In this way, since the present disclosure may display the image of the target device existing in the field of view of the camera 100 and the content played on the target device and/or information related to the object in the content together on the display 310, users may obtain information in a more intuitive way.
Referring to
For example, while the summary information virtual image 12 including summary information on the object A in the content being played on the target device (TV) 10 is displayed on the display 310, when a user's swipe gesture is input to an arbitrary area of the display 310, the controller 600 may control the display 310 to display at least one virtual image 30 including other content information related to the identified object A around the target device 10.
At least one virtual image 30 including other content information related to the identified object A may include a thumbnail image of content playable on the target device 10.
At least one virtual image 30 including different content information may be arranged in various patterns. For example, at least one virtual image 30 including other content information is arranged in a circular shape to surround the image 10 of the target device, or in a vertical direction or a diagonal direction around the image 10 of the target device.
At least one virtual image 30 including different content information may be displayed for each category. Content for each category may be received from an external server (not shown). For example, the content category may be classified into a music video category, a movie category, and a photo category.
While at least one virtual image 30 corresponding to the first category is displayed around the image 10 of the target device, when a user's swipe gesture is input to an arbitrary area on the display 310, the controller 600 may display at least one virtual image (not shown) corresponding to the second category around the image 10 of the target device on the display 310. In this case, at least one virtual content image 30 corresponding to the first category is not displayed on the display 310 and may be displayed again according to a user's swipe gesture input.
In addition, the controller 600 may control the display 310 to enlarge and display at least one virtual image 30 including different content information according to the movement of the mobile apparatus 1 and the gaze direction of the camera 100. Specifically, as the user moves the mobile apparatus 1, the gaze direction of the camera 100 may be changed within a range in which the target device 10 is included in the field of view of the camera 100. In this case, the virtual image 30a positioned in the center line direction of the field of view of the camera 100 may be enlarged and displayed. In
In addition, the controller 600 may control the target device 10 to play content corresponding to the enlarged virtual image 30a according to the gaze direction of the camera 100.

That is, the controller 60 may divide the display area of the target device into a plurality of pieces in response to a user's input, and simultaneously display a plurality of contents in the divided areas.
Conversely, while both the first content and the second content are displayed on the target device, when a user's gesture of selecting the second content display area included in the image 10 of the target device and moving it outside the image 10 of the target device is input, the virtual image 30s corresponding to the second content may be displayed again outside the image 10 area of the target device. At this time, the target device plays the first content.
In addition, the controller 600 may control the target device to adjust the size of the first area and the second area in response to the user's zoom input for the first area or the second area of the target device image 10. For example, when the user inputs a gesture of zooming in the first area where the first content is displayed with respect to the image 10 of the target device displayed on the display 310, the controller 600 may generate a control signal that enlarges an area in which first content is being reproduced among the display area of the target device and transmits it to the target device. Accordingly, the target device may enlarge and display the first content display area, and reduce and display the second content display area.
