Summary:An electronic device may comprise at least one sensor including a proximity sensor, a touch sensor, and a processor operatively connected to the at least one sensor and the touch sensor, wherein the processor is configured to: sense the distance between an external object and the electronic device by using the proximity sensor; when the distance between the external object and the electronic device is shorter than a predetermined distance, disable the touch sensor or ignore a signal from the touch sensor; determine whether the electronic device satisfies a designated condition on the basis of a sensing value obtained from the at least one sensor; and when the electronic device satisfies the designated condition, enable the touch sensor or recognize a signal from the touch sensor. In addition, various other embodiments identified through the specification are possible. L'invention concerne un dispositif électronique pouvant comprendre au moins un capteur comprenant un capteur de proximité, un capteur tactile, et un processeur connecté de manière fonctionnelle audit au moins un capteur et au capteur tactile, le processeur étant configuré : pour détecter la distance entre un objet externe et le dispositif électronique à l'aide du capteur de proximité ; lorsque la distance entre l'objet externe et le dispositif électronique est inférieure à une distance prédéterminée, désactiver le capteur tactile ou ignorer un signal provenant du capteur tactile ; pour déterminer si le dispositif électronique satisfait une condition désignée en fonction d'une valeur de détection obtenue à partir dudit au moins un capteur ; et lorsque le dispositif électronique satisfait la condition désignée, pour activer le capteur tactile ou pour reconnaître un signal provenant du capteur tactile. De plus, divers autres modes de réalisation identifiés dans la description sont possibles. 전자 장치는 근접 센서를 포함하는 적어도 하나의 센서, 터치 센서, 및 적어도 하나의 센서 및 터치 센서와 작동적으로 연결된 프로세서를 포함하고, 프로세서는 근접 센서를 이용하여 외부 객체와 전자 장치 사이의 거리를 감지하고, 외부 객체와 전자 장치 사이의 거리가 일정 거리 미만이면, 터치 센서를 비활성화(disable)하거나 터치 센서로부터의 신호를 무시(ignore)하고, 적어도 하나의 센서로부터 획득된 센싱 값에 기반하여 전자 장치가 지정된 조건을 만족하는지 결정하고, 전자 장치가 지정된 조건을 만족하는 경우, 터치 센서를 활성화(enable)하거나 터치 센서로부터의 신호를 인지(recognize)하도록 설정될 수 있다. 이 외에도 명세서를 통해 파악되는 다양한 실시 예가 가능하다.
