Mobile terminal and control method thereof

1. A mobile terminal comprising:

a body formed to wrap around at least one region of a user's wrist;

a projection unit disposed to the side of the body;

a touch screen disposed on a front surface of the body and configured to output first screen information; and

a controller configured to:

control the projection unit to project visual information corresponding to the first screen information currently displayed on the touch screen, on the basis of a pre-set type touch applied to the touch screen,

wherein the projection unit includes a plurality of projectors, and

the visual information corresponding to the first screen information is projected through a projector placed in a position corresponding to a direction in which the touch is applied, among the plurality of projectors.

2. The mobile terminal of claim 1 ,

wherein when an event is received, the controller displays event information related to the received event together with the first screen information on the touch screen, and

when the touch input is applied to the event information displayed on the touchscreen, the controller projects visual information corresponding to the event information through the projection unit.

3. The mobile terminal of claim 2 , wherein the event information is displayed to overlap with the first screen information.

4. The mobile terminal of claim 2 , wherein only when the touch input is applied to a region in which the first screen information is displayed, the controller outputs visual information corresponding to the first screen information through the projection unit.

5. The mobile terminal of claim 4 , wherein when the touch input is applied to a region in which the event information is displayed, the controller projects the visual information through the projection unit and continuously displays the first screen information on the touch screen.

6. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller controls the projection unit such that at least one of a format, a type and a output position in which the visual information corresponding to the first screen information is projected is varied according to a direction in which the touch input is applied.

7. The mobile terminal of claim 6 , wherein when the touch input is applied in a first direction, the visual information corresponding to the first screen information is output through the first projector among the plurality of projectors, and

when the touch input is applied in a second direction different from the first direction, the visual information corresponding to the first screen information is output through a second projector different from the first projector among the plurality of projectors.

8. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein when a pre-set type touch is applied to the visual information corresponding to the first screen information projected through the projection unit, the controller controls the projection unit to finish projecting the visual information corresponding to the first screen information.

9. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the visual information corresponding to the first screen information projected through the projection unit is displayed on a wrist or a back of a hand excluding the region wrapped with the body of the mobile terminal, and

the controller controls the projection unit to vary a display size of the visual information corresponding to the first screen information according to an area of the wrist or the back of a hand.

10. A control method of a mobile terminal including a body and a projection unit disposed on the side of the body, the method comprising:

displaying screen information on a touch screen disposed on a front surface of the body;

receiving a touch input applied to the touch screen, in a state in which the first screen information are displayed on the touch screen; and

controlling the projection unit to project visual information corresponding to the first screen information currently displayed on the touch screen, on the basis of a pre-set type touch applied to the touch screen,

wherein:

the projection unit includes a plurality of projectors, and

the visual information corresponding to the first screen information is projected through a projector placed in a position corresponding to a direction in which the touch is applied, among the plurality of projectors.

11. The control method of claim 10 , when an event is received, event information related to the received event is displayed together with the first screen information on the touchscreen, and when another touch input is applied on the event information, visual information corresponding to the event information is projected through the projection unit.
