Abstract
An electronic device for measuring hydrature, and a method for the same are disclosed. The electronic device includes a display, a capacitive sensor and a processor implementing the method, including setting an attribute of a capacitive sensor using a first value, acquiring a first data measurement from the capacitive sensor in when an external object contacts a display and determining that a touch input has occurred based on the first data, detecting whether the determined touch input satisfies a prespecified condition, setting the operational attribute of the capacitive sensor using a second value when the prespecified condition is satisfied, acquiring a second data measurement from the capacitive sensor while the external object contacts the display when the at least one operational attribute is set using the second value, and determining a hydrature value associated with the external object at least based on the acquired second data measurement.
