Abstract
A mobile device for supporting an external output function has a projector module and at least one image sensing module. The mobile device activates the image sensing module when entering into an external output mode, and outputs screen data externally in the external output mode. The mobile device detects a user interaction based on the image sensing module in the external output mode, and controls the external output of the screen data, according to the user interaction. An image of the screen data outputted externally may be acquired using the image sensing module and, based on the acquired image, new content may be created.

20. A method of controlling an external output of a mobile device, the method comprising:
-
projecting an image from the mobile device to an external object while operating in an external output mode; detecting a user interaction while operating in the external output mode; and controlling the projection of the image according to the detected user interaction, wherein the user interaction is one of a first user interaction occurring between the mobile device and the external object and a second user interaction occurring around the mobile device but not necessarily between the mobile device and the external object.
