1 is a perspective view illustrating an example of a hair-wearing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. 1, a head wearable device 100 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 150 mounted on a user's head to provide an image to a user's eyes, A display unit 130 which is fixed to the housing and is provided in an area corresponding to a position of the eye of the user and at least one input button 121 or a touchpad 125). While the present disclosure discloses various embodiments by exemplifying a head wearable device, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and various types of wearable devices described above can be used.

2 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of a head wearable device according to an embodiment of the present invention. 2, the functional unit for processing the operation of the head wearable device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a motion sensor unit 110, a user input confirmation unit 120, A display unit 130, a content display control unit 140, and a content storage unit 170. [

3 is a diagram illustrating a relationship between a head wearable device and motion information according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the user 200 may mount the head wearable device 100 on the user's head 210. As the user moves the head part 210 of the user while viewing the contents provided through the display 130 provided in the head wearable device 100, the movement sensor part 110 moves the head- (150) to detect motion information of the head wearable device (100). For example, the motion sensor unit 110 detects motion information (e.g., acceleration, angular velocity, and the like) for the three axes directions (x, y, z) of the head wearable device 100, And the detected motion information can be provided to the content display control unit 140.

According to one embodiment, the user input confirmation unit 120 may include an input button 121 and a user input detection unit 127. The input button 121 is provided in one area of the housing of the head wearable device 100 and can transmit a user's input. For example, the input button 121 may provide a user input detection unit 127 with an input signal generated by a user pressing the input button 121 or touching the input button 121. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a user input interface for processing a user input may use an input interface other than the input button 121. For example, it may include a touch pad 125 that can process a user's input based on a user's touch input.

According to one embodiment, the user input detection unit 127 may transmit a signal transmitted by the input button 121 to the content display control unit 140 (or the motion sensor unit 110). The user input detecting unit 127 may transmit a control signal associated with a signal input from the input button 121 to the content display control unit 140 (or the motion sensor unit 110) according to a specified rule. For example, when the input signal is provided from the input button 121 for a predetermined first time or longer in a state in which the power of the head-mounted apparatus 100 is not started, the user input detection unit 127 outputs a power- And transmit it to the content display control unit 140. The user input detection unit 127 detects that the power supply to the head wearable type apparatus 100 is in the on state when the input signal is supplied from the input button 121 for a predetermined first time or longer, And transmit it to the content display control unit 140.

According to one embodiment, the user input detecting unit 127 detects that the input signal is supplied from the input button 121 for a predetermined second time or more in a state in which the head-mounted device 100 is powered on, The motion information of the user may not be reflected. For example, a control signal (e.g., a display area fixed control signal) for fixing a content area displayed when the input signal is generated may be generated in association with the input signal without displaying a change according to a user's motion . And may transmit the control signal to the content display control unit 140 based on the information.

In addition, when the user inputs are confirmed through the input button 121 and the power supply start control signal, the power supply termination control signal and the display area fixed control signal are generated, the predetermined first time and the predetermined second time Can be set differently. Furthermore, the predetermined first time may be set to be larger than the predetermined second time.

As another example, the power supply start control signal, the power supply termination control signal, and the display area fixed control signal may be generated by different user inputs. For example, the power-on control signal and the power-off control signal are generated when a user input is generated through the input button 121 and a user input through the input button 121 is generated for the predetermined first time or longer, The input detector 127 may generate and provide the power start control signal or the power end control signal. As the user input is generated through the touch pad 127 and the user input through the touch pad 127 is generated for the second predetermined time or longer, the user input detecting unit 127 detects the display area fixed control signal Lt; / RTI >

According to one embodiment, the display area fixing control signal may be transmitted to at least one of the content display control unit 140 or the motion sensor unit 110. Also, at least one of the content display control unit 140 or the motion sensor unit 110 may display the content on the display unit 130 using the display area fixed control signal. In this connection, it is possible to process the operation of fixing the content area displayed on the display unit 130 without reflecting the user's motion information.

According to one embodiment, the content display control unit 140 can control the video output so that the content stored in the content storage unit 170 can be displayed on the display unit 130. [ For example, when the content display control unit 140 displays the content on the display unit 130, the content data is displayed on the display unit 130 in a direction corresponding to the user's motion information provided from the motion sensor unit 110 ) Of the user.

4 is a diagram illustrating a relationship between content and motion information output from a head wearable device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, the content may include content data for an area wider than an area that the display unit 130 of the head wearable device can display. For example, the content may include first content data 450 corresponding to the reference direction, second content data 451U corresponding to the upper direction with the reference direction as the center, 3 content data 451D, fourth content data 451L corresponding to the left direction with respect to the reference direction, fifth content data 451R corresponding to the right direction with respect to the reference direction, and the like . Based on the content thus configured, the content display control unit 140 can display the content data on the display unit 130 in a direction corresponding to the motion information.

For example, when the operation of the head wearable apparatus is started and a content display operation is started, the content display control unit 140 displays the first content data 450 corresponding to the initial reference direction on the display unit 130 can do. If the motion information received from the motion sensor unit 110 indicates that the motion information has been moved upward in the initial reference direction, the content display control unit 140 displays the motion information corresponding to the upward direction The second content data 451U can be displayed on the display unit 130. [ In this manner, the content display control unit 140 may reflect the motion information provided from the motion sensor unit 110 when the content is displayed on the display unit 130. [ For example, content data matching the motion information (e.g., acceleration in x, y, z axis directions, angular velocity, etc.) provided from the motion sensor unit 110 can be displayed on the display unit 130. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, in an exemplary relationship between content and motion information, an initial reference direction, an upward direction with respect to the initial reference direction, a downward direction with respect to the initial reference direction, The left direction with respect to the direction, or the right direction with respect to the initial reference direction. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the motion information (e.g., the acceleration in the x-, y-, and z-axis directions) may be stored in the content data 450, 451U, 451D, 451L, , Angular velocity, and the like) corresponding to the direction corresponding to the direction.

According to one embodiment, the head wearable device 100 may be provided to display contents in a state in which the user does not reflect motion information selectively, if desired. For example, there may be a situation where the user does not want the content data in the direction corresponding to the motion information to be displayed on the display unit 130. [ The user may want to watch content over the head wearable device 100 while sitting, move to another location, or view content over the head wearable device 100 in a lying state. In this case, when the content is displayed on the display unit 130 by reflecting the motion information, content data of a different area that the user intends may be displayed on the display unit 130. [ For example, when the content display control unit 140 receives a control signal (e.g., a display area fixed control signal) provided from the user input confirmation unit 120, the content display control unit 140 may display the content without reflecting the motion information. The content display control unit 140 receives the control signal (for example, the display area fixed control signal) provided from the user input confirmation unit 120, It is possible to provide the contents displayed on the display unit 130 (e.g., contents in the direction indicated on the display).

According to one embodiment, the content display control unit 140 receives a control signal (e.g., a display area fixed control signal) provided from the user input confirmation unit 120, and controls to stop the provision of the motion information And transmits the signal to the movement sensor unit 110. In this case, the motion sensor unit 110 may not provide motion information to the content display controller 140, or may be provided to stop the movement of the motion sensor unit 110.

According to one embodiment, the user input confirmation unit 120 provides the display area fixing control signal to the content display control unit 140, and the content information provided by the user through the display unit 130 corresponds to the reference direction As shown in Fig. For example, the user can move the first content data 450 corresponding to the reference direction upward in the reference direction. The second content data 451U corresponding to the upper direction with respect to the reference direction may be displayed on the display unit 130 in association therewith. Thereafter, the user input confirmation unit 120 may provide the display area fixed control signal to the content display control unit 140 by the user's input. Based on this, the second content data 451U corresponding to the upper direction with respect to the reference direction can be reset to the user's reference direction.

According to one embodiment, the user input confirmation unit 120 provides the display area fixing control signal to the motion sensor unit 110, and thus the motion sensor unit 11 functionally connected to the head wearable device 100, Can be reset. For example, an error may occur with respect to the user (e.g., position, direction, altitude, etc.) while the motion sensor unit 110 continuously recognizes the motion of the user. When the contents data displayed on the display unit 130 and the information transmitted through the motion sensor unit 110 do not match with each other, the reference point used in the motion sensor unit 11, (For example, origin) can be initialized.

Also, as another embodiment, the content display control unit 140 may be provided to reset the motion information upon receiving the control signal (i.e., the display area fixed control signal) provided from the user input confirmation unit 120. [ To this end, the content display control unit 140 receives a display area fixed control signal provided from the user input confirmation unit 120, and provides a control signal requesting the motion sensor unit 110 to reset the motion information to the motion sensor unit 110 , The motion sensor unit 110 may reset the motion information, and then provide the reset motion information to the content display control unit 140. In another embodiment, the user input confirmation unit 120 provides the display area fixed control signal to the motion sensor unit 110, the motion sensor unit 110 may reset the motion information, To the content display control unit 140. [0064] Accordingly, the content display control unit 140 may reset the content display area by matching the currently displayed content display area with the reset motion information. That is, the content display control unit 140 resets the currently displayed content display area to the reference area, applies the reset motion information to the reset reference area, and stores the content data corresponding to the direction corresponding to the input motion information Lt; / RTI >

Further, as the reset motion information is received, the content display control unit 140 resets the content display area to the initial reference direction set at the start of operation of the head wearable device, and updates the content data corresponding to the initial reference direction , For example, the first content data 450 may be displayed.

5A to 5C are views illustrating contents displayed in accordance with motion information in a head wearable apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5A, for example, when the operation of the head wearable apparatus 100 is started and the display operation of the content is started, the content display control unit 140 displays the first content data 450 on the display unit 130.

5B, as the user moves the head to the right side of the reference direction about the reference direction, the movement sensor unit 110 moves toward the right side of the reference direction about the reference direction, for example, And provides the content display control unit 140 with the motion information indicating that it has been moved. The content display control unit 140 checks the fifth content data 451R corresponding to the right direction with respect to the reference direction and displays the fifth content data 451R on the display unit 130 . Thereafter, as the input button 111 is pushed by the user, the user input detecting unit 127 can check the signal generated by the input button 121. (Or display area fixed control signal) to the content display control unit 140 (or the motion sensor unit 110) when the signal is input for a predetermined second time or more. The content display control unit 140 may display the motion information provided from the motion sensor unit 110 without reflecting the motion information (for example, the acceleration in the x-, y-, and z-axis directions, (For example, the right direction with respect to the reference direction). And displays the fifth content data 451R corresponding to the fixed direction on the display unit 130 in association therewith.

As shown in FIG. 5C, for example, in a state where the input button 111 is pressed by the user, the user can move the head back to the reference direction (e.g., the left direction of the user). Since the input button 111 is pressed by the user, the display area fixed control signal can be continuously input. Corresponding to this, the content display controller 140 does not reflect the motion information (e.g., the acceleration in the x-, y-, and z-axis directions, and the angular velocity) received from the motion sensor unit 110, (For example, the right direction with respect to the reference direction). In connection with this, the fifth content data 451R corresponding to the fixed direction is displayed on the display unit 130. [

According to one embodiment, when the user input is not determined in the user input detection unit 127, the content display control unit 140 reflects the motion information received from the motion sensor unit 110 and displays the motion information on the display unit 130 You can reset the content. For example, after performing the operation shown in FIG. 5C, if the user does not press the input button 111, the input of the display area fixed control signal may be canceled. In association with this, the content display control unit 140 can reset the display of the content data displayed on the display unit 130. [

Thereafter, if the user does not press the input button 111, the input of the display area fixed control signal is canceled, and the content display control unit 140 resets the display of the content data displayed on the display unit 130. [

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a relationship between content and motion information output from a head wearable device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 6, a relationship between content and motion information, which is reset through the operations of FIGS. . For example, the content may include first content data 451R corresponding to the re-set reference direction, second content data 451R-U corresponding to the upward direction about the re-set reference direction, The fourth content data 450 corresponding to the left direction with respect to the reset reference direction, the second content data 451R-D corresponding to the second reference data, Fifth content data 451R 'corresponding to the right direction, and the like. Based on the content thus configured, the content display control unit 140 reflects the motion information on the basis of the reset reference direction, and displays the content data in the direction corresponding to the motion information on the display unit 130 . For example, when the motion information received from the motion sensor unit 110 indicates that the motion information has been moved upward in the reference direction, the content display control unit 140 displays the motion information The second content data 451R-U corresponding to the direction can be displayed on the display unit 130. [ The content display control unit 140 may display the content data (for example, 451R-D) based on the motion information (e.g., acceleration in the x, y and z axis directions, angular velocity, , 450, 451R ', etc.) can be displayed on the display unit 130.

As described above, the content displayed according to the motion information in the head wearable device according to the embodiment of the present invention is illustrated through FIGS. 5A to 5C and FIG. In the above-described embodiment, when the input button 111 is pressed by the user and the user moves the head back to the reference direction (i.e., left direction), the input button 111 is pressed by the user (For example, the reference (for example, the reference) is not reflected in the motion information (for example, the acceleration in the x-, y-, and z-axis directions and the angular velocity) received from the motion sensor unit 110, And the fifth content data 451R corresponding to the fixed direction is displayed on the display unit 130. In the example of FIG.

Alternatively, the head wearable device according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include a content display area displayed on the head wearable device 100 by a display area fixed control signal generated based on a user input, (I.e., an initial reference direction) that is set in the initial operation of the display device 100 (e.g., the display device 100).

For example, referring to FIG. 5A, when the operation of the head wearable device 100 is started and a content display operation is started, the content display control unit 140 displays first content data 450 corresponding to the initial reference direction And displays it on the display unit 130.

5B, as the user moves his / her head in the right direction about the initial reference direction, the movement sensor unit 110 indicates that the movement has been moved to the right with respect to the initial reference direction To the content display control unit 140. The content display control unit 140 receives the motion information. Accordingly, the content display control unit 140 confirms the fifth content data 451R corresponding to the right direction with respect to the initial reference direction, and displays the fifth content data 451R on the display unit 130 . Thereafter, as the input button 111 is pressed by the user, the user input detecting unit 127 confirms the signal generated by the input button 121, and when the signal is inputted over a predetermined second time period, (I.e., a display area fixed control signal) to the content display control unit 140. [ Accordingly, the content display control unit 140 provides a control signal requesting to reset the motion information to the motion sensor unit 110, and after the motion sensor unit 110 resets the motion information, And provides it to the content display control unit 140. Then, as the reset motion information is received, the content display control unit 140 resets the display direction of the content data to the initial reference direction, and updates the content data corresponding to the initial reference direction, for example, The first content data 450 may be displayed as shown in FIG.

At this time, the user input detecting unit 127 provides the display area fixing control signal to the content display control unit 140, and the content display control unit 140 transmits a control signal requesting the motion information resetting to the motion sensor unit 110 The user input confirmation unit 120 provides the display area fixed control signal to the motion sensor unit 110 and the motion sensor unit 110 outputs the display area fixed control signal The motion information may be reset.

A head wearable device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a user input confirmation unit 1200 for confirming an input of a user, a motion sensor unit 110 for confirming motion information of a device, a display unit 130, A content display control unit 140 for displaying the content through the display unit 130, controlling the display region of the content in accordance with the motion information, and changing the display region of the content by reflecting the input of the user ).

7 is a flowchart showing a content display control method according to an embodiment of the present invention. 7, when the operation of the electronic device (e.g., a wearable device such as a head wearable device) is started and the display operation of the content is started, at operation 710, the electronic device displays the first content Data (see FIG. 4, 450) can be displayed. In operation 720, the motion information provided through the motion sensor may be confirmed. In operation 730, the electronic device may control the display of the content data by reflecting the identified motion information. For example, when the motion information indicates that the motion information has been moved upward in the reference direction, the electronic device displays second content data (refer to FIG. 4, 451U) corresponding to the upward direction about the reference direction can do. In addition, when the motion information indicates that the motion information has been moved downward about the reference direction, the electronic device can display the third content data 451D corresponding to the downward direction about the reference direction. If the motion information indicates that the motion information has been shifted in the left direction with respect to the reference direction, the electronic device can display the fourth content data 451L corresponding to the left direction with respect to the reference direction. When the motion information indicates that the motion information is shifted rightward with respect to the reference direction, the electronic device can display the fifth content data 451R corresponding to the right direction with the reference direction as a center.

At operation 740, a user input interface (e.g., input button, touchpad, etc.) provided in the electronic device may be used to determine whether user input has occurred.

In operation 750, for example, the electronic device may generate a control signal (e.g., a display area fixed control signal) based on a user input interface (e.g., an input button, a touchpad, etc.) And when the display area fixed control signal is inputted, the content can be displayed without reflecting the motion information. According to one embodiment, the display area fixing control signal may be generated when a user's input is generated over a predetermined period of time through a user input interface (e.g., an input button, a touch pad, etc.). For example, when the display area fixing control signal is input, the electronic device does not reflect the motion information provided through the motion sensor, etc., but re-sets the content display area based on the currently displayed direction, The content data for the reference direction can be displayed (operation 750). For example, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the content may include first 'content data 451R corresponding to the re-set reference direction, second' content data 451R- U '), third' content data 451R-D 'corresponding to the lower direction around the reset reference direction, fourth' content data 450 corresponding to the left direction about the reset reference direction, , Fifth 'content data 451R' corresponding to the right direction with respect to the reset reference direction, and the like. Based on the content thus configured, the electronic device can display the content data in the direction corresponding to the motion information by reflecting the motion information on the basis of the reset reference direction. In other words, the electronic device proceeds to step 740 if the display operation of the content is not terminated (760: NO). If the user input is not generated in step 740 (No in step 740), the electronic device proceeds to step 720. Accordingly, the electronic device can display the content data in the direction corresponding to the motion information reflecting the motion information around the reset reference direction.
