Abstract
An apparatus for detecting a body component according to an example embodiment includes: a sensor configured to detect a bio-signal of an object according to a contact pressure that gradually changes between the object and the sensor; and a processor configured to determine a time point, at which an amplitude of an alternating current (AC) component of the bio-signal is maximum or a slope of a direct current (DC) component of the bio-signal is maximum, and to detect a body component of the object based on the determined time point.
