Abstract

According to one embodiment, a content transmission apparatus according to one embodiment of the invention includes a communication module configured to carry out wireless communication with a partner apparatus, a detection module configured to detect a motion of the content transmission apparatus, and a transmission control module configured to control the communication module to transmit content to the partner apparatus and to transmit correction information corresponding to the motion of the content transmission apparatus detected by the detection module during transmission of the content to the partner apparatus.

Claims

1. A content transmission apparatus comprising:

a communication module configured to carry out wireless communication with a partner apparatus;

a detection module configured to detect a motion of the content transmission apparatus; and

a transmission control module configured to control the communication module to transmit content to the partner apparatus and to transmit correction information corresponding to the motion of the content transmission apparatus detected by the detection module during transmission of the content to the partner apparatus.

2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the detection module is configured to detect a moving direction of the content transmission apparatus, and

the transmission control module configured to transmit, to the partner apparatus, the correction information corresponding to the moving direction of the content transmission apparatus detected by the detection module.

3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the transmission control module is configured to transmit, to the partner apparatus, the correction information about the direction of the content transmission apparatus to be moved in the direction opposite to the moving direction of the content transmission apparatus.

4. A content display system including a content transmission apparatus and a content display apparatus,

the content transmission apparatus comprising:

a first communication module configured to carry out wireless communication with the content display apparatus;

a detection module configured to detect a motion of the content transmission apparatus; and

a transmission control module configured to control the first communication module to transmit content to the content display apparatus and to transmit correction information corresponding to the motion of the content transmission apparatus detected by the detection module during transmission of the content to the content display apparatus, and

the content display apparatus comprising;

a second communication module configured to carry out wireless communication with the content transmission apparatus; and

a display module configured to display the content and the correction information received by the second communication module.

5. The system of claim 4, wherein the content display apparatus comprises:

a radio field strength detection module configured to detect a radio field strength received by the second communication module; and

a display control module configured to control a contrast of the display module based on the radio field strength detected by the radio field strength detection module.

6. The system of claim 5, wherein the display control module is configured to control the display module to a first brightness value based a first radio field strength value detected by the radio field strength detection module, and controls the display module to a second brightness value darker than the first brightness value based on a second radio field strength value smaller than the first radio field strength value detected by the radio field strength detection module.
