Abstract

A service providing method of a user terminal device connected to a display apparatus mounted on a moving means includes displaying a stored contact list and guiding one or more routes which displays a route guide screen to selected address information by utilizing a display apparatus if the address information is selected from personal information recorded on the displayed contact list. Accordingly, various services can be provided based on the personal information.

Claims

1. A service providing method of a user terminal device connected to a display apparatus mounted on a moving means, the service providing method comprising:

displaying a contact list stored in the user terminal device; and

guiding one or more routes by displaying a route guide screen to a selected address information using the display apparatus when the address information is selected from among personal information of the displayed contact list.

2. The service providing method of claim 1, wherein the guiding routes comprises:

implementing a GPS program and creating the route guide screen in the user terminal device when the address information is selected; and

transmitting the route guide screen to the display apparatus such that the route guide screen is displayed on the display apparatus.

3. The service providing method of claim 1, wherein:

the guiding of the routes comprises transmitting the address information to the display apparatus when the address information is selected; and

the route guide screen is created by a GPS program implemented in the display apparatus.

4. The service providing method of claim 1, further comprising:

monitoring to determine whether an event matching schedule information stored in the user terminal device occurs; and

creating the route guide screen to a place matching the event when the event occurs, and transmitting the route guide screen to the display apparatus such that the route guide screen is displayed on the display apparatus.

5. The service providing method of claim 4, further comprising:

searching for one or more external devices storing schedule information overlapped with the schedule information matching the event when the event occurs;

displaying a list of one or more users regarding the searched external devices; and

re-creating another route guide screen by updating positions of selected users when one or more users are selected from the list, and transmitting the re-created route guide screen to the display apparatus such that the route guide screen is displayed on the display apparatus.

6. The service providing method of claim 1, further comprising:

sharing the screen displayed on the user terminal device with the display apparatus when the user terminal device is connected to the display apparatus.

7. A user terminal device, comprising:

an interface connectable to a display apparatus mounted on a moving means;

a storage to store a contact list;

a display to display the contact list stored in the storage; and

a controller configured to utilize the display to display a route guide screen corresponding to selected address information when the address information is selected from among personal information of the displayed contact list.

8. The user terminal device of claim 7, wherein, when the address information is selected, the controller implements a GPS program, creates the route guide screen, and transmits the route guide screen via the interface to the display apparatus.

9. The user terminal device of claim 7, wherein, when the address information is selected, the controller transmits the address information via the interface to the display apparatus, and the route guide screen is created and displayed by a GPS program which is implemented on the display apparatus.

10. The user terminal device of claim 7, wherein the controller monitors to determine whether an event matching schedule information stored in the user terminal device occurs, creates a route guide screen to a place matching the event if the event occurs, and displays the route guide screen using the display apparatus.

11. The user terminal device of claim 10, wherein the controller searches for one or more external devices storing schedule information overlapped with the schedule information matching the event when the event occurs, displays a list of one or more users regarding the searched external devices, re-creates the route guide screen by updating positions of selected users when one or more users are selected on the list, and displays the re-created route guide screen using the display apparatus.

12. The user terminal device of claim 7, wherein, when the display apparatus is connected to the user terminal device via the interface, the controller shares the screen displayed on the display with the display apparatus.

13. A method of utilizing personal information of a user terminal device, the method comprising:

creating a brief screen by utilizing the personal information of the user terminal device and displaying the brief screen through a display apparatus when the user terminal apparatus is connected to the display apparatus mounted on a moving means;

creating a menu screen and displaying the menu screen through the display apparatus when a user command to discard the brief screen is inputted;

creating a screen including the personal information corresponding to a selected menu and displaying the created screen through the display apparatus when the selected menu is selected from the menu screen; and
