Abstract:
An electronic device for enhancing accuracy upon contactless body temperature measurement is provided. The electronic device includes an image sensor for obtaining an image of an object, a temperature sensor disposed at a position adjacent to the image sensor for measuring a temperature of the obtained object, and a controller for performing control to determine the temperature of the object using a focal length of a camera module including the image sensor corresponding to a time of obtaining the image of the object and a temperature output from the temperature sensor corresponding to the time of obtaining the image of the object.
