Hide Tablet system bar

Question

I want to hide system bar for tablet device. I searched a lot but not succeed. I added image for it.

I found some solution like

View v = findViewById(R.id.view_id);
v.setSystemUiVisibility(View.STATUS_BAR_HIDDEN); 

but I dont know how to use it

And I know that is possible as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1228046 Can any one know how to do this ?
