Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This application is based on and claims priority from Korean Patent Application No. 10-2016-0075558, filed on Jun. 17, 2016, with the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference. 
     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present disclosure relates to a mobile terminal for providing a video media, a system including the same, and a method for controlling the same. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a mobile terminal for providing a video media mounted with a video media player which is driven first when an inactive state of the mobile terminal is switched to an active state, a system including the same, and a method for controlling the same. 
     BACKGROUND 
     A terminal may be classified into a mobile terminal (or a portable terminal) and a stationary terminal depending on whether to be carried. 
     Among these, as a function of the mobile terminal is diversified, for example, the mobile terminal is implemented as a multimedia player having complex functions such as a function of taking a picture or a video, a function of reproducing a music or a video file, or a function of receiving a game or broadcasting. 
     According to a recent report, 90% or more users operate a mobile terminal as one of behavior patterns which is performed as soon as they get up in the morning. 
     That is, the users experience, share, and learn various worlds by consuming various contents through a mobile terminal so that it can be said that the users live in different worlds from the reality. The users place a high value on a reality which is valued more than addiction. 
     The users set a photo of the most precious person as a background screen of the mobile terminal or keep the photo to achieve an emotional stability. Further, the users seek their own spatial values with various stories with family, a lover, friends, celebrities, daily life, travels, and the like which are melted in the photo. This is because the users see the photo anytime and remember and recall the past any time. 
     In this tendency, recently, new techniques which stimulate emotions of the users whenever the users operate the mobile terminal to increase the satisfaction of the users rapidly appear. 
     For example, even though a technique which reproduces a video set by a user in an initial screen of the mobile terminal to output the video on the screen appears, most of the video screen which is reproduced in accordance with this method is blocked by a program icon so that the user may not pay attention to the video. Further, since the video player is always driven on the background of the initial screen, some of system resources need to be assigned to the video player all the time, which may affect driving of various programs which operate on the initial screen. 
     SUMMARY 
     The present disclosure has been made in an effort to provide a mobile terminal which provides a video media by a new method which reproduces a previously stored video media when an inactive state of the mobile terminal is switched to an active state to output the video media on the entire screen without manipulating to reproduce the video which the user wants to play, a system including the same, and a method for controlling the same, thereby increasing satisfaction of a user for consumption of contents. 
     An exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure provides a control method of a mobile terminal.

       FIG. 1  is a diagram illustrating a configuration of a mobile terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     A mobile terminal  100  may include a wireless communication unit  110 , an AV (audio/video) input unit  120 , a user input unit  130 , a sensing unit  140 , an output unit  150 , a storing unit  160 , a control unit  170 , and a power supply unit  180 . Since the constituent elements illustrated in  FIG. 1  are not necessary, a mobile terminal may be implemented to have more constituent elements or less constituent elements. 
     Hereinafter, the constituent elements will be described in sequence. 
     The communication unit  110  connects the mobile terminal  100  with various networks to communicate with each other so that the mobile terminal  100  may transmit and receive data to and from various types of remote terminals or servers through at least one network. Therefore, the mobile terminal  100  according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure may transmit and receive various data to and from a video media providing server  200  or a time capsule server  300 , as illustrated in  FIG. 3 . 
     The communication unit  110  may be inwardly or externally provided in the mobile terminal  100 . The communication unit  110  may be a wireless internet module or a mobile communication module such as a wireless LAN (WLAN), a wireless fidelity (WiFi) direct, a digital living network alliance (DLNA), a wireless broadband (Wibro), a world interoperability for microwave access (Wimax), or a high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA). Further, the communication unit  110  may be a short range communication module such as a Bluetooth, radio frequency identification (RFID), infrared data association (IrDA), ultra-wideband (UWB), ZigBee, or near field communication (NFC). 
     The mobile communication module may transmit or receive a wireless signal to or from at least one of a base station, an external terminal, a client, and a server in a mobile communication network which is built in accordance with technical standards for mobile communication or a communication scheme. Here, the wireless signal may include an audio call signal, a video call signal, or various types of data (or information) in accordance with transmission/reception of a text/multimedia message. 
     The wireless internet module indicates a module for wireless internet connection and may be configured to transmit or receive a wireless signal in a communication network in accordance with wireless internet techniques. From a viewpoint in that the wireless internet connection is performed through a mobile communication network, the wireless internet module which performs the wireless internet connection through the mobile communication network may be understood as a kind of mobile communication module. 
     The A/V input unit  120  is provided to input an audio signal or a video signal and the A/V input unit  120  may include a camera  121  and a microphone  122 . 
     The camera  121  processes an image frame which is obtained through an image sensor in a video call mode, a photographing mode, or the like, to display a still image, a video, or the like, on a display unit  151  or store the still image, the video, or the like, in the storing unit  160 . 
     The microphone  122  receives an external sound signal through a microphone in a call mode, a recording mode, a voice recognizing mode, a photographing mode, or the like, to convert the external sound signal into electrical voice data. In this case, the mobile terminal  100  may include hardware or software in which various noise removal algorithms are implemented to remove a noise which may be generated during a process of receiving the external sound signal through the microphone  122 . 
     The user input unit  130  receives various commands applied from a user and generates input data corresponding to the commands. The user input unit  130  may be configured by a keypad, a dome switch, a touch pad (static pressure/static electricity), a jog wheel, a jog switch, or the like. 
     The sensing unit  140  detects a current status of the mobile terminal  100  such as an open/closed status of the mobile terminal  100 , a position of the mobile terminal  100 , contact of the user, an orientation of the mobile terminal, and acceleration/deceleration of the mobile terminal and generates a sensing signal in accordance with the status. For example, when the mobile terminal  100  is a slide phone type, the sensing unit  140  may detect whether a slide phone is open or closed or whether the power is supplied through the power supply unit  180 . 
     The output unit  150  is provided to generate an output related with a sense of sight, a sense of hearing, or a sense of touch and includes a display unit  151  and a sound output module  152 . 
     The display unit  151  may output information processed in the mobile terminal  100  on a screen. For example, when the mobile terminal  100  is in a photographing mode, the display unit  151  displays a photographed and/or received image, a related UI, or the like. When a video media is reproduced, the display unit  151  may display a reproduced image and/or a related UI. 
     The display unit  151  may include at least one of a liquid crystal display (LCD), a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT LCD), an organic light emitting diode (OLED), a flexible display, and a 3D display, and an e-ink display. 
     Two or more display units  151  may be provided depending on an implementation type of the mobile terminal  100 . For example, a plurality of display units may be disposed on one surface to be spaced apart from each other or to be integrated or may be disposed on different surfaces, respectively. 
     In the meantime, when the display unit  151  and a sensor (hereinafter, referred to as a “touch sensor”) which detects a touch operation form a layered structure (hereinafter, referred to as a “touch screen”), the display unit  151  may also be used not only as an output device but also as an input device. The touch sensor may have a type such as a touch film, a touch sheet, and a touch pad. 
     The touch sensor is configured to convert a change of a pressure which is applied to a specific part of the display unit  151  or a capacity which is generated in a specific part of the display unit  151  into an electrical input signal. The touch sensor may be configured to detect not only a position and an area of a touch subject which is touched on the touch sensor but also a pressure when the touch subject is touched. Here, the touch subject is an object which applies the touch onto the touch sensor. For example, the touch subject may be a finger, a touch pen, a stylus pen, or a pointer. 
     When there is a touch input onto the touch sensor, a corresponding signal is transmitted to a touch controller. The touch controller processes the signal and then transmits the corresponding data to the control unit  170 . By doing this, the control unit  170  recognizes which area of the display unit  151  is touched. 
     The sound output module  153  may output audio data which is received from the wireless communication unit  110  in a call signal receiving mode, a call mode, a recording mode, a voice recognizing mode, or a broadcasting receiving mode or stored in the storing unit  160 . The sound output module  153  may output a sound signal related with various functions (for example, an alarm signal for receiving a call signal, receiving a message, or the like) which are performed in the mobile terminal  100 . The sound output module  153  may include a receiver, a speaker, and a buzzer. 
     The storing unit  160  may store at least one program for an operation of the control unit  170  or store data (for example, a video media, a sound media, or the like) which is input or output in accordance with the program. 
     The storing unit  160  may include at least one type of storing medium of a flash memory type, a hard disk type, a multimedia card micro type, a card type memory (for example, an SD or XD memory), a random access memory (RAM), a static random access memory (SRAM), a read-only memory (ROM), an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), a programmable read-only memory (PROM), a magnetic memory, a magnetic disk, and an optical disk. The mobile terminal  100  may operate in association with a web storage which performs a storage function of the storing unit  160  on the Internet. 
     The control unit  170  is a unit which controls an overall operation of the mobile terminal  100  and performs various operations or processes various information. 
     In association with this, the control unit  170  according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure may control or drive various programs (for example, a video media player, a camera photographing program, or the like) stored in the storing unit  160  and use various data stored in the storing unit  160 . 
     Specific description thereof will be made when a control method of a mobile terminal is described. 
     In the meantime, the power supply unit  180  is applied with an external power or an internal power in accordance with the control of the control unit  170  to supply power required for operations of the components of the mobile terminal  100 . 
     Hereinafter, a specific exemplary embodiment of a mobile terminal for providing a video media according to the present disclosure and a control method thereof will be described. 
     Control Method of Mobile Terminal 
       FIG. 2  is a flowchart of steps of a method for controlling a mobile terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 2 , a control method of a mobile terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes a first step S 100  of storing, by the storing unit  160 , at least one video medium, a second step S 200  of reproducing, by a control unit  170 , an arbitrary video medium among at least one previously selected video media to output the video media on an entire screen, before the mobile terminal  100  enters an initial screen by switching an inactive state of the mobile terminal into an active state and providing an interface for receiving a user command for entering the initial screen, and a third step S 300  of entering, by the control unit  170 , an initial screen in accordance with the user command. 
     However, since the steps illustrated in  FIG. 2  are not necessary, a control method of a mobile terminal may be implemented to have more steps or less steps. 
     Hereinafter, the steps will be described in sequence. 
     In the first step S 100 , the storing unit  160  stores a video medium. The video media may be stored by being downloaded from a video media providing server  200  (see  FIG. 3 ) or stored by being photographed through the A/V input unit  120 . 
     Specifically, according to an exemplary embodiment, the video media including image information and voice information obtained through the camera  121  and the microphone  122  may be stored in the storing unit  160 . According to another exemplary embodiment, the mobile terminal  100  which is connected to the video media providing server  200  to communicate with each other stores the video media which are downloaded from the video media providing server  200  in the storing unit  160 . 
       FIGS. 4A and 4B  are exemplary views for explaining a process of downloading a video medium by a mobile terminal which accesses a video media providing server according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. 
       FIG. 4A  illustrates an example of a screen connected to the video media providing server  200 . As illustrated in  FIG. 4A , in order to allow the mobile terminal  100  to receive selection of a video medium to be downloaded from the user, the video media providing server  200  classifies video media to be provided to the user for every category and provides a category list to the user through the mobile terminal  100 . For example, the mobile terminal  100  which is connected to the video media providing server  200  outputs a category list, which is classified into a music video C 1 , boasts C 2 , movie promotion C 3 , religion C 4 , K-pop C 5 , travel C 6 , comic C 7 , daily life C 8 , company promotion C 9 , and the like, on a screen to provide the category list to the user. The present disclosure does not specifically limit category classification criteria of the video media. 
     In this case, when the mobile terminal  100  receives a selection input for any one category from the user, the video media providing server  200  transmits a low level category list included in the category to the mobile terminal  100  or transmits a video media list included in the selected category to the mobile terminal  100  to output the video media list on the screen. For example, as illustrated in  FIG. 4B , when there is a selection input for a music video C 1  category from the user, the mobile terminal  100  enumerates the video media lists included in the category to be output on the screen. Here, as the video media lists, not only a title of the video media, but also information such as a number of times of being downloaded by the user, a number of times of being recommended by the user, a reproducing time, or a media file capacity may be provided to the user. Here, the information which is provided to the user may be obtained from statistics of information collected from several users by the video media providing server  200  or extracted from attribute information of a video media file stored in the video media providing server  200 . 
     In the meantime, the mobile terminal  100  may receive a command for enumerating the video media lists from the user. Accordingly, the mobile terminal  100  enumerates the video media lists in accordance with a popularity order (based on the number of times being downloaded by the user or the number of times being recommended by the user) or a latest order (based on a time stored in the video media providing server  200 ) to output the video media lists on the screen. 
     When the mobile terminal  100  receives a selection input for at least one of the video media lists output on the screen, the mobile terminal  100  transmits a download request for the at least one selected video media to the video media providing server  200 . The video media providing server  200  transmits the video media file to the mobile terminal  100  in accordance with the download request so that the mobile terminal  100  downloads the video media file to be stored in the storing unit  160 . 
     In this case, during the downloading process, the mobile terminal  100  may output advertisement (or a video advertisement or a banner image) on the screen, as illustrated in  FIG. 4C . That is, the advertisement is inserted in a part of the screen on which the video media list transmitted from the video media providing server  200  is displayed to be output. However, this may cause repulsion of the users. Further, when the advertisement is exposed during the downloading process, boredom of the users which may be caused during the downloading process may be resolved. Here, the advertisement which is output by the mobile terminal  100  may be provided by an advertisement providing server (not illustrated) or the video media providing server  200  in accordance with the download request which is input from the user. 
     In the meantime, according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the user may upload at least one video medium selected from the video media stored in the storing unit  160  to the video media providing server  200 . In this case, the video media to be uploaded may be a video medium which is downloaded from the video media providing server  200 , a video medium obtained through the AN input unit  120  or a video medium obtained by editing the video medium. However, a type of the video media is not specifically limited thereto. 
     When the user uploads the video media to the video media providing server  200  through the mobile terminal  100 , as illustrated in  FIG. 5 , a category to be uploaded is selected to upload the video media to the category or a new category is created to upload the video media to the newly created category. 
     Similarly, during an uploading process, the mobile terminal  100  desirably outputs the advertisement (or the video advertisement or the banner image) on the screen. That is, the advertisement is inserted in a part of the screen on which the video media list stored in the storing unit  160  is displayed to be output to the video media providing server  200 . However, this may cause repulsion of the users. Further, when the advertisement is exposed during the uploading process, boredom of the users which may be caused during the uploading process may be resolved. Here, the advertisement which is output by the mobile terminal  100  may be provided by an advertisement providing server (not illustrated) or the video media providing server  200  in accordance with the download request which is input from the user. 
     The users which are connected to the video media providing server  200  share the video media, through the video media which are uploaded from the user as described above so that the users may communicate with each other by means of the video media. 
     Here, according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when the user uploads a specific video media to the video media providing server  200 , a lock code such as a password may be set to the specific video media or a specific category to be uploaded. Therefore, the video media providing server  200  transmits the video media such that the video media is downloaded only when a corresponding unlock code is input or provides a video media list included in the specific category. Therefore, the specific video media may be suppressed from being indiscriminately exposed to a plurality of anonymous users. 
     In the second step S 200 , before the mobile terminal  100  enters the initial screen by switching the inactive state of the mobile terminal  100  into the active state, an arbitrary video medium among at least one video medium previously selected from the video media stored in the storing unit  160  is reproduced to be output on the entire screen. Further, an interface for receiving an initial screen entering command from the user may be provided. Further, the third step S 300  is a process for entering the initial screen in accordance with the command when the initial screen entering command from the user is input. 
     Here, the initial screen is a first screen generated when the inactive state of the mobile terminal  100  is switched to the active state. Generally, the initial screen is a screen generated when the inactive state is switched to the active state by pressing a physical button, for example, a power button or a home button, by the user. For example, the initial screen may represent a lock screen for receiving an unlock input (a password input or a pattern input) from the user or a background screen on which program icons for receiving a program executing command stored in the mobile terminal  100  are enumerated. 
     Here, the video media is not a still image or an image with a “gif” format which sequentially outputs a plurality of still images, but a video including a sound and an image such as “avi” or “mp4” format. 
     Specifically, in the second step S 200 , the control unit  170  or the sensing unit  140  detects that a screen of the terminal is turned on. When it is detected that the screen of the terminal is turned on, the control unit  170  reproduces one of the selected video media by playing a video player to output the video media on the screen before outputting the initial screen on the screen. In this case, even though the mobile terminal  100  is rebooted, the control unit  170  may repeat the above operations. 
     During the second step S 200 , as illustrated in  FIG. 6 , the mobile terminal  100  plays the video player first before entering the initial screen so that the at least one video medium selected by the user is reproduced therethrough. Therefore, the program icon is not disposed on the screen on which the video is reproduced, which is different from the related art. As a result, interruption of watching the video media may be removed in advance. 
     Further, the user may immediately watch the wanted video media at any time without having inconvenient of manipulating a file searching program or a video player to access the video media. 
     The video media list which is reproduced by the video player before entering the initial screen is formed by at least one video medium selected by the user. However, in order to suppress the same video media from being reproduced whenever the status of the mobile terminal  100  is repeatedly switched (from the inactive state to the active state), the video media to be reproduced may be arbitrary video medium among at least one selected video media. As described above, since the video media which are selected by the intention of the user is reproduced, as compared with a technique which reproduces the video media provided from the video media providing server  200 , there is no worry of being exposed to reckless advertisement. Since the video media stored in the storing unit  160  is reproduced, there is no issue of expense which may be generated while the streaming video image is reproduced. Further, even though the mobile terminal  100  is not connected to the wireless communication network including the mobile terminal to communicate with each other, the mobile terminal  100  may be normally driven. 
     In the meantime, when the mobile terminal  100  reproduces the video media before entering the initial screen, a user command for entering the initial screen may be input. The user command may be performed by a touch input on any one area of the screen. That is, when the user wants to quickly stop the video player, the mobile terminal  100  may enter the initial screen by simply touching the screen. 
     At the time of entering the initial screen, the video player which is played by the mobile terminal  100  ends or is switched to a standby mode. Therefore, the video player which is played according to the present disclosure does not affect several programs which are operated on the initial screen. 
     As described above, since the video player ends by simple manipulation, an interface for suppressing a video which is being reproduced and watched from being ended by unintentional touch input, due to an attribute of the video media having a predetermined reproducing time may be desirably provided. Accordingly, as illustrated in  FIG. 7B , in order to suppress the mobile terminal from ending the video player which is being played by the touch input to enter the initial screen while reproducing the video media, the mobile terminal  100  may provide an interface such as an initial screen entering prevention icon B. That is, the mobile terminal  100  may set whether to generate a user command to enter the initial screen by a touch input on any one area of the screen through a selection input for the initial screen entering prevention icon B. 
     In this case, the initial screen entering prevention icon B is output when the video media list is output while reproducing the video media as illustrated in  FIG. 7B  or output on the screen together with the video media selection icon S for receiving the user command for outputting the video media list. 
     In the meantime, the mobile terminal  100  which reproduces the video media before entering the initial screen may provide the video media selection icon S for receiving the user command to output the video media list on the screen to the user, as illustrated in  FIG. 7A . 
     That is, in the second step S 200 , an interface for receiving a selection of a video medium to be currently reproduced from the selected media list or the video media stored in the storing unit  160 , without entering the initial screen to play the video player may be provided. 
     When there is a selection input for the video media selection icon S from the user, as illustrated in  FIG. 7B , the mobile terminal  100  enumerates the video media list which is set in advance by the user or the video media list stored in the storing unit  160  to provide the lists to the user. When there is a selection input of the user from the enumerated video media lists, the mobile terminal  100  may immediately reproduce the selected video media. 
     As described above, an environment for selecting a video medium which is wanted by the user to watch without entering the initial screen, convenience of the user is increased. 
     As described above, the video medium which is reproduced according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is an arbitrary video medium of a list formed by video media which are selected by the user. However, according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the storing unit  160  stores a weekly video media reproducing list and a video medium to be reproduced by the mobile terminal  100  may be an arbitrary video medium selected from the video media list corresponding to the present day of the week. 
     Accordingly, the mobile terminal  100  may receive an input for setting the weekly video media reproducing list from the user. As a specific example thereof, the mobile terminal  100  may provide an interface for setting a video media list to be reproduced every weekday or an interface for selecting a day of the week when any one of video media is reproduced, as illustrated in  FIG. 8 , to the user, to receive a setting input. 
     As described above, a video media list to be reproduced every weekday is set and the mobile terminal  100  reproduces the video media of the corresponding day of the week in accordance with the setting so that the user is provided with the customized video media in accordance with the user&#39;s preference, so that satisfaction is improved. 
     In the meantime, according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the control method of the mobile terminal  100  may further include a step of receiving information on at least one video medium to be transmitted, the opposite party to which the at least one video medium is transmitted, and a time to transmit the video medium, from the user, a step of transmitting the input information and the video medium based on the input information to a time capsule server  300 , a step of transmitting, by the time capsule server  300 , an alarm signal to the opposite party when it reaches the time, and a step of transmitting, by the time capsule server  300 , the at least one video medium to a terminal of the opposite party in accordance with a request received from the terminal of the opposite party. 
       FIGS. 9A and 9B  are exemplary views of a screen using a time capsule server according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     The user may transmit a video message such as a confession message, a longing message, a birthday message, or a love message to a specific opposite party. Further, in order to transmit the video medium selected at a desired time on a desired date, the mobile terminal  100  may set information of the opposite party (for example, a phone number of the mobile terminal, and the like) to which the video message is transmitted, a time to transmit the video message (see  FIG. 9A ), and a video media list to be transmitted. 
     The mobile terminal  100  which is completely set may transmit the video media to the time capsule server  300  together with the information of the opposite party and the time information. 
     When the current time reaches the set date and time, the time capsule server  300  uses a timer (not illustrated) which calculates the current time to transmit the alarm signal to the corresponding opposite party (specifically, the terminal of the opposite party). When there is a request of transmitting the video media from the terminal of the opposite party, the time capsule server  300  may transmit the video media which are uploaded by the mobile terminal  100  to the terminal of the opposite party in accordance with the request. 
     Here, the time capsule server  300  transmits the alarm signal instead of the video media so that a terminal of the opposite party in which the video player which is driven before entering the initial screen is not provided plays the transmitted video media. The alarm signal may be a push message or a text message which allows the user who receives the alarm signal to access or download the transmitted video media. 
     In the meantime, the control method of the mobile terminal  100  according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a step of providing an interface for editing the video media stored in the storing unit  160 . 
     Specifically, the storing unit  160  may include a first storing unit for storing at least one video medium and a second storing unit for storing at least one sound media and provide an interface for combining the at least one video medium stored in the first storing unit and at least one sound media stored in the second storing unit. 
       FIG. 10  is an exemplary view of an interface screen which edits a video medium according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     For example, as illustrated in  FIG. 10 , the mobile terminal  100  may provide an interface for receiving a user input to adjust a volume of a sound of the video media selected from the video media which are stored by being photographed by the A/V input unit  120  or stored by being downloaded from the video media providing server  200  and a volume of a sound of the sound media selected from the sound media stored in the storing unit. The mobile terminal  100  combines the video media and the sound media whose volumes are adjusted to a volume set by the user to create a new video media to be stored in the storing unit  160 . 
     The newly created video media is set to be reproduced first when the inactive state is switched into the active state before entering the initial screen, uploaded to the video media providing server  200  to be shared by other users, or uploaded to the time capsule server  300  to be transmitted to a terminal of a specific opposite party at a specific time. 
     The control method of the mobile terminal  100  according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a step of determining whether the current time is a predetermined alarm time and a step of reproducing an arbitrary video medium among the at least one predetermined video image to be output on the entire screen when the current time is a predetermined alarm signal time. 
     Generally, the mobile terminal which has the alarm function outputs a predetermined sound through the sound output unit  152  at an alarm time which is set by the user. 
     However, when the mobile terminal  100  according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure switches the inactive state into the active state at the alarm time and reproduces the video image which is set in advance by the user before entering the initial screen, attention of the users may be further concentrated to maximize the alarm effect.
