Abstract
Disclosed is a method by which an electronic device recognizes biometric information, comprising the steps of: sensing a direction of an electronic device; and recognizing biometric information by using a parameter corresponding to the sensed direction.
Claims21
A method of recognizing biometric information from a user's face by an electronic device, the method comprising:
- displaying a screen that requests the biometric information from the user's face;
- identifying an orientation of the electronic device;
- and
- recognizing the biometric information from the user's face using a parameter corresponding to the identified orientation, the parameter being related to an infrared light emission or an image sensor.
A method of recognizing iris information by an electronic device, the method comprising:
- displaying a screen that requests the iris information;
- identifying whether an orientation of the electronic device is a first direction or a second direction;
- recognizing first iris information using a parameter corresponding to the first direction, the parameter being related to an infrared light emission or an image sensor;
- storing information for the recognized first iris information and the first direction;
- controlling the parameter when the electronic device moves to the second direction;
- recognizing second iris information using the controlled parameter;
- and
- storing information for the recognized second iris information and the second direction.
An electronic device that recognizes biometric information from a user's face, the electronic device comprising:
- a display;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- control the display to display a screen that requests the biometric information from the user's face;
- identify an orientation of the electronic device;
- and
- recognize the biometric information from the user's face using a parameter corresponding to the identified orientation, the parameter being related to an infrared light emission or an image sensor.
An electronic device that recognizes iris information, the electronic device comprising:
- a display;
- a memory;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- control the display to display a screen that requests the iris information;
- identify whether an orientation of the electronic device is a first direction or a second direction;
- recognize first iris information using a parameter corresponding to the first direction, the parameter being related to an infrared light emission or an image sensor;
- store information for the recognized first iris information and the first direction in the memory;
- control the parameter when the electronic device moves to the second direction;
- recognize second iris information using the controlled parameter;
- and
- store the recognized second iris information and the second direction in the memory.
