Various embodiments of the present invention relate to a remote control case and an electronic device including the same, the remote control case comprising: a cover unit for covering at least a part of a front surface of the electronic device; a first grip unit integrally formed with a first cross sectional surface of the cover unit, and extended in a first direction of the cover unit so as to have a predetermined area; and a second grip unit integrally formed with a second cross sectional surface of the cover unit, and extended in a second direction of the cover unit so as to have a predetermined area, wherein the cover unit comprises a first control unit having a predetermined shape and a first boundary line, and a second control unit having a predetermined shape and a second boundary line, so as to enable the remote control case to be normally mounted on the back surface of the electronic device and carried, and to be mounted on the front surface of the electronic device so as to be used for controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle, an unmanned ground vehicle, an unmanned ship, and the like, when the unmanned aerial vehicle, the unmanned ground vehicle, the unmanned ship, and the like are controlled, such that convenience of portability is provided to a user and boundary characteristics of a physical area (for example, a height difference, a central protruded part, a boundary line, a guide protruded part, an inclined surface, and the like) for controlling the unmanned aerial vehicle, the unmanned ground vehicle, the unmanned ship, and the like, are provided to the first and second control units, thereby enabling the user to intuitively control, without continuously staring at a screen, the unmanned aerial vehicle, the unmanned ground vehicle, the unmanned ship, and the like. Other various embodiments are possible other than the various embodiments provided in the present invention.

A multipurpose accessory and storage system for an electronic device includes a housing member attaching to the electronic device and a charging station structured on the housing member to charge, arrest and dispense an accessory item. The accessory item includes a protective membrane housing a logic board, a power component, an image sensor, a transmitter configured to transfer a signal or data to the electronic device or the housing member and a software program stored in the logic board. The transmitter establishes a pairing or electronic connection between the electronic device or the housing member and the accessory item. The pairing or electronic connection enables content captured by the image sensor to be relayed to the electronic device to permit a user to view the content on the display of the electronic device and/or to control components and features of the accessory item via the electronic device.

An electronic device including an antenna implements a method for recognizing whether a case is attached to the electronic device by using the antenna. The electronic device is configured to attach to an electronic device cover which may include: a cover part configured to surround at least a portion of a housing of the electronic device or form at least a portion of a rear plate of the electronic device; and at least one conductive member configured to, when the electronic device is attached to the cover part, at least partially overlap at least two antennas arranged inside the electronic device and spaced apart from each other. A coupling between at least one of the at least two antennas and the at least one conductive member may be used to recognize whether the electronic device is attached to the cover part.

A method includes, at a computer system with a display and a housing, while a call is ongoing between the computer system and a remote device, detecting a coupling of a case to the computer system, and in response to detecting the coupling of the case to the computer system, in accordance with a determination that the computer system is operating in a first audio mode, continuing the call, and, in accordance with a determination that the computer system is operating in a second audio mode different than the first audio mode, terminating the call.

We disclose a concierge device that can be configured to register, control and support a consumer device. It can alternatively or redundantly connect to a home management bridge and/or cloud-based management servers. It can accept menus that allow a single concierge device to provide a wide range of functions for various consumer devices. The concierge device allows the user in a single action to initiate a support session, automatically identifying the consumer device. The concierge device can be configured for voice or video support calls. The concierge device in conjunction with a home management bridge or gateway can manage on boarding of components of an automated home, such as switches and lamps. Implementations of the concierge device that include a display can show supplemental information, such as advertising, optionally in coordination with media being played on a consumer device coupled in communication with the concierge device.
