Abstract:
Methods and an electronic device for providing visual and haptic feedback are provided. At least one first touch made to an object displayed on a touch screen is detected. The object is transformed and displayed in response to movement of the first touch. At least one second touch made to the displayed object is detected. Visual feedback is displayed on the touch screen in response to the second touch, and haptic feedback corresponding to a predetermined haptic pattern is output using a vibration motor.
Abstract:
A portable terminal is provided. The portable terminal includes a shielding member attached to an inner surface of an external part, a shielding wall formed on the shielding member, a first coil attached to a surface of the shielding member that faces the inner surface of the external part, and a second coil attached to the surface of the shielding member, with the second coil surrounds the first coil on a same plane and the shielding wall being disposed between the first and second coil.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an electronic device including a battery, a case covering the battery, a wireless charging coil positioned between the battery and the case; and a communication antenna positioned between the battery and the wireless charging coil, wherein one of the communication antenna and the wireless charging coil is positioned to surround the other one of the communication antenna and the wireless charging coil, and wherein the communication antenna is spaced from the wireless charging coil by a predetermined distance and prevents interference between the communication antenna and the wireless charging coil.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method are provided for controlling haptic feedback of an input tool for a mobile terminal. The method includes detecting, by the mobile terminal, a hovering of the input tool over an object displayed on a touch screen display of the mobile terminal; identifying a property of the object; and transmitting, to the input tool, a control signal for haptic feedback corresponding to the property of the object.
Abstract:
A bendable user terminal device provided with a flexible display controls the flexible display to display information on a first area while the user terminal device is maintained in a bent state based on a detected bending state of the user terminal device, and, in response to the user terminal device changing from the bent state to an unbent state, controls the flexible display not to display the information on the first area.
Abstract:
A portable terminal is provided, including a cover member which is detachably provided at a rear surface of a main body of a terminal, a resonant antenna for a reception unit provided inside of the cover member, a reception circuit unit provided inside of the main body, and a connection unit for connecting the resonant antenna for a reception unit with the reception circuit unit. The portable terminal efficiently receives the signal power provided from a charger by arranging the resonant antenna inside of the cover member, and minimizes the thickness of the portable terminal by providing the reception circuit unit inside of the main body of the terminal.
Abstract:
A portable terminal and a method for providing a haptic effect to an input unit are provided. The method includes displaying at least one object on a touch screen, detecting a touch input by the input unit with respect to the object displayed on the touch screen, determining a preset mode based on the detected touch input of the input unit, and transmitting a control signal corresponding to a predetermined haptic pattern based on the preset mode to the input unit.
Abstract:
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a battery; a non-contact near field communication antenna; a wireless charging coil; and a case covering the battery, wherein the wireless charging coil is positioned between the battery and the case, and wherein one of the non-contact near field communication antenna and the wireless charging coil is positioned to surround the other one of the non-contact near field communication antenna and the wireless charging coil.
Abstract:
An actuator using an electro-active polymer is provided. The actuator includes a vibration plate fixed to an electronic device; at least one electro-active polymer attached to the vibration plate, and activated when electric voltage is applied thereto; and at least one mass joined to at least one a combination member disposed on the vibration plate.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for charging power using a resonant coupling. The apparatus includes a transmission power converter for converting Direct Current (DC) power to Alternating Current (AC) power, a controller for adjusting a Q factor of a transmission resonator by using a frequency of the converted AC power and a resonant frequency of the transmission resonator and controlling adaptive impedance matching, and a transmission resonator for wirelessly transmitting the converted AC power to a receiver through the adjusted Q factor and the controlled adaptive impedance matching, the transmission resonator having a coil installed in the transmitter.
