An electronic device includes a hinge structure, a first housing, second housing foldably connected to the hinge structure and configured to be foldable with respect to the first housing, a first display disposed from at least a part of a first surface to at least a part of a third surface, a second display, a first sensor configured to collect sensor data related to movement of the first housing, a second sensor configured to collect sensor data related to movement of the second housing, and a processor operatively connected with the first display, the second display, the first sensor, and the second sensor. The processor is configured to identify a folding angle between the first housing and the second housing by using the first sensor and the second sensor.

Foldable electronic device for controlling screen rotation, and operating method therefor

An electronic device is provided, which includes a first housing and a second housing, a first sensor, a second sensor, a display, a first processor, and a second processor. The first processor is configured to obtain, via the first sensor, first information about movement of the electronic device, obtain, via the second sensor, second information about the movement of the electronic device, determine a type of the movement of the electronic device based on the first information and/or the second information, determine an arrangement state of the electronic device, based on a comparison of the first information and the second information, and control the second processor based on the determined type of the movement and the determined arrangement state of the electronic device. The second processor is configured to perform a specified operation based on the command.

Electronic device and method for controlling electronic device

An audio output device is provided. The audio output device includes a housing, an audio output unit outputting audio data, a first contact sensor configured to detect a contact of an external object, a second contact sensor configured to detect a contact of the external object, a proximity sensor configured to detect a proximity of the external object within a predetermined distance, and a processor operatively connected to the audio output unit, the first contact sensor, the second contact sensor, and the proximity sensor. The processor may be configured to execute a wearing detection mode of the audio output device, to determine the contact of the external object through the first contact sensor, to determine the contact of the external object through the second contact sensor, to determine the proximity of the external object through the proximity sensor, and to determine that the audio output device is in a state worn by the external object.

Audio output device and method to detect wearing thereof

Various embodiments provide an electronic device and a method therefor, the electronic device comprising: at least one memory; a communication interface; one or more sensors; a location module; and at least one processor functionally connected to the at least one memory, the communication interface, the one or more sensors, and the location module, wherein the at least one processor is configured to acquire sensing data from at least one sensor among the one or more sensors, estimate a vehicle on-boarding state on the basis of the sensing data, and recognize, on the basis of the estimated vehicle on-boarding state, a vehicle on-boarding state by using the communication interface or the location module. Other embodiments are also possible.
