Abstract
A method for user authentication in an electronic device includes: detecting at least one rotation of the electronic device; obtaining at least one rotation angle based on the detected at least one rotation; obtaining at least one code based on the at least one rotation angle and a user authentication angle, the user authentication angle being obtained from a user gaze point that is set, and storing the at least one code as an authentication code; and unlocking the electronic device in response to an input of a code matching the authentication code.
