1. A method of a mobile device configured to generate an object image from an object disposed to face the mobile device, the method comprising:
- displaying a screen by using a panel of a display unit;
unlocking the mobile device to access a normal mode of the mobile device according to a password input in a security check process of a security mode, by using a control processor;
sensing a motion of the mobile device by using a sensor in a motion detection process;
activating a user identification process of photographing the object to generate the object image and determining that the object image is an authorized user according to a reference, in response to the sensed motion of the mobile device; and
unlocking the mobile device to access the normal mode of the mobile device according to the determination of the user identification process, by using the control processor.

18. A method of a mobile device configured to generate an object image an object disposed to face the mobile device, the method comprising:
-
displaying a screen by using a panel of a display unit; unlocking the mobile device for a user to access a normal mode of the mobile device according to a password input in a security check process of a security mode, by using a control process; sensing a motion of the mobile device, by using a sensor; communicating with an external device located in an area to transmit or receive a signal by using a network interface; activating a user identification process of detecting a condition and determining that the condition represents an authorized user, in response to the sensed motion; and unlocking the mobile device for a user to access the normal mode of the mobile device according to the determination of the detected condition as the authorized user, wherein the condition comprises at least one of photographing the object to generate the object image as a first condition, communication with the external device in the area in which the mobile device is located as a second condition, and a time to change a mode of the mobile device as a third condition, by using the control processor. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)
