  • Patent number: 11562670
    Abstract: Provided is an electronic device. The electronic device includes a housing that includes a front side and a back side, a display, an illuminance sensor overlapping at least one active area of the display in a top view from above the front side, at least one processor, and a memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor, while the display is in operation, to change a brightness of a screen displayed on the display, to identify display parameter information associated with the changed brightness, to set a measuring time of the illuminance sensor, based at least partially on the identified display parameter information, to acquire raw data measured during the measuring time by the illuminance sensor at a specified period, to generate intermediate data using the acquired raw data, and to calculate an illuminance value using the generated intermediate data.

  • Patent number: 11445058
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing including a front plate, a rear plate, and a side member; a display having a first surface visible through the front plate; an inertial sensor; a proximity sensor disposed on a second surface of the display; a processor; and a memory. The memory may store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to determine a user's posture through the inertial sensor, in response to activation of a specific application using a function of the proximity sensor; determine a movement of the electronic device through the inertial sensor; determine the user's intent to use the display, based on the user's posture and the movement of the electronic device; and determine a configuration value of the proximity sensor, based on the determined intent to use the display.

  • Patent number: 11422609
    Abstract: An electronic device and a method of operating an electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a display; a motion sensor; and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to determine a first state associated with a user using the motion sensor while performing a call mode; if a predefined state is detected from the first state, configure an algorithm for determining a second state, based on the first state; determine the second state using the motion sensor, based on the configured algorithm; and control the operation of the display, based on a result of determining the second state.
