The inner case (231) is, for example, a case configured to face the user's body or to come into direct contact with the user's body, and may be made of a material having low thermal conductivity, for example, a synthetic resin. According to one embodiment, the inner case (231) may include an inner side (e.g., an inner side (231c) of FIG. 2) that faces the user's body. The outer case (233) may include, for example, a material capable of at least partially transmitting heat (e.g., a metal material) and may be coupled to face the inner case (231). According to one embodiment, the outer case (233) may include an outer side (e.g., an outer side (231d) of FIG. 2) that is opposite the inner side (231c). In one embodiment, at least one of the circuit board (241) or the speaker module (245) may be accommodated in a space separated from the battery (243) within the wearable member (203). In the illustrated embodiment, the inner case (231) may include a first case (231a) including the circuit board (241) or the speaker module (245) and a second case (231b) accommodating the battery (243), and the outer case (233) may include a third case (233a) coupled to face the first case (231a) and a fourth case (233b) coupled to face the second case (231b).

[0071] The wearable device (200) according to various embodiments of the present document can identify whether the user (210) is wearing the wearable device (100) through a proximity sensor included in the wearable device (200). Alternatively, the wearable device (200) according to various embodiments of the present document can determine whether the wearable device (200) is worn by the user (210) based on whether the frame of the wearable device (200) is unfolded (e.g., unfolded state) and whether proximity of the user (210) is detected while the frame of the wearable device (200) is unfolded, through an angle sensor provided in a hinge portion of the wearable device (200). FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 are drawings showing the front and back of a wearable device (200) according to one embodiment. Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, in one embodiment, camera modules (311, 312, 313, 314, 315, 316) and / or depth sensors (317) for obtaining information related to the surrounding environment of the wearable device (200) may be arranged on the first surface (310) of the housing. In one embodiment, the camera modules (311, 312) can acquire images related to the environment surrounding the wearable electronic device. In one embodiment, the camera modules (313, 314, 315, 316) can acquire images while the wearable electronic device is worn by a user. The images acquired through the camera modules (313, 314, 315, 316) can be used for simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), 6 degrees of freedom (6DoF), 3 degrees of freedom (3DoF), object recognition, and / or tracking, and can recognize and / or track the user's hand and use it as input for the wearable electronic device. In one embodiment, the depth sensor (317) may be configured to transmit a signal and receive a signal reflected from a subject, and may be used for purposes such as determining the distance to an object, such as time of flight (TOF). According to one embodiment, a camera module (325, 326) for facial recognition and / or a display (321) (and / or a lens) may be disposed on the second side (320) of the housing. In one embodiment, a face recognition camera module (325, 326) adjacent to the display may be used to recognize a user's face, or may recognize and / or track both eyes of the user. In one embodiment, the display (321) (and / or lens) may be disposed on the second side (320) of the wearable device (200). In one embodiment, the wearable device (200) may not include camera modules (315, 316) among the plurality of camera modules (313, 314, 315, 316). Although not illustrated in FIGS. 3A and 3B , the wearable device (200) may further include at least one of the configurations illustrated in FIG. 2 . As described above, according to one embodiment, the wearable device (200) may have a form factor for being worn on a user's head. The wearable device (200) may further include a strap for being fixed on a body part of the user, and / or a wearing member (e.g., a wearing member (203)). The wearable device (200) may provide a user experience based on augmented reality, virtual reality, and / or mixed reality while being worn on the user's head. Meanwhile, according to one embodiment, a wearable device (200) can block external light while worn on a user's head, and can cause pupil dilation or constriction by adjusting the color (and / or brightness) of the display (321) (and / or lens). The invention according to the disclosure can utilize the characteristic that the degree of pupillary reflection varies for each user in iris authentication and / or a preliminary process for iris authentication. Figure 7 shows the user's pupil constriction and pupil dilation according to screen brightness, and Figure 8 shows the degree of pupil dilation according to individual and left and right eyes. Normally, the size of a human pupil ranges from 2 to 8 mm. In a dark place (5 lux), the average pupil size increases to about 8 mm on average, and in a bright place (1200 lux, outdoors), the average minimum pupil size becomes about 2 to 4 mm. In addition, depending on the brightness environment, different pupillary reflexes occur for each individual, and the maximum and minimum sizes of the pupils operate differently for each individual. Referring to Figure 7, the pupil constricts in bright light, and as the pupil constricts, the size of the pupil area decreases. At this time, as the pupil area decreases, the size of the iris area increases. Conversely, the pupil dilates in dark light, and as the pupil dilates, the size of the pupil area increases. At this time, as the pupil area increases, the size of the iris area decreases. In general, iris authentication is performed by recognizing a unique pattern included in an iris region excluding the pupil region, but in the present disclosure, iris authentication can be performed based on the ratio between the size of the pupil region and the size of the iris region in addition to the unique pattern of the iris region. The degree to which the pupil constricts or dilates varies from person to person, and even in the same person, the degree to which the pupil constricts or dilates may differ depending on whether it is the left or right eye. Figure 8 illustrates the pupil size ratios for the left and right eyes of the first and second users, respectively, by color. For the first user, pupils of different colors (and / or brightnesses) have different pupil size ratios, and even for the same color, the pupil size ratios may differ depending on whether the left or right eye is used. Furthermore, for the same color, the first and second users may have different pupil size ratios. Meanwhile, the following describes various embodiments of iris authentication or iris preliminary authentication using the characteristics of pupil dilation and contraction for each individual and / or left and right eyes. FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating an operation method in an iris registration mode of a wearable device according to one embodiment. FIG. 10 illustrates a first screen of a wearable device according to one embodiment. FIG. 11 illustrates a second screen of a wearable device according to one embodiment. FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating the distinction between a pupil region and an iris region in an eye image. FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating the area of a pupil region and an iris region. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) can detect that the user is wearing the wearable device (200) (901). For example, the processor (120) can identify whether the user is wearing the wearable device (200) through a proximity sensor included in the wearable device (200). In addition, the wearable device (200) can determine whether the wearable device (200) is being worn by the user based on whether the frame of the wearable device (200) is unfolded (e.g., unfolded) and whether proximity of the user is detected while the frame of the wearable device (200) is unfolded, through an angle sensor provided in the hinge portion of the wearable device (200). According to one embodiment, when the processor (120) detects that the user is wearing the wearable device (200), it can execute an iris registration mode (903) and output a first screen based on a first color while the iris registration mode is executed (905). According to one embodiment, the iris registration mode can be executed automatically before an iris template for iris authentication is stored in the wearable device (200), or can be executed manually by the user through an operation on the wearable device (200). Referring to FIG. 10, the first screen (1000) output initially in the iris registration mode may include a background screen of a black series (e.g., color code - 0x222222). The display (321 of FIG. 6) (and / or lens) may output a UI and a message that causes the user to look at the camera (the first camera module (251) of FIG. 3) along with the background screen having the first color. According to one embodiment, the camera may acquire the user's first eye image while outputting the first screen. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) can obtain the area of the first pupil region based on the first eye image (907) and obtain the area of the first iris region based on the first eye image (909). The processor (120) can distinguish between the pupil region and the iris region through a pupil detection algorithm stored in the memory (130). Referring to FIG. 12, a processor (120) according to one embodiment sets an area including an iris and a pupil in an eye image as a region of interest (ROI), and can distinguish between a pupil area (P) and an iris area (I). Once the pupil area (P) and the iris area (I) are distinguished, a common center point can be detected, and the radius of the pupil area (P) and the radius of the iris area (I) can be confirmed. Referring to FIG. 13, a processor (120) according to one embodiment can calculate an area of a pupil region (SP = 3.14 * (radius of the pupil region)^2) based on a radius of a pupil region (P). A processor (120) according to one embodiment can calculate an area of an iris region (SI = 3.14 * (radius of the iris region)^2) based on a radius of an iris region (I). According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may store first ratio information on the first screen (911). The first ratio information may reflect the user's pupil reflection characteristics based on the first color output from the first screen. That is, the first ratio information refers to the ratio of the area (SP) of the first pupil area and the area (SI) of the first iris area when the user's eye reacts to the first color. The first ratio information may be information on either the user's left eye or right eye, or may include ratio information for the left eye and the right eye, respectively. When the first ratio information includes ratio information for both the left eye and the right eye, the camera according to one embodiment may acquire the left eye image and the right eye image simultaneously, or may acquire the left eye image and the right eye image at different times by repeating operations 905 to 911. In addition, when acquiring the left eye image and the right eye image at different times, the background color when acquiring the left eye image may be set differently from the background color when acquiring the right eye image. According to one embodiment, after storing the first ratio information, the processor (120) may output a second screen based on the second color (913). According to one embodiment, after storing the first ratio information, the processor (120) may control the display (321 of FIG. 6) (and / or the lens) to switch from the first screen to the second screen. Meanwhile, the first screen and the second screen may have different colors as well as different brightness and / or saturation. For example, the first screen may have a lower brightness value than the second screen, or the first screen may have a higher saturation value than the second screen. Referring to FIG. 11, the second screen (1100) may include a background screen in a gray color series (e.g., color code - 0xDDDDDD). The display (321 of FIG. 6) (and / or the lens) may output a UI and message that directs the user to look at the camera (the first camera module (251) of FIG. 3) along with the background screen having the second color. In one embodiment, the camera may acquire a second eye image of the user while outputting the second screen. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may obtain the area of the second pupil region based on the second eye image (915) and obtain the area of the second iris region based on the second eye image (917). At this time, since the second screen outputs a background screen with a relatively brighter color than the first screen, the area of the second pupil region may have a smaller value than the area of the first pupil region. The processor (120) may distinguish between the pupil region and the iris region through a pupil detection algorithm stored in the memory (130). According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may store second ratio information on the second screen (919). The second ratio information may reflect the user's pupillary reflection characteristics based on the second color output from the second screen. That is, the second ratio information refers to the ratio of the area of the second pupil area (SP) to the area of the second iris area (SI) when the user's eye reacts to the second color. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may store a first iris template and a second iris template in the memory (130) together with the first ratio information and the second ratio information (923). The iris template refers to an iris code stored for iris authentication after the iris registration process. The first iris template is an iris code in an iris area that reacts to a first color, and the second iris template corresponds to an iris code in an iris area that reacts to a second color. Since a relatively large pupil dilation occurs when the first color is used and the area of the iris area is smaller, the iris code of the first iris template has smaller data than the iris code of the second iris template. Meanwhile, additionally, the processor (120) according to one embodiment may store the second iris template and the second ratio information, and change the color of the screen of the display (321 of FIG. 6) to the Nth color (Nth screen) to additionally store the Nth ratio information and the Nth iris template (921). Meanwhile, the above described iris registration mode in which the user's pupil stores first ratio information and a first iris template when reacting to a first color, and second ratio information and a second iris template when reacting to a second color different from the first color. Hereinafter, a process for performing iris preliminary authentication and / or iris authentication based on the stored first ratio information, first iris template, second ratio information, and second iris template is described. FIG. 14 is a flowchart of an operation method in a first preliminary authentication process of a wearable device according to one embodiment. Each operation of FIG. 14 may be performed after the iris registration process according to FIG. 9 is fully performed. Accordingly, the operation of FIG. 14 may be performed only after at least one of the first ratio information / first iris template or the second ratio information / second iris template is stored in the memory (130), and when at least one of the first ratio information / first iris template or the second ratio information / second iris template is not stored in the memory (130), operation 901 of FIG. 9 may be executed. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) can detect that the user is wearing the wearable device (200) (1401). For example, the processor (120) can identify whether the user is wearing the wearable device (200) through a proximity sensor included in the wearable device (200). In addition, the wearable device (200) can determine whether the wearable device (200) is worn by the user through an angle sensor provided in a hinge portion of the wearable device (200) based on whether the frame of the wearable device (200) is unfolded (e.g., unfolded state) and whether proximity of the user is detected while the frame of the wearable device (200) is unfolded. According to one embodiment, when the processor (120) detects that the user is wearing the wearable device (200), it may output a first screen based on a first color (1403). The first screen may be a screen for iris authentication or iris preliminary authentication, and may be distinct from the operation 903 of FIG. 9 for iris registration, but may also be the same as the first color-based screen used in operation 905 of FIG. 9. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) can control a camera module (the first camera module (251) of FIG. 3) to acquire an image of the user's eye (1405). The image of the eye can include at least one of a left eye image or a right eye image of the user. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) can obtain first ratio information through the acquired eye image (1407). The process of obtaining the first ratio information may refer to operations 907 to 911 of FIG. 9. According to one embodiment, when the processor (120) obtains first ratio information through the user's eye image, it can check whether the difference (hereinafter, difference value) between the first ratio information stored in the memory (130) and the first ratio information obtained in operation 1407 is greater than or less than a threshold value (1409). According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may execute the iris authentication mode if the difference value is less than the threshold value (1411). Here, the difference value being less than the threshold value means that the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) due to the first color is substantially the same as the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) based on the registered iris information, and thus the user attempting authentication and the registered user are the same. Therefore, the processor (120) according to one embodiment may execute the iris authentication mode if the difference value is less than the threshold value (1411). The processor (120) according to one embodiment may perform iris authentication while maintaining the first color as it is in order to execute the iris authentication mode (A-> 1501 of FIG. 15). In addition, the processor (120) according to one embodiment may perform iris authentication while converting the first color to the second color in order to execute the iris authentication mode (A-> 1601 of FIG. 16). According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may not execute the iris authentication mode if the difference value is greater than the threshold value (operation 1609 of FIG. 16). Here, the difference value being greater than the threshold value means that the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) by the first color is different from the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) based on the registered iris information, and thus there is a mismatch between the user attempting authentication and the registered user. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may switch the state of the display (321 in FIG. 6) from a black state to a disabled state so that the iris authentication mode is not executed when the difference value is greater than the threshold value. Here, the black state is a state in which the DDI driving current and the panel driving current of the display are on and the light-emitting element current of the display is off, and the disabled state is a state in which the DDI driving current of the display is on and the panel driving current and the light-emitting element current of the display are off. In the present embodiment, the wearable device (200) does not perform iris authentication immediately when the user wears the wearable device (200), but performs iris authentication through preliminary authentication, thereby reducing battery consumption due to iris authentication. Conversely, when the iris authentication mode is executed, the display (321 in FIG. 6) may switch the DDI driving current, the panel driving current, and the light-emitting element current of the display to all on. Fig. 15 is a flowchart of an operation method in an iris authentication process of a wearable device according to one embodiment. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may perform normalization (1501) on an iris image (eye image) acquired through a camera module (the first camera module (251) of FIG. 3). For example, the processor (120) may generate a pattern included in the iris image in polar coordinates and convert it from polar coordinates to orthogonal coordinates. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) can perform iris feature extraction from an iris image (1503). The processor (120) can extract key features by analyzing a unique pattern included in the iris. For example, the processor (120) can extract iris feature points by applying a Gabor Wavelets Filter to an iris image that has undergone normalization. The Gabor Wavelets Filter is a feature point extraction method through spatial-frequency analysis, and is a method of extracting features of an iris pattern by utilizing changes in iris brightness (0 if negative, 1 if positive). According to one embodiment, the processor (120) can perform iris matching. For example, the processor (120) can perform iris matching by comparing the first iris code acquired in operation 1503 with the second iris code of the iris template stored in the memory (130) during iris registration (1505). The processor (120) can determine whether the first iris code and the second iris code are the same by using the Hamming distance or the Euclidean distance between them. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may complete iris authentication through operation 1505 (1507). The processor (120) may cause the authentication system of the wearable device (200) to notify the user of whether the authentication was successful or failed. FIG. 16 is a flowchart of an operation method in a secondary preliminary authentication process of a wearable device according to one embodiment. Looking back at the iris registration process of FIG. 8, the wearable device (200) according to one embodiment can store first ratio information and a first iris template in a first screen based on a first color and second ratio information and a second iris template in a second screen based on a second color in the memory (130). That is, the wearable device (200) can perform iris authentication without performing iris authentication that compares iris patterns by taking advantage of the fact that the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) is different depending on the color (or brightness), or can increase the security of iris authentication by additionally checking the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) before identifying the iris pattern. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may output a second screen based on a second color (1601). The second screen may be a screen for iris preliminary authentication and may be distinguished from operation 913 of FIG. 9 for iris registration. The second screen may have a background color (or brightness) different from that of the first screen. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) can control a camera module (the first camera module (251) of FIG. 3) to acquire an eye image of the user (1603). The eye image can include at least one of a left eye image or a right eye image of the user. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may obtain second ratio information through the user's eye image (1605). The process of obtaining the second ratio information may refer to operations 915 to 919 of FIG. 9. According to one embodiment, when the processor (120) obtains second ratio information through the user's eye image, it can check whether the difference (hereinafter, difference value) between the second ratio information stored in the memory (130) and the second ratio information obtained in operation 1605 is greater than or less than a threshold value (1607). According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may execute the iris authentication mode (1611) if the difference value is less than the threshold value. Here, the difference value being less than the threshold value means that the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) by the second color is substantially the same as the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) based on the registered iris information, so that the user attempting authentication is the same as the registered user. It should be noted here that the user has first passed the verification for the first ratio information and then passed the verification for the second ratio information. If the iris authentication mode is executed after additionally performing the verification for the second ratio information, it can have higher security than the existing iris authentication process that only performs iris authentication. Additionally, according to one embodiment, the processor (120) may process iris authentication as complete if the difference value is less than a threshold value. That is, in the present embodiment, user authentication can be completed without comparing iris patterns. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may not execute the iris authentication mode if the difference value is greater than the threshold value (1609). Here, the difference value being greater than the threshold value means that the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) by the first color is different from the degree of pupil dilation (or constriction) based on the registered iris information, and thus there is a mismatch between the user attempting authentication and the registered user. According to one embodiment, the processor (120) may not execute the iris authentication mode if the difference value is greater than the threshold value based on the first ratio information, or may not execute the iris authentication mode if the preliminary authentication based on the second ratio information does not pass after the preliminary authentication based on the first ratio information passes. According to one embodiment, if the difference between the second ratio information stored in the memory and the second ratio information is greater than the threshold value, the processor (120) may notify that the iris authentication has failed and terminate the second screen so that the display module is deactivated (the iris authentication mode is not executed).
