Abstract
A method of operating an electronic device and an electronic device are provided. The method includes generating biometric information using at least one sensor of the electronic device, and storing the generated biometric information in a memory of the electronic device, generating access right information relating to the biometric information, determining whether an external electronic device is connected to the electronic device, and when the external electronic device is connected to the electronic device, transmitting the generated access right information to the external electronic device.
Claims20
A method of operating an electronic device, comprising:
- generating biometric information using at least one sensor of the electronic device, and storing the generated biometric information in a memory of the electronic device;
- generating access right information relating to the biometric information;
- determining whether an external electronic device is connected to the electronic device;
- and
- when the external electronic device is connected to the electronic device, transmitting the generated access right information to the external electronic device.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a memory;
- at least one sensor;
- a communication interface;
- and
- a processor configured to control the memory, the at least one sensor, and the communication interface,
- wherein the processor is further configured to generate biometric information using the at least one sensor, store the generated biometric information in the memory, generate access right information relating to the biometric information, determine whether an external electronic device is connected to the electronic device, and when the external electronic device is connected to the electronic device, transmit the generated access right information to the external electronic device through the communication interface.
