FIG. 7G, when the item 710 is focused as shown in FIG. 7B, due to enlargement of the text area 711, the entire image area 712 may be covered by the text area 711 and thus the thumbnail image may not be displayed. If the text is enlarged such that a size of the item 710 is not enough to display the enlarged text, and a part of the text may not be displayed on the item 710. In this case, the part of the text that is not displayed on the item 710 may be displayed through scrolling or the like of the control apparatus 200 on the item 710. As such, since the size of the text area 711 may be greater than the size of the item 710, a size of the text displayed on the focused item 710 may be increased without restriction.


Referring to FIG. 7H, the item 710 may include only the text area 711 without an image area. When the item 710 is focused, the text included in the item 710 may be enlarged.


Referring to FIG. 7I, an item 720 may include only an image 721 without text. The image 721 may be a thumbnail image including text. When the item 720 is focused, the display apparatus 100 may display the text included in the image 721. For example, the display apparatus 100 may recognize and extract the text included in the image 721, increase a size of the extracted text, and display the enlarged text. Alternatively, when the item 720 is focused, the display apparatus 100 may enlarge only a part of the image 721 corresponding to the extracted text and may display the part 723 instead of the entire image 721.
