Abstract
A method of facilitating communications between a mobile terminal and a display device includes determining an orientation of a mobile terminal with respect to a display device that is physically distinct of the mobile terminal, and determining a manner in which wireless content data is to be communicated between the display device and the mobile terminal. The method includes wirelessly transmitting the content data between the display device and the mobile terminal based on the determined manner. The determined manner of the communication can be based on determining whether the mobile terminal faces a display screen of the display device for wirelessly transmitting the content data from the mobile terminal to the display device or determining whether the mobile terminal faces away from the display screen of the display device for wirelessly transmitting the content data from the display device to the mobile terminal.

21. A method of facilitating communications between a mobile terminal and a display device, the method comprising:
-
establishing a network connection between a mobile terminal and a display device; determining that a proximity of the mobile terminal to the display device satisfies a requisite proximity; responsive to the determining that the mobile terminal and the display device satisfy the requisite proximity, determining an orientation of the mobile terminal with respect to the display device; processing the data related to the orientation of the mobile terminal with respect to the display device, the processing comprising determining one of a first orientation and a second orientation, the first orientation occurring where a first side of the mobile terminal faces a display screen of the display device and the second orientation occurring where a second side of the mobile terminal faces the display screen of the display device; responsive to determining the first orientation, receiving, at the display device, content data from the mobile terminal; and responsive to determining the second orientation, wirelessly transmitting, from the display device, content data to the mobile terminal. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45)

46. A mobile terminal which transmits and receives data to and from a display device over a wireless network, the mobile terminal comprising:
-
a storage unit storing content; a wireless communication unit transmitting and receiving data to and from the display device when the mobile terminal touches the display device; and a control unit controlling the wireless communication unit to perform different functions of transmitting and receiving data, according to an orientation of the display device, wherein, when a first surface of the mobile terminal touches a screen portion of the display device, data stored in the storage unit is transmitted to the display device through the wireless communication unit, and when a second surface of the mobile terminal touches the screen portion, data stored in the display device is received through the wireless communication unit. - View Dependent Claims (47)
