Abstract
A smart watch and a control method thereof are disclosed. The smart watch includes a first sensor unit configured to detect whether the smart watch is worn; a display unit configured to display visual information; a second sensor unit configured to detect movement of the smart watch; and a processor configured to control the first sensor unit, the display unit, and the second sensor unit. In addition, the processor is further configured to: if a first movement of the smart watch is detected, obtain a direction and a distance of the first movement of the smart watch, and if the direction of the first movement is a first direction and the distance of the first movement is equal to or more than a first threshold distance, perform a first function corresponding to the first direction, if the direction of the first movement is a second direction and the distance of the first movement is equal to or more than the first threshold distance, perform a second function corresponding to the second direction. Furthermore, the first direction and the second direction are set based on a same axis. Lastly, the first direction is the opposite direction to the second direction.
