Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for providing a control function using a fingerprint sensor in an electronic device are provided. The method includes collecting information based on occurrence of an event, detecting a touch input on a fingerprint sensor, and performing a control function for the information based on the touch input on the fingerprint sensor.
Abstract:
A method is provided including detecting that a first key in a virtual keypad is pressed, the first key being associated with a first symbol, determining, by an electronic device, whether a predetermined input is received after the first key is pressed, reconfiguring the virtual keypad, without displaying the first symbol, when the predetermined input is received; and displaying the first symbol when the predetermined input is not received.
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present invention relate to an electronic device and a stress measurement method thereof. The electronic device comprises: a memory for storing a first histogram for determining reference information for computing health condition of a user; a biometric sensor; and at least one processor functionally connected to the memory and the biometric sensor, wherein the at least one processor may be configured to acquire biometric information via the biometric sensor, generate a second histogram by analyzing the acquired biometric information, accumulate the second histogram in the first histogram, thereby updating the first histogram, and update the reference information on the basis of the updated first histogram. Other various embodiments are possible.
Abstract:
An electronic device can comprise: a sensor module; and a processor for acquiring periphery state information indicating information on the outside of the electronic device and/or device state information indicating information on the inside of the electronic device, acquiring a measurement profile including information regarding target gas to be measured and a detection period of the target gas on the basis of the periphery state information and/or the device state information, and detecting the target gas through the sensor module according to the measurement profile.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for obtaining biometric information in an electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a display comprising one or more pixels, the one or more pixels including a first sub pixel, a second sub pixel, and a third sub pixel, and one or more sensors configured to obtain biometric information about an external object, and a processor. The processor is configured to cause the electronic device to: identify first biometric information and second biometric information from the biometric information, and output light having first properties through a first pixel set corresponding to the first biometric information, and obtain the first biometric information using the one or more sensors, and output light having second properties through a second pixel set corresponding to the second biometric information, and obtain the second biometric information using the one or more sensors.
Abstract:
A method for operating an electronic device is provided. The method includes detecting a first gesture on a touch screen, dividing a display region of the touch screen into two or more regions according to the first gesture, detecting a second gesture originating in one of the two or more divided regions, and displaying the second gesture according to a region attribute of the one region and the second gesture.
Abstract:
