Mobile terminal and controlling method thereof
First Claim
1. A mobile terminal of a watch type wearable on a user'"'"'s wrist, comprising:
- a display unit configured to display information;
a wireless communication unit configured to communicate with an external device as a target of a remote control;
a sensing unit configured to sense a motion of the mobile terminal and a variation according to a muscle movement of a part having the mobile terminal worn thereon; and
a controller configured to;
create a control command for remotely controlling either the mobile terminal or the external device based on a sensing signal of the sensing unit,create the control command depending on one of a first combination and a second combination,wherein the first combination is comprised of the motion of the mobile terminal and a sound generated from the motion of the mobile terminal, andwherein the second combination is comprised of a motion of a finger of an arm having the mobile terminal worn thereon and a sound generated from the motion of the finger, anddetermine a control mode based on a location of an arm having the mobile terminal worn thereon, wherein the control mode includes a self-control mode controlling the mobile terminal and a remote control mode controlling the external device.

15. A method of controlling a mobile terminal of a watch type wearable on a user'"'"'s wrist, comprising steps of:
-
sensing, via a sensing unit, a motion of the mobile terminal and a variation according to a muscle movement of a part having the mobile terminal worn thereon; remotely controlling, via a controller, either the mobile terminal or an external device based on a control command, wherein the control command is created depending on one of a first combination and a second combination, wherein the first combination is comprised of the motion of the mobile terminal and a sound generated from the motion of the mobile terminal, and wherein the second combination is comprised of a motion of a finger of an arm having the mobile terminal worn thereon and a sound generated from the motion of the finger; and determining, via the controller, a control mode based on a location of an arm having the mobile terminal worn thereon, wherein the control mode includes a self-control mode controlling the mobile terminal and a remote control mode controlling the external device.
