Abstract
The present application discloses a smart device comprising a temperature sensor, and a method for controlling the same. The present application relates to a smart device comprising a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature of a certain object at a position spaced a certain distance from the object and having a measurement range varying according to the distance from the object. The present application provides a method for controlling a smart device comprising the steps of: measuring a distance from the smart device to the object for measuring the temperature of the object; if the measurement range of the temperature sensor at the measured position is not placed within the object, notifying a user that the temperature of the object cannot be measured; and directing the user to place the measurement range within the object.
