MOBILE TERMINAL AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a sensor configured to sense information associated with a user;
a memory to store prescribed alarm settings;
an output device to provide an alarm based on the stored alarm settings; and
a controller configured to control the alarm based on the sensed information, wherein the controllercontrols the output device to output the alarm based on the alarm settings,controls the sensor to sense the information associated with the user after the alarm is provided,determines whether the sensed information corresponds to a sleep state of the user, andautomatically activates a snooze function when the sensed information corresponds to the sleep state.

Abstract
A terminal and a method of controlling the same are disclosed, by which a snooze function for an alarm can be activated depending on whether a user sleeps after outputting the alarm. The terminal may include a measuring unit configured to measure a bio-information of a user, a memory having an alarm set therein, an alarm unit configured to output the alarm, and a controller configured to measure the bio-information of the user through the measuring unit after the outputted alarm. The controller, when determining that the user is currently asleep based on the measured bio-information, may control a snooze function for the alarm to be automatically activated.

20. A method of controlling a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
-
activating an alarm function based on an alarm setting stored in a memory; determining whether a prescribed condition is satisfied according to the alarm setting; outputting an alarm through an output device in response to the prescribed condition; sensing information associated with a user after the alarm is output, the sensed information corresponding to vital signs of the user; determining whether the sensed information corresponds to a prescribed sleep state based on the sensed information; and automatically activating a snooze function when the sensed information corresponds to the prescribed sleep state.
