  • Patent number: 10900780
    Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a barometer sensor configured to measure a barometric pressure of the electronic device, a motion sensor configured to detect a motion of the electronic device, and a processor configured to obtain, using the barometer sensor, first data relating to a change of the barometric pressure, obtain, using the motion sensor while the first data is obtained, second data relating to the motion of the electronic device, and if the first data corresponds to the second data, determine the first data as data corresponding to the barometric pressure.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9973618
    Abstract: An electronic device and its operating method are provided. The method includes, while a display displays content, identifying, by a first processor, state information of the electronic device using a first sensor based on a first cycle, determining, by the first processor, whether the state information is maintained using the first sensor based on a second cycle, when determining that the state information is maintained based on the second cycle, providing, by the first processor to a second processor, first notification information corresponding to the determination, and changing, by the second processor, a state of the display in response to the first notification information.

  • Publication number: 20180132031
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus and an operating method are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a motion sensor, an optical sensor, a memory, and a processor. The processor determines whether the electronic apparatus is worn on a user's body using at least one of the motion sensor and the optical sensor. The processor obtains sensor data according to a motion of the electronic apparatus using at least one of the motion sensor and the optical sensor when determining whether the electronic apparatus is worn on the user's body. In addition, the processor compares the obtained data with at least one reference information stored in the memory, determines whether the electronic apparatus is normally worn based on the comparison, and performs at least one operation based on the determination.
