Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for measuring an altitude of a terminal which can correct an altitude error according to temporal and spatial changes are provided. The apparatus includes an atmospheric pressure measuring unit for measuring an atmospheric pressure from a barometer included in the terminal, a position determiner for measuring position information of the terminal, and a controller for, when a reference atmospheric pressure reception period is not generated, predicting a current reference atmospheric pressure by using previously received reference atmospheric pressures and measuring a current altitude by using the predicted reference atmospheric pressure and the measured atmospheric pressure.
Abstract:
A method of operating an electronic device is provided. The method includes detecting a plurality of fingerprint drags after a touch on a portion of the electronic device, wherein each of the plurality of fingerprint drags is a consecutive drag from a previous drag and each of the plurality of fingerprint drags has a different orientation from each other; and identifying a fingerprint based on a plurality of images acquired from the plurality of fingerprint drags, wherein each of the plurality of images is compared with corresponding portion of a reference image.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an electronic device including a display, a touch recognition sensor that recognizes a touch input on the display; a fingerprint recognition sensor that recognizes a fingerprint input on the display, and a processor coupled to the display, the touch recognition sensor, and the fingerprint recognition sensor, wherein the processor is configured to activate the touch recognition sensor, display at least one user interface that receives the fingerprint input on a fingerprint recognition area of the display, activate at least a portion of the fingerprint recognition sensor, and selectively deactivate a portion of the touch recognition sensor corresponding to the activated portion of the fingerprint recognition sensor.
Abstract:
An electronic device having a fingerprint verification function is provided. The electronic device includes a display; a touch recognition sensor pattern for recognizing a touch input on the display; a fingerprint recognition sensor pattern for recognizing a fingerprint input on the display; and a processor functionally connected to the display, the touch recognition sensor pattern and the fingerprint recognition sensor pattern. The processor determines whether a fingerprint recognition mode is executed, and selectively activates the touch recognition sensor pattern and the fingerprint recognition sensor pattern according to whether the determined fingerprint recognition mode is executed.
