1. A vehicle comprising:
- a terminal communication unit configured to receive signals from portable terminals according to types of the portable terminals and generate normalized data;
a controller configured to generate a control signal for controlling a corresponding component in the vehicle based on the normalized data; and
a display configured to display at least one of navigation information, media information, and telephone information to a user based on the control signal,wherein the terminal communication unit comprises;
a terminal determination unit configured to determine the types of the portable terminals based on vendor identifications included in terminal information of the portable terminals; and
a terminal signal analysis unit configured to analyze the signals received from the portable terminals according to the types of the portable terminals and generate the normalized data based on results of the analysis, andwherein the terminal determination unit is configured to receive the terminal information from the portable terminals, search for previously stored terminal vendor identifications matching the vendor identifications included in the terminal information of the portable terminals, and determine the types of the portable terminals corresponding to the previously stored terminal vendor identifications matching the vendor identifications.

16. A method of controlling a vehicle having a controller, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by the controller, signals including terminal information from portable terminals; searching, by the controller, for previously stored terminal vendor identifications matching vendor identifications included in the terminal information of the portable terminals; determining, by the controller, types of the portable terminals based on the vendor identification; analyzing, by the controller, the signals received from the portable terminals according to the types of the portable terminals; generating, by the controller, normalized data based on results of the analysis; and controlling, by the controller, the vehicle based on the normalized data, which includes controlling a display to display at least one of navigation information, media information, and telephone information to a user, wherein the determining types of the portable terminals comprises determining types of the portable terminals corresponding to the previously stored terminal vendor identifications matching the vendor identifications.
