External noise-based microphone and sensor control method and electronic device

A method of controlling an electronic device based on external noise, comprising:

• obtaining a first sound signal through at least one of a plurality of microphones of the electronic device;
• obtaining a second sound signal through at least one of a plurality of axes of a sensor of the electronic device;
• identifying a noise level from among a plurality of noise levels based on the first sound signal and the second sound signal;
• controlling one or more of the plurality of microphones to be turned on or off based on the noise level;
• and
• controlling one or more of the plurality of axes to be turned on or off based on the noise level.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having instructions recorded thereon, that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

• obtain a first sound signal through at least one of a plurality of microphones of an electronic device;
• obtain a second sound signal through at least one of a plurality of axes of a sensor of the electronic device;
• identify a noise level from among a plurality of noise levels based on the first sound signal and the second sound signal;
• control one or more of the plurality of microphones to be turned on or off based on the noise level;
• and
• control one or more of the plurality of axes to be turned on or off based on the noise level.
