Abstract
Disclosed is an electronic device including an infrared sensor, a power supply part which supplies power to the infrared sensor. The electronic device controls the power supply part to supply a first power voltage signal with an on-duty ratio of less than 1 to the infrared sensor, and control, based on a trigger signal being received through the infrared sensor while the infrared sensor is operating based on the first power voltage signal, the power supply part to supply a second power voltage signal with an on-duty ratio of 1 to the infrared sensor.
Claims20
An electronic device, comprising:
- an infrared sensor;
- a power supply part which supplies power to the infrared sensor;
- memory storing instructions;
- and
- at least one processor,
- wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:
- control the power supply part to supply a first power voltage signal with an on-duty ratio of less than 1 to the infrared sensor;
- and
- control, based on a trigger signal being received through the infrared sensor while the infrared sensor is operating based on the first power voltage signal, the power supply part to supply a second power voltage signal with an on-duty ratio of 1 to the infrared sensor.
A method for controlling an electronic device comprising an infrared sensor, the method comprising:
- supplying a first power voltage signal with an on-duty ratio of less than 1 to the infrared sensor;
- and
- supplying, based on a trigger signal being received through the infrared sensor while the infrared sensor is operating based on the first power voltage signal, a second power voltage signal with an on-duty ratio of 1 to the infrared sensor.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer instructions that, when executed by a processor of an electronic device which includes an infrared sensor, cause the electronic device to perform operations comprising:
- supplying a first power voltage signal with an on-duty ratio of less than 1 to the infrared sensor, and
- supplying, based on a trigger signal being received through the infrared sensor while the infrared sensor is operating based on the first power voltage signal, a second power voltage signal with an on-duty ratio of 1 to the infrared sensor.
