Electronic device and method for controlling audio signal output using the same

Abstract

An electronic device according to the disclosure may include: a display disposed around an eye of a user when being worn on a body part of the user, a plurality of microphones configured to receive an external signal, a camera, a speaker configured to reproduce a signal, at least one processor, comprising processing circuitry, and a memory. At least one processor, individually and/or collectively, may be configured to execute the instructions stored in the memory and to operate any one of a first mode or a second mode according to a designated condition, the first mode displaying a virtual space on the display and the second mode displaying a real space captured via the camera on the display. Based on the operation of one of the first mode or the second mode, at least one processor, individually and/or collectively may be configured to control the electronic device to: differently determine a location of a microphone to be activated for inputting an external signal among the plurality of microphones disposed in the electronic device, may differently determine a number of microphones to be activated for inputting an external signal among the plurality of microphones disposed in the electronic device, may differently determine whether to activate functions related to amplifying or blocking an external sound, and may differently determine a direction of beamforming generation for receiving a voice signal via the microphone.
