A mobile terminal and a method of controlling a mobile terminal may be provided. The mobile terminal may include a display to display one of a plurality of wallpapers including at least one icon; and a controller to display at least two of the plurality of wallpapers and a plurality of preview screens corresponding to the plurality of wallpapers on the display upon reception of an input of moving at least one icon, moving of the at least one icon being displayed on the displayed wallpapers and preview screens. The mobile terminal can display a movement of icon being displayed on the displayed wallpapers and preview screens. Accordingly, a user may intuitively recognize a location of icon and effectively move a location of icon.

Mobile terminal and method of controlling the same

A mobile terminal including a terminal body; a wireless communication unit configured to provide wireless communication; a display unit, and a controller configured to deactivate the display unit, and receive a plurality of taps applied to the deactivated display unit, and display information of a preset function on the display unit based on a tapped pattern formed with the plurality of taps matching a preset pattern and a current state of the terminal.

Mobile terminal and control method for the mobile terminal

An image-based information retrieval system, including a mobile telephone, a remote recognition server, and a remote media server, the mobile telephone having a built-in camera and a communication link for transmitting an image from the built-in camera to the remote recognition server and for receiving mobile media content from the remote media server, the remote recognition server for matching an image from the mobile telephone with an object representation in a database and forwarding an associated text identifier to the remote media server, and the remote media server for forwarding mobile media content to the mobile telephone based on the associated text identifier.

Mobile image-based information retrieval system

An image-based information retrieval system is disclosed that includes a mobile telephone and a remote server. The mobile telephone has a built-in camera and a communication link for transmitting an image from the built-in camera to the remote server. The remote server has an optical character recognition engine for generating a first confidence value based on an image from the mobile telephone, an object recognition engine for generating a second confidence value based on an image from the mobile telephone, a face recognition engine for generating a third confidence value based on an image from the mobile telephone, and an integrator module for receiving the first, second, and third confidence values and generating a recognition output.

Image-based search engine for mobile phones with camera

A mobile terminal including a display configured to display information; a short range communication module configured to exchange a signal with an external control device; and a controller configured to receive the signal from the external control device, determine a context at a timing point of receiving the signal, and control an operation corresponding to the signal to be performed in the determined context. Further, the operation includes at least one of activation/deactivation of the display, an activation/deactivation of a lock mode of the mobile terminal, a volume operation and a camera operation.

Mobile terminal and controlling method thereof

A digital video or still camera including optical character recognition and translator functions to translate text included in captured images. Cursor control allows the user to identify the desired text with the image. Translation is also possible on text included in images replayed from the camera's memory.
