Title:
METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR RECOGNIZING ANGLE OF ROTATION OF ANNULAR MEMBER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/014135
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
According to various embodiments, an electronic device may comprise: a front cover; a rear cover which is disposed opposite to the front cover; an annular member which is a side member surrounding at least a part of the space between the front cover and the rear cover, and includes a display at least partially disposed along the front cover and at least one magnetic member arranged at a predetermined first angle and a predetermined first distance with respect to the center of the display; a first Hall sensor which is disposed at a predetermined second distance from the center of the display; a second Hall sensor which is disposed at the predetermined second distance from the center of the display and is spaced a second angle smaller than the first angle apart from the first Hall sensor; a memory; and a processor which is operatively connected to the memory. The processor may: acquire first magnetic information corresponding to the at least one magnetic member on the basis of the first Hall sensor; acquire second magnetic information corresponding to the at least one magnetic member on the basis of the second Hall sensor; on the basis of the first magnetic information and the second magnetic information, identify whether the annular member rotates; and in response to rotation of the annular member, control a user interface displayed through the display. Various other embodiments may also be possible.
