  • Publication number: 20170075415
    Abstract: An electronic device and method that detects an event related to the user's skin and performs a function corresponding to the event by using information on the skin color type of the user, and further provides a control method thereof. The occurrence of an event is detected that is related to at least a part of a user's body. Information regarding a light is obtained a sensor module that is functionally connected with the electronic device according to the detection result. A function is performed that corresponds to the detected event by using information corresponding to the obtained information on a light from among type information stored in a memory.
