Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of displaying a pointer on an external device sharing an output video with a terminal, and an apparatus thereof. A method of controlling display of a pointer by a terminal so that the pointer is displayed on an external device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes transmitting an output video of the terminal to the external device, if a predetermined request exists; detecting a sensing value according to a input performed on a display area; generating a pointer displaying signal used for displaying a pointer at a position corresponding to a position where the detected sensing value is detected on the external device based on the detected sensing value; and transmitting the generated pointer displaying signal to the external device. According to the present invention, since a pointer is displayed on an external device sharing an output video with a terminal, the user may execute a desired function by looking at the external device, without looking at the terminal.
