Abstract

A mobile terminal and a method for controlling the mobile terminal are disclosed. A mobile terminal according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises at least one sensor; a first processor for controlling operation of the at least one sensor; a second processor for controlling an application; and a vibration unit detecting a force applied by the user, where the vibration unit is woken up when a force applied by the user exceeds a predetermined magnitude while the at least one sensor, the first processor, the second processor, and the vibration unit are all in a sleep state; and if the first processor is woken up by the vibration unit, the first processor wakes up the second processor based on sensing data collected by the at least one sensor.
