An electronic device may include: an output module comprising output circuitry, a communication module comprising communication circuitry configured to communicate with at least one external device, a first sensor configured to sense a biometric signal, a second sensor configured to sense an inertial signal, and a processor operatively connected to the output module, the communication module, the first sensor, and the second sensor. The processor may be configured to determine a location of the electronic device for a body based on a signal transmitted or received with the at least one external device through the communication module in response to sensing the biometric signal, to determine a posture of the electronic device based on information obtained through the second sensor, to determine a measurement posture based on the location and the posture of the electronic device, and to provide a guide to correspond the measurement posture to a predetermined reference posture.

Method for detecting biometric information and electronic device supporting the same

Disclosed is a wearable electronic device including: a housing including a first surface forming a front surface of the wearable electronic device, a second surface facing away from the first surface, and a side surface surrounding an internal space between the first surface and the second surface, a first electrode area positioned in a part of the first surface and the side surface and including a plurality of electrodes, an antenna positioned in a part of the first surface and the side surface and defined by the first electrode area and a segment area, a display visible through at least part of the first surface, a second electrode area positioned on the second surface, a processor, and a memory operatively connected to the processor and including instructions. When a touch input to at least part of the first electrode area is detected, the wearable electronic device obtains a biometric signal through the first electrode area, the second electrode area, or a combination of the first electrode area and the second electrode area and performs wireless communication through the antenna.

Wearable electronic device comprising antenna and electrode

An apparatus and method for obtaining biometric information in an electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a display comprising one or more pixels, the one or more pixels including a first sub pixel, a second sub pixel, and a third sub pixel, and one or more sensors configured to obtain biometric information about an external object, and a processor. The processor is configured to cause the electronic device to: identify first biometric information and second biometric information from the biometric information, and output light having first properties through a first pixel set corresponding to the first biometric information, and obtain the first biometric information using the one or more sensors, and output light having second properties through a second pixel set corresponding to the second biometric information, and obtain the second biometric information using the one or more sensors.
