- a user input unit configured to receive user-inputs;
a wireless communication unit configured to wirelessly communicate with at least one other terminal;
at least one camera configured to capture images;
a touchscreen configured to display a camera preview image captured by the camera;
a position-location processor configured to obtain information on a current position of the mobile terminal;
an object information processor configured to obtain textual object information existing within the camera preview image; and
a controller configured to;
display an object information presence indicator on the touchscreen indicating that textual object information exists within the camera preview image before displaying the textual object information,display an object information activation indicator indicating that the controller is activated to display the textual object information on the touchscreen and an object display indicator corresponding to the object, when the object information presence indicator is selected,display the textual object information on the touchscreen together with the camera preview image identifying objects included within the preview image based on the obtained current position of the mobile terminal, when the object display indicator is selected, anddeactivate the object information processor if a prescribed webpage is accessed via the wireless communication unit based on a selection of the textual object information,wherein if at least two objects exist within the camera preview image, the controller is further configured to display textual object information of the obiect closest to the current position of the mobile terminal, andwherein if a prescribed user command is input or a prescribed period of time passes, the controller is further configured to display textual object information of the object second closest to the current position of the mobile terminal.

14. A method of controlling a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
-
allowing, via a wireless communication unit, wireless communication with at least one other terminal; capturing, via at least one camera provided on the mobile terminal, a camera preview image; displaying, on a touchscreen of the mobile terminal, the captured camera preview image; obtaining, via a position-location processor, information on a current position of the mobile terminal; obtaining, via an object information processor, textual object information existing within the camera preview image; displaying, via a controller, an object information presence indicator on the touchscreen indicating that textual object information exists within the camera preview image before displaying the textual object information when it is detected that at least one object existing within the camera preview image has at least one object information; displaying, via the controller, an object information activation indicator indicating that the controller is activated to display the textual object information on the touchscreen and an object display indicator corresponding to the object when the object information presence indicator is selected; displaying, via the controller, the textual object information together with the camera preview image on the touchscreen identifying objects included within the preview image based on the obtained current position of the mobile terminal, when the object display indicator is selected; and deactivating, via the controller, the object information processor if a prescribed webpage is accessed via the wireless communication unit based on a selection of the textual object information, wherein if at least two objects exist within the camera preview image, the method further comprises displaying, via the controller, textual object information of the object closest to the current position of the mobile terminal, and wherein if a prescribed user command is input or a prescribed period of time passes, the method further comprises displaying, via the controller, textual object information of the object second closest to the current position of the mobile terminal. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
