Device and control method thereof
First Claim
1. A device, comprising:
- sensing units comprising at least two among a microphone detecting a user'"'"'s voice, a camera detecting the user'"'"'s gesture motion, and a communication unit detecting a communication signal of at least one external device and configured to detect multiple control commands; and
a controller configured to;
receive the multiple control commands through the sensing units, the multiple control commands being detected from different sensing units;
determine whether the received multiple control commands are compatible based on a current state of the device and a predetermined sets of control commands;
simultaneously execute multiple functions corresponding to the multiple control commands when the multiple control commands are compatible; and
selectively execute one function corresponding to a control command selected from the multiple control commands according to a predetermined criterion when the multiple control commands are incompatible,wherein the multiple control commands include a first control command detected through a first sensing unit and a second control command detected through a second sensing unit, the second sensing unit being different from the first sensing unit, andwherein the multiple functions are independent each other.

Abstract
A device and a control method for the device are disclosed. A device and a control method for the device according to the present invention comprises a sensing unit; and a controller, if at least one of a second control command is received through the sensing unit while carrying out a control operation based on at least one of a first control command received through the sensing unit, generating a display signal based on a control command selected according to a predetermined criterion from the received multiple control commands of the first and the second control command. According to the present invention, a control command for generating a display signal can be effectively selected in the case that another control command is received while a particular control command is carried out.
