Abstract:
A capacitive type stylus is provided. The stylus includes a body made of a conductive material, the body being configured to be elastically deformed and, once deformed, to maintain a deformed shape until deformed again, a cover configured to cover at least a portion of the body and a pen tip connected to a first end of the body.
Abstract:
A smart cup including a main body having an opening; a cover configured to cover at least one portion of the opening; a driving unit configured to move the cover to open and close the at least one portion of the opening; a motion sensor configured to sense a motion of the main body; a proximity sensor configured to sense an object contacted with or adjacent to the opening; and a controller configured to control the driving unit to move the cover to open the at least one portion of the opening in response to the motion sensor sensing the motion of the main body and the proximity sensor sensing the object contacted with or adjacent to the opening, and control the driving unit to move the cover to close the at least one portion of the opening in response to the motion sensor sensing the motion of the main body and the proximity sensor not sensing the object contacted with or adjacent to the opening.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal having a case defining an external appearance thereof, and a method of manufacturing such a case, are provided. The case may include a base formed of a resin material and having a recessed portion, a sheet disposed within the recessed portion and formed of a material that is different from that of the base, the material of the sheet having greater rigidity than that of the base, and a reinforcing member filled between the base and the sheet to integrally couple the base and the sheet. The rigidity of the material of the reinforcing member may have an intermediate value between the rigidity of the base and the rigidity of the sheet.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal is provided. The mobile terminal includes a terminal body having a case that forms an exterior of the terminal body and a slot portion formed in the case, a socket mounted in the terminal body, the socket being configured to receive an external device through the slot portion, a slide door arranged behind the slot portion, the slide door being configured to slide to expose and cover the socket and a first spring coupled to one side of the slide door. When the external device is connected to the socket, the external device maintains the slide door in an open position and, when the external device is removed from the socket, the first spring provides a restorative force to move the slide door into a closed position covering the socket.
