Abstract
A wearable electronic device, according to one embodiment, may comprise: a display; a camera; at least one processor comprising a processing circuit; and a memory storing instructions. The instructions, when executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, may instruct the wearable electronic device to, on the basis of an image acquired through the camera, recognize a first real signboard located in a field-of-view area of the camera. The instructions, when executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, may further instruct the wearable electronic device to generate a first virtual signboard corresponding to the recognized first real signboard. The location and size of the first virtual signboard may correspond to the location and size of the first real signboard. The instructions, when executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, may instruct the wearable electronic device to rotate the generated first virtual signboard so that the angle between the wearable electronic device and the first virtual signboard is smaller than or equal to a specified angle. The instructions, when executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, may instruct the wearable electronic device to display the rotated first virtual signboard through the display.
