Multi-display system, electronic device, and content output method

Abstract

Provided are an electronic device and a content output method of the same. Synchronized content is output to a large format display (LFD) and a small format display (SFD). Content synchronized in correspondence with a user's proximity and/or touch is output to the LFD and the SFD.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A multi-display system comprising:
 an interactive display having a user input device and configured to display first content according to an input of a user through the user input device;   an auxiliary display configured to display second content corresponding to the first content according to the input of the user through the user input device; and   an electronic device configured to store source content, generate first content and second content by dividing and scaling the source content according to the input of the user through the user input device, transmit the first content and the second content to the interactive display and the auxiliary display, respectively, and control the interactive display and the auxiliary display to display the first content and the second content, respectively.   
     
     
         2 . The multi-display system according to  claim 1 , wherein the interactive display and the auxiliary display have different screen sizes and different resolutions. 
     
     
         3 . The multi-display system according to  claim 1 , wherein the source content is generated to be displayed on the interactive display without separate scaling. 
     
     
         4 . The multi-display system according to  claim 1 , wherein the electronic device includes:
 a scaler configured to scale the source content in accordance with a size and resolution of the auxiliary display.   
     
     
         5 . The multi-display system according to  claim 1 , wherein the electronic device causes the interactive display to output a user menu. 
     
     
         6 . The multi-display system according to  claim 1 , wherein the electronic device causes a horizontal or vertical line of an image object to be equally aligned between the interactive display and the auxiliary display when the image object moves between the interactive display and the auxiliary display. 
     
     
         7 . The multi-display system according to  claim 1 , wherein the first content and the second content include product category content in which products of various categories are displayed to be scrollable by a touch gesture of the user. 
     
     
         8 . The multi-display system according to  claim 7 , wherein the products of various categories displayed in the product category content are disposed on the same horizontal plane. 
     
     
         9 . The multi-display system according to  claim 8 , wherein the electronic device causes a screen to be flicked in a direction opposite to a scroll direction when the user scrolls on a last part of the product category content. 
     
     
         10 . The multi-display system according to  claim 1 , wherein the first content and the second content include product details content in which details of each product are shown. 
     
     
         11 . The multi-display system according to  claim 10 , wherein the product details content includes zoom content for enlarging a partial region of the product to display the enlarged partial region. 
     
     
         12 . The multi-display system according to  claim 11 , wherein the electronic device causes a zoom menu through which movement to the interactive display is enabled to be output when the user selects the zoom content. 
     
     
         13 . The multi-display system according to  claim 10 , wherein the product details content includes background-switched content for changing and showing a background in which the product is disposed. 
     
     
         14 . The multi-display system according to  claim 13 ,
 wherein the first content and the second content include a background layer and a product layer overlaid on the background layer, and   wherein the background-switched content is shown by switching the background layer.   
     
     
         15 . The multi-display system according to  claim 14 , wherein the background layer includes a shadow of the product generated according to a light source effect.
