Title:
TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/076167
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A wearable device according to an embodiment disclosed in the present document may include: a housing including a first surface, a second surface, and a lateral surface; a display disposed on the first surface; a contact part which is at least partially exposed to the second surface; a temperature sensing element of which a specified parameter value is changed by an object in contact with the contact part; a biometric sensor; a memory; and a processor. The processor may use the biometric sensor to supply a constant current or a constant voltage to the temperature sensing element. The processor may use the biometric sensor to measure the parameter value of the temperature sensing element, which is changed by the constant current or the constant voltage. The processor may determine a temperature of the object in contact with the contact part on the basis of the measured parameter value. Other embodiments understood through the specification are possible.
