1. A wearable mobile terminal comprising:
- a display;
a sensing unit configured to measure a blood flow rate at a wrist of a user wearing the wearable mobile terminal; and
a controller configured to;
execute a first function and cause the display to display a screen corresponding to the first function when a state of fingers of the user is changed from a completely unfolded state to a fist state such that a variation of the measured blood flow rate meets or exceeds a first threshold value; and
execute a second function and cause the display to display a screen corresponding to the second function that is different than the first function when the state of fingers of the user is changed from the fist state to the completely unfolded state such that the variation of the measured blood flow rate meets or exceeds a second threshold value,wherein the state of fingers of the user is determined as the completely unfolded state or the fist state based on the variation of the measured blood flow rate.

Abstract
A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, by which a function adaptive to a situation can be provided by detecting a blood flow rate in a wrist having a watch type mobile terminal worn thereon. The present invention includes a display, a band configured to be worn on a wrist of a user, a sensing unit configured to measure a blood flow rate in the wrist having the band worn thereon, and a controller controlling the display to display a running screen of a prescribed function if a variation of the measured blood flow rate is generated.

10. A method for controlling a wearable mobile terminal, the method comprising:
-
measuring a blood flow rate at a wrist of a user wearing the wearable mobile terminal; executing a first function and displaying a screen corresponding to the first function when a state of fingers of the user is changed from a completely unfolded state to a fist state such that a variation of the measured blood flow rate meets or exceeds a first threshold value; and executing a second function and displaying a screen corresponding to the second function that is different than the first function when the state of fingers of the user is changed from the fist state to the completely unfolded state such that the variation of the measured blood flow rate meets or exceeds a second threshold value, wherein the state of fingers of the user is determined as the completely unfolded state or the fist state based on the variation of the measured blood flow rate. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
