Abstract
An electronic device, a method thereof, a non-transitory computer-readable recording medium, and a chipset are disclosed. The electronic device includes a sensor module including a plurality of sensor arrays for scanning a target object located in a predetermined vicinity of the electronic device; and a control module configured to determine a direction in which the target object is located, based on a first signal that the sensor module outputs with respect to the target object, and scan the target object located in the determined direction, wherein the sensor arrays are spaced apart from each other.
Claims25
An electronic device, comprising:
- a sensor module including a plurality of sensor arrays for scanning a target object located in a predetermined vicinity of the electronic device;
- and
- a control module configured to determine a direction in which the target object is located, based on a first signal that the sensor module outputs with respect to the target object, and scan the target object located in the determined direction;
- wherein the plurality of sensor arrays are spaced apart from each other.
A method of an electronic device, the method comprising:
- outputting a first signal for determining a direction of a target object located in a predetermined vicinity of the electronic device, by a sensor module including a plurality of sensor arrays for determining a three-dimensional (3D) shape of the target object located in the predetermined vicinity of the electronic device;
- determining a direction in which the target object is located, based on the first signal that the sensor module outputs with respect to the target object;
- and
- determining the 3D shape of the target object located in the determined direction;
- wherein the plurality of sensor arrays are spaced apart from each other.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing instructions configured to perform a method by a processor, the method comprising:
- outputting a first signal for determining a direction of a target object located in a predetermined vicinity of an electronic device, by a sensor module including a plurality of sensor arrays for determining a three-dimensional (3D) shape of the target object located in the predetermined vicinity of the electronic device;
- determining a direction in which the target object is located, based on the first signal that the sensor module outputs with respect to the target object;
- and
- determining the 3D shape of the target object located in the determined direction;
