Abstract

An example electronic apparatus includes a display; and a processor, wherein the processor may be configured to obtain a content including at least one object; distinguish the at least one object within the content; display an instruction text in correspondence with a non-text object among the at least one object; and select the non-text object corresponding to the instruction text if a voice command corresponding to the instruction text is inputted.

Claims (46)

1. An electronic device comprising:

a display;

a microphone; and

a processor,

wherein the processor is configured to:

control to obtain content comprising at least one object, wherein the content includes a standardized document in at least one of a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), an Extensible Markup Language (XML), or a GUI toolkit;

identify a non-text object among the at least one object within the content based on the standardized document included within the content;

assign an instruction text to the identified non-text object among the at least one object;

configure a content page for the instruction text to be located in a position corresponding to the non-text object;

control to display the configured content page including the non-text object and the instruction text on the display;

select the non-text object corresponding to the instruction text when a voice command corresponding to the instruction text is input;

recognize a voice from an audio signal from the microphone;

identify whether a text corresponding to the recognized voice is related to the at least one object in the content page; and

select the related object when the text is related to the at least one object.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one object comprises at least one of a content title, an image title, a text icon, an image icon, a text content, an image content, a link content, or an input area which are displayed on the content page.

3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the instruction text is displayed in a tooltip format.

4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to perform an operation matching the selected object.

5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to support voice input when the selected object is an input area.

6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to, based on the text corresponding to the recognized voice being related to a plurality of objects in the content page:

assign an index text to the plurality of related objects; and

configure a content page such that the index text is located corresponding to the plurality of related objects to display the content on the display.

7. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein, the processor is configured to, based on an object related to a text language different from a text language corresponding to the recognized voice:

assign an instruction text to the object related to the different text language; and

configure a content page such that the instruction text is located corresponding to the object related to the different text language to display the content on the display.

8. An operating method of an electronic device, the method comprising:

obtaining content comprising at least one object, wherein the content includes a standardized document in at least one of a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), an Extensible Markup Language (XML), or a GUI toolkit;

identifying a non-text object among the at least one object within the content based on the standardized document included within the content;

assigning an instruction text to the identified non-text object among the at least one object;

configuring a content page for the instruction text to be located in a position corresponding to the non-text object;

displaying the configured content page including the non-text object and the instruction text on a display of the electronic device;

selecting the non-text object corresponding to the instruction text when a voice command corresponding to the instruction text is input;

recognizing a voice from an audio signal from a microphone of the electronic device;

identifying whether a text corresponding to the recognized voice is related to the at least one object in the content page; and

selecting the related object when the text is related to the at least one object.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises, based on the text corresponding to the recognized voice being related to a plurality of objects in the content page, assigning an index text to the plurality of related objects, and configuring and displaying a content page such that the index text is located corresponding to the plurality of related objects; and

the method further comprises, based on an object related to a text language different from a text language corresponding to the recognized voice, assigning an instruction text to the object related to the different text language, and configuring and displaying a content page such that the instruction text is located corresponding to the object related to the different text language.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium that stores instructions for execution, the instructions, when executed, causing the processor to perform:

controlling to obtain content comprising at least one object, wherein the content comprises a standardized document in at least one of a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), an Extensible Markup Language (XML), or a GUI toolkit;

identifying a non-text object among the at least one object within the content based on the standardized document included within the content;

assigning an instruction text to the identified non-text object among the at least one object;

configuring a content page for the instruction text to be located in a position corresponding to the non-text object;

controlling to display the configured content page including the non-text object and the instruction text on a display;

selecting the non-text object corresponding to the instruction text when a voice command corresponding to the instruction text is input;

recognizing a voice from an audio signal from the microphone;

identifying whether a text corresponding to the recognized voice is related to the at least one object in the content page; and

selecting the related object when the text is related to the at least one object.
