Abstract
A method for processing an input in a mobile terminal that recognizes inputs such as a visual input and/or voice input is provided. In the method, a position on a screen corresponding to a viewing direction of a user'"'"'s eyes is determined. An indicator corresponding to the determined position is displayed on the screen. When a relevant (i.e. actuating) signal is detected, an indicator is arranged on the desired object for selection.

6. A method for processing an input in a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
-
determining by a controller a viewing position on a display screen corresponding to a tracking of a user'"'"'s eyes and displaying an indicator on the display screen corresponding to the determined position on the screen being viewed; when a first signal is detected by at least one sensor of a plurality of sensors, the controller selecting an object arranged on the display by placing the indicator on an object designated to be rearranged in the display; when a second signal is detected by at least one sensor of the plurality of sensors, moving a display of the selected object to correspond with movement of a user'"'"'s eyes; and when a third signal is detected by at least one sensor of the plurality of sensors, arranging the selected object on a relevant position of the display screen. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9)

13. An apparatus for processing an input in a mobile terminal, the apparatus comprising:
-
an output unit for outputting voice data and/or display data; a non-transitory storage that stores a predetermined program for controlling an overall operation and storing various data input/output while a control operation is performed; and a controller receiving information regarding a user'"'"'s eye movement from a camera, detecting a voice command provided from a microphone, and performing a control of an overall operation, wherein the controller determines a position on a screen corresponding to a viewing position of the user'"'"'s eyes, and displays an indicator corresponding to the determined position on the screen, and when an actuating signal is detected, selects an object put on the indicator. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)
