Abstract:
An electronic device and a method for controlling the electronic device are provided. The method includes acquiring event information and determining a target user from among a plurality of users to receive the event information, based on stored user information. Additionally, the method includes acquiring device information about at least one of the electronic device and at least one external electronic device corresponding to the target user, determining a target device to provide the event information, based on the device information, and then providing an event output signal for outputting the event information, to the target device. Further, the method includes determining a method for outputting the event information through the target device, based on an event output scheme of the target device, and a privacy level of the event information.
Abstract:
A method for generating an image combined with audio, and image display and audio output includes displaying an image, when a first image object within the image is selected, outputting a first audio object corresponding to the first image object and, when a second image object within the image is selected, outputting a second audio object corresponding to the second image object.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for operating a camera function in a portable terminal are provided. State information representing at least one of a direction and a rotation state of the portable terminal is obtained, and at least one of a sequence of reading an image from a camera sensor and an appropriate user interface is determined depending on the state information. Thus, the camera function is performed depending on the determined sequence or user interface.
