First Claim
Patent Images
1. A display mode switching control method of a portable terminal, comprising:
- extracting by a control unit a rotation pattern including at least one of pitch, roll, and yaw angles of the portable terminal;
determining by the control unit whether or not the rotation pattern is a valid rotation pattern based on a threshold value of at least two angles; and
switching, when the rotation pattern is the valid rotation pattern, from a current display mode to another display mode.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for controlling display mode switching based on the rotation pattern of a portable terminal prevents unwanted orientation changes in the display for certain movements. The display mode switching control method of the present invention includes extracting a rotation pattern including pitch, roll, and yaw angles of the terminal; determining whether the rotation pattern is a valid rotation pattern based on the angles; and switching, when the rotation pattern is the valid rotation pattern, from a current display mode to other display mode.

10. A portable terminal comprising:
-
a sensing unit which extracts a rotation pattern including one or more of a pitch, a roll, and a yaw angles; a display unit which displays a screen; and a control unit which determines whether the rotation pattern is a valid rotation pattern based on at least one or more of the pitch, roll, and yaw angles and controls, when the rotation pattern is the valid rotation pattern, the display unit to switch from a current display mode to other display mode. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
