Benefits of technology
Enables accurate and efficient measurement of resting heart rate during daily activities without the need for the user to remain still, while minimizing battery consumption by activating sensors only during rest periods.
Problems solved by technology
However, it is tough for the user to measure their heart rate in the same time duration right before they get up.
Further, this can be quite inconvenient for many users.
Consecutively check the user's heart rate 24 hours using an electronic device to address such issues results in significant battery consumption.
The foregoing also fails to distinguish the user's resting heart rate from those measured for the period.
Accordingly, the foregoing is not a suitable idea for portable electronic devices.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is a wearable electronic device, comprising: a first sensor configured to sense a movement of the electronic device; a second sensor configured to sense a biological signal for a user wearing the electronic device; and a processor configured to compute a movement value of the electronic device using the first sensor, to detect a resting state when the movement value lasts within a predetermined first threshold range during a first time period, and to configure biological information of the user based on a biological signal measured after detection of the resting state.
Description
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This is a Continuation application of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 14 / 974,708 filed on Dec. 18, 2015 which claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(a) of a Korean patent application filed in the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Feb. 27, 2015 and assigned Serial No. 10-2015-0028418, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present disclosure relates to wearable electronic devices for measuring biological signals.DISCUSSION OF RELATED ART[0003]Electronic devices may carry out various functions in an integrated manner. For example, smartphones or other portable terminals are advancing to allow users more convenience with better performance. Wearable electronic devices recently developed are a sort of electronic devices with shapes such as wristwatches, headsets, or glasses that may be put on user's body. As such, electronic devices nowadays go beyond their own unique functionalities...
