A method and a device capable of supporting various display methods using an electronic device and/or glasses-type wearable electronic device (e.g., AR glasses) in an augmented reality (AR) are provided. An AR providing device for AR services includes a display and a processor. The processor is configured to provide content through an AR screen, detect a specified external object through the AR screen while providing the content, determine a display mode for providing the content, based on detection of the specified external object, control to display the content through a display of the specified external object, based on the determined display mode, and perform control to display the content through a virtual display area associated with the specified external object on the AR screen, based on the determined display mode.

Apparatus and method for providing contents related to augmented reality service between electronic device and wearable electronic device

A wearable device according to various embodiments may include a display configured to allow external light toward a first surface to go through a second surface opposite to the first surface, and having a display area on the second surface, a memory for storing instructions, at least one camera, and at least one processor configured to, when executing the instructions, display content on the display area of the display, detect an external entity using the at least one camera, recognize the external entity as a controller for controlling the content having one designated shape of a plurality of designated shapes, identify a posture change of the external entity recognized as the controller, a gesture input for the external entity recognized as the controller, or a combination thereof using the at least one camera, and control the content, based on the identification.

Wearable device for using external entity as controller and method

A wearable electronic device is disclosed, including a transparent display, a camera, communication circuitry, a memory storing instructions, and at least one processor. The wearable electronic device receives, through the communication circuitry, screen data from the electronic device and displaying the screen data in a first area of the at least one display, while receiving the screen data, detect, using the at least one camera, a presence of a body part holding the electronic device within a field of view of the at least one camera and determine whether the presence of the body part overlaps the first area, in response to detecting overlap of the first area, display the screen data to a second area of the at least one display different from the first area.

Electronic device for adaptively altering information display area and operation method thereof

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to a device for displaying content and an operation method therefor. An electronic device of the present invention comprises a display device, at least one processor, and a memory coupled to the processor, wherein, the memory may store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to obtain at least one deformed image corresponding to a viewpoint change on the basis of an image contained in content in response to detection of a thumbnail generation event for the content, map the obtained at least one deformed image to a three-dimensional object, obtain at least one partial image comprising at least a portion of the image mapped to the three-dimensional object, generate thumbnail content comprising the obtained at least one partial image, and control the display device to display the thumbnail content. Other embodiments may be possible.

Device for displaying content and operation method therefor

A device and a method of providing an augmented reality service in an electronic device by interworking with another electronic device is provided. A first electronic device includes a communication circuit, a camera, a sensor, a display device, and a processor, the display device, the sensor, and the camera, the processor configured to establish communication with a second electronic device, obtain information on at least one object included in a field of view of a user wearing the first electronic device through the camera or the sensor, obtain information on a user's gaze, determine whether to interwork with the second electronic device for an augmented reality service, based on the information on the user's gaze and the information on the at least one object, and when it is determined to interwork with the second electronic device, transmit interworking information on the augmented reality service to the second electronic device.

Electronic device for providing augmented reality service and operating method thereof

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device comprises a touchscreen, a communication module, and at least one processor operatively connected with the touchscreen and the communication module. The at least one processor is configured to establish a communication connection with an augmented reality (AR) device using the communication module, transmit data for display of a first content to the AR device using the communication module, display a first user interface for controlling the first content on the touchscreen, transmit data for display of the first content varied by a first input received through the first user interface to the AR device using the communication module, transmit data for display of a second content different from the first content to the AR device using the communication module, display a second user interface for controlling the second content on the touchscreen, and transmit data for display of the second content varied by a second input received through the second user interface to the AR device using the communication module. Other various embodiments are possible as well.

Electronic device, augmented reality device for providing augmented reality service, and method of operating same

The present disclosure relates to an electronic device and an operating method thereof. The electronic device includes a memory configured to store at least one expected movement path, and a processor configured to confirm a first location of a user, predict a second location on a basis of the first location and a pre-stored at least one expected movement path, and provide an information service providing signal to at least one external device present in the second location. The method includes confirming a first location of a user, predicting a second location on a basis of the first location and a pre-stored at least one expected movement path, and providing an information service providing signal to at least one external device present in the second location.
