Mode switching method and apparatus of terminal
First Claim
1. A mode switching method of a terminal including a camera for acquiring motion information of a user and a plurality of operation modes for power management, the method comprising:
- transitioning, when a motion of a first pattern is detected by the camera, the terminal from an active mode to a standby mode;
transitioning, when the terminal is in the standby mode and a motion of a second pattern is detected by the camera, the terminal from the standby mode to an inactive mode; and
transitioning, when a first mode switching input is detected in the inactive mode, from the inactive mode to the active mode,wherein the camera acquires the motion information of the user in at least one of the active mode and the standby mode.
