US 12,693,680 B2 · Electronic apparatus and method for controlling thereof

Abstract

A method for controlling an electronic apparatus, includes: identifying whether an emergency context is occurred by obtaining a sound near the electronic apparatus; based on identifying that the emergency context is occurred, obtaining information relating to a location where a sound relating to the emergency context is generated based on information relating to the obtained sound; based on the information relating to the location, determining a first area corresponding to the location where the sound relating to the emergency context is generated; controlling a driver to move to the determined first area; obtaining information relating to the emergency context from the first area; based on context information and user history information, determining a second area corresponding to the location of the user; controlling the driver to move to the determined second area; and providing the information relating to the emergency context to the user in the second area.
