Abstract

An image display apparatus mounted in a car includes a communication unit configured to transmit and receive data to and from a mobile terminal, and a controller configured to control the communication unit to receive information for requesting status information of the car, in which the image display apparatus is mounted, from the mobile terminal, to generate car status information according to the received information for requesting the status information of the car, to control the communication unit to transmit the generated car status information to the mobile terminal. The car status information includes at least one of driving information, speed information and fuel information of the car. According to a mobile terminal, an image display apparatus mounted in a car and a data processing method using the same, it is possible to efficiently transmit car status information between the mobile terminal and the image display apparatus.

Claims (30)

1. An image display apparatus mounted in a car, comprising:

a communication unit configured to transmit and receive data to and from a mobile terminal by using a UPnP(Universal Plug and Play) service; and

a controller configured to:

control the communication unit to receive information for requesting a list of transmittable car status information, transmit a list of transmittable car status information to the mobile terminal, and receive information for requesting status information of the car among the list of transmittable car status information, in which the image display apparatus is mounted, from the mobile terminal,

generate car status information according to the received information for requesting the status information of the car, and

control the communication unit to transmit the generated car status information to the mobile terminal,

wherein the car status information includes at least one of driving information, speed information and fuel information of the car.

2. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the controller controls the communication unit to generate and transmit the car status information to the mobile terminal, if the status of the car is changed.

3. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the controller controls the communication unit to generate and transmit only changed car status information to the mobile terminal if the status of the car is changed.

4. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the car status information further includes transmission information, brake lock/unlock information and headlight on/off information of the car.

5. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the car status information further includes information on whether a seat belt is fastened, information on whether a door is locked and information on whether a window is opened.

6. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the controller controls the communication unit to receive first type information including a list of the car status information requested by the mobile terminal and generates the car status information according to the type information.

7. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the controller controls the communication unit to generate and transmit, to the mobile terminal, second type information including a list of car status information capable of being, generated.

8. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the car status information includes identification of the car status information.

9. A mobile terminal comprising:

a communication unit configured to transmit and receive data to and from an image display apparatus by using a UPnP(Universal Plug and Play) service; and

a controller configured to:

request a list of transmittable car status information,

receive a list of transmittable car status information from the car,

generate information for requesting status information of a car mounted with the image display apparatus among the list of transmittable car status information,

control the communication unit to transmit the generated information for requesting the status information of the car, and

control the communication unit to receive car status information generated according to the information for requesting the status information of the car,

wherein the car status information includes at least one of driving information, speed information and fuel information of the car.

10. The mobile terminal according to claim 9 , wherein the controller controls the communication unit to receive the car status information from the image display apparatus, if the status of the car is changed.

11. The mobile terminal according to claim 9 , wherein the controller controls the communication unit to receive only changed car status information from the image display apparatus if the status of the car is changed.

12. The mobile terminal according to claim 9 , wherein the car status information further includes transmission information, brake lock/unlock information and headlight on/off information of the car.

13. The mobile terminal according to claim 9 , wherein the car status information further includes information on whether a seat belt is fastened, information on whether a door is locked and information on whether a window is opened.

14. The mobile terminal according to claim 9 , wherein the controller generates first type information including a list of the car status information requested by the mobile terminal and controls the communication unit to transmit the first type information to the image display apparatus.

15. The mobile terminal according to claim 9 , wherein the controller controls the communication unit to receive second type information including a list of car status information capable of being generated from the image display apparatus.

16. The mobile terminal according to claim 9 , wherein the car status information includes identification of the car status information.
