Abstract

A mobile terminal including a wireless communication unit configured to wirelessly communicate with at least one other terminal; a memory configured to store recorded voice data; a display unit configured to display a graphic object representing a reproduction progress of the recorded voice data; and a controller configured to receive a selection signal indicating a portion of the graphic object has been selected, select a section of the recorded voice data including a point-in-time at which the graphic object is selected, convert keyword voice data included in the selected section of the recorded voice data to keyword text data, and display the keyword text data on the display unit.

Claims (37)

1. A mobile terminal, comprising:

a wireless communication unit configured to wirelessly communicate with at least one other terminal;

a memory configured to store recorded voice data;

a display unit configured to display a progress bar representing a reproduction progress of the recorded voice data; and

a controller configured to:

select a section of the recorded voice data in response to a user input applied to the progress bar,

determine a number of voice keywords based on the user input applied to the progress bar, wherein the number of voice keywords is varied according to the user input applied to the progress bar,

select the determined number of voice keywords from the selected section of the recorded voice data based on a predetermined criterion,

convert the voice keywords included in the selected section of the recorded voice data to text keywords,

distinctively display the text keywords on the display unit, wherein at least one of a font color, a font size, and a font thickness of each text keyword is determined based on the number of times that each text keyword is included in the selected section of the recorded voice data,

select a text keyword among the text keywords in response to a touch applied to the text keyword, and

display an entire sentence including the selected text keyword and speaker information related to a speaker who said the entire sentence.

2. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to display a display object on the progress bar showing the selected section of the recorded voice data.

3. The mobile terminal of claim 2 , wherein the user input includes a touching of the progress bar, and

wherein the controller is further configured to detect an extent to which the touching is applied to the display object, and determine at least one of a length of the selected section of the recorded voice data and the determined number of voice keywords based on the extent to which the touching is applied.

4. The mobile terminal of claim 3 , wherein the touching of the progress bar includes one of a) touching the progress bar and dragging the touching in a direction away from the progress bar, b) maintaining the touching of the progress bar for a predetermined amount of time, c) touching the progress bar and dragging the touching in a direction along the progress bar, and d) touching the progress bar at first and second points, and

wherein the determined at least one of the length of the selected section of the recorded voice data and the determined number of voice keywords corresponds to a) a length of the dragging away from the progress bar, b) the predetermined amount of time of the touching, c) a length of the dragging along the progress bar, and d) a distance between the first and second points on the progress bar.

5. The mobile terminal of claim 4 , wherein the controller is further configured to change a shape of the display object to indicate the determined at least one of the length of the selected section of the recorded voice data.

6. A method of controlling a mobile terminal, the method comprising:

storing, via a memory, recorded voice data;

displaying, via a display unit, a progress bar representing a reproduction progress of the recorded voice data;

selecting, via the controller, a section of the recorded voice data in response to a user input applied to the progress bar;

determining the number of voice keywords based on the user input applied to the progress bar, wherein the number of voice keywords is varied according to the user input applied to the progress bar;

selecting, via the controller, the determined number of voice keywords from the selected section of the recorded voice data based on a predetermined criterion;

converting, via the controller, the voice keywords included in the selected section of the recorded voice data to text keywords;

distinctively displaying, via the display unit, the text keywords, wherein at least one of a font color, a font size, and a font thickness of each text keyword is determined based on the number of times that each text keyword is included in the selected section of the recorded voice data;

selecting a text keyword among the text keywords in response to a touch applied to the text keyword; and

displaying an entire sentence including the selected text keyword and speaker information related to a speaker who said the entire sentence.

7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising displaying a display object on the progress bar showing the selected section of the recorded voice data.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the selection signal includes a touching of the progress bar, and

wherein the method further comprises detecting an extent to which the touching is applied to the display object, and determining at least one of a length of the selected section of the recorded voice data and the determined number of voice keywords based on the extent to which the touching is applied.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the touching of the progress bar includes one of a) touching the progress bar and dragging the touching in a direction away from the progress bar, b) maintaining the touching of the progress bar for a predetermined amount of time, c) touching the progress bar and dragging the touching in a direction along the progress bar, and d) touching the progress bar at first and second points, and

wherein the determined at least one of the length of the selected section of the recorded voice data and the determined number of voice keywords corresponds to a) a length of the dragging away from the progress bar, b) the predetermined amount of time of the touching, c) a length of the dragging along the progress bar, and d) a distance between the first and second points on the progress bar.

10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

changing a shape of the display object to indicate the determined at least one of the length of the selected section of the recorded voice data.

11. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to display one or more graphic objects showing a point-in-time at which the voice data corresponding to the entire sentence is output.

12. The method of claim 6 , further comprising displaying one or more graphic objects showing a point-in-time at which the voice data corresponding to the entire sentence is output.
