Abstract

An apparatus and a method for operating a multimedia apparatus and performing wireless charging of a portable apparatus are provided. The apparatus includes: a communicator configured to perform a communication with a multimedia apparatus; a touch pad configured to generate an input signal according to an input generated from an external source; and a controller configured to verify an input position generated in the touch pad so that a point is displayed on a position of the multimedia apparatus that is identical to the position where the input is generated, and provide the verified input position to the multimedia apparatus.

Claims (29)

1. An operating apparatus for operating a multimedia apparatus and performing wireless charging of a portable apparatus, the operating apparatus comprising:

a communicator configured to communicate with the multimedia apparatus;

a touch pad formed in an upper part of the operating apparatus to generate an input signal according to an input generated from an external source; and

a controller configured to verify an input position generated in the touch pad so that a point is displayed on a position of the multimedia apparatus that is identical to the position where the input is generated, and provide the verified input position to the multimedia apparatus, wherein

the controller is further configured to detect an input received on a screen of the portable apparatus when the portable apparatus is in contact with the upper part of the operating apparatus, verify a position on the screen of the portable apparatus where the input is received, and provide the verified position on the screen of the portable apparatus to the multimedia apparatus, and

the controller is further configured to synchronize a screen pixel of the multimedia apparatus with a pixel of the touch pad when the portable apparatus is not in contact with the touch pad.

2. The operating apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:

a sensor unit that detects the portable apparatus is in contact with the touch pad.

3. The operating apparatus of claim 2 , further comprising:

a charging unit that wirelessly charges the portable apparatus in contact with the touch pad.

4. The operating apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the communicator communicates with the portable apparatus in contact with the touch pad.

5. The operating apparatus of claim 4 , further comprising:

a trigger that generates a mounting verification signal when a mounting of the portable apparatus is verified.

6. The operating apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the controller provides a screen operating activation request signal to the portable apparatus in accordance with the mounting verification signal.

7. The operating apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the controller provides a pixel synchronizing request signal to the portable apparatus to synchronize a screen pixel of the portable apparatus with the screen pixel of the multimedia apparatus.

8. The operating apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the controller verifies the position where the input is generated on the screen of the portable apparatus, and provides the position to the multimedia apparatus.

9. The operating apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the controller verifies the position where the input is generated on the screen of the portable apparatus so that a point is displayed on the position of the multimedia apparatus that is identical to the position where the input has generated on the screen of the portable apparatus, and provides the verified position to the multimedia apparatus.

10. A method for operating a multimedia apparatus and performing wireless charging of a portable apparatus using an operating apparatus, the method comprising:

detecting, by a controller, an input received on a screen of the portable apparatus when the portable apparatus is in contact with an upper part of the operating apparatus;

verifying a position on the screen of the portable apparatus where the input is generated;

providing the verified position on the screen of the portable apparatus to the multimedia apparatus so that a point is displayed on the multimedia apparatus that is identical to the position on the screen of the portable apparatus where the input is generated; and

synchronizing a screen pixel of the multimedia apparatus with a pixel of a touch pad formed in the upper part of the operating apparatus when the portable apparatus is not in contact with the touch pad.

11. The method of claim 10 , before the detecting of the input, further comprising:

verifying whether the portable apparatus is in contact with the touch pad.

12. The method of claim 11 , after verifying the contacting of the portable apparatus, further comprising:

charging the portable apparatus wirelessly when the portable apparatus is in contact with the touch pad.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the detecting of the input comprises detecting an input generated in the touch pad or the portable apparatus.

14. The method of claim 13 , after verifying whether the portable apparatus is contacted, further comprising:

transmitting a pixel synchronizing request signal to synchronize a screen pixel of the portable apparatus with the screen pixel of the multimedia apparatus to the portable apparatus when the portable apparatus is contacted.
