Electronic device and method for controlling the electronic device thereof

An electronic device, comprising:

• a communication interface;
• an input interface;
• a memory storing at least one instruction;
• and
• a processor configured to control the electronic device by executing the at least one instruction stored in the memory,
• wherein the processor is further configured to:
• receive a trigger speech of a user through the input interface,
• enter a speech recognition mode to recognize a user's speech command in response to the trigger speech, and transmit information to enter a speech recognition mode to at least one external device located at home through the communication interface,
• obtain a first speech information corresponding to a speech uttered by a user from a microphone included in the input interface while operating in a speech recognition mode and receive at least one second speech information corresponding to a speech uttered by the user from the at least one external device through the communication interface,
• identify a task corresponding to a speech uttered by the user and an external device to perform the task based on the first speech information and the at least one second speech information;
• and
• transmit, to the external device, information about the task through the communication interface.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions, that when executed by a processor of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to:

• receive a trigger speech of a user through the input interface,
• enter a speech recognition mode to recognize a user's speech command in response to the trigger speech, and transmit information to enter a speech recognition mode to at least one external device located at home through the communication interface,
• obtain a first speech information corresponding to a speech uttered by a user from a microphone included in the input interface while operating in a speech recognition mode and receive at least one second speech information corresponding to a speech uttered by the user from the at least one external device through the communication interface,
• identify a task corresponding to a speech uttered by the user and an external device to perform the task based on the first speech information and the at least one second speech information;
• and
• transmit, to the external device, information about the task through the communication interface.
