Abstract:
An electronic device and method are disclosed. The electronic device includes a communication circuit, a memory storing identifiers for one or more external electronic devices defined as a group, and a processor. The processor implements the method, including receiving biometric information detected by an external biometric detection device via transmission from at least one external electronic device of the group, selecting from within the group a particular external electronic device based on the received biometric information and the information related to the particular external electronic device, and transmitting the received biometric information to the selected particular external electronic device.
Abstract:
A method of operating an electronic device is provided. The method includes detecting a gesture through a first sensor module, acquiring first biometric information through a second sensor module in response to the gesture, determining whether a user's skin contacts the second sensor module based on the first biometric information, and acquiring second biometric information from the user's skin through the second sensor module according to a result of the determination.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for extending a network are provided. The method includes registering, by a transmission-side remote access agent in a first network, a plurality of transmission channels for transmitting data; receiving, by the transmission-side remote access agent, event request messages each including access information regarding an apparatus from a plurality of apparatuses located in a transmission-side network; storing, by the transmission-side remote access agent, access information included in the received event request messages, which cannot be used in a registered channel of a reception-side network in a second network; and converting, by the transmission-side remote access agent, the event request message to be used in the registered transmission channels, and transmitting the converted event request message to the reception-side network different from the transmission-side network.
Abstract:
A method of operating an electronic device. The method includes receiving application group information including information on at least one interested application, and transmitting the received application group information to a server so that another electronic device can utilize the information.
