ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17439199 titled 'ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an electronic apparatus and a controlling method that allows users to enter a specific mode, perform a search based on their history in a related application, and display relevant information on a display. It also enables the display of images obtained through a connected camera.
- The electronic apparatus includes a display, memory, and processor.
- The processor controls the electronic apparatus by executing instructions stored in the memory.
- Users can enter a first mode by providing a user input.
- In response to the user input, the processor performs a search based on a search word corresponding to the user's history in a first application related to the first mode.
- The processor then displays a first image provided by the first application on a specific area of the display, based on the search result.
- Additionally, the processor can control the display to show a second image captured by a camera connected to the electronic apparatus on another area of the display.
