The cameras (280) may be positioned so that the angle formed by the second direction (382) and the third direction (383) and the angle formed by the first direction (381) and the third direction (383) are substantially the same as the angle (320). The arrangement of the cameras (280) shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is an example, and the first device (201) may include more or fewer than three cameras. For example, the first device (201) may further include a camera positioned to capture an image toward the surface where the upper cover (302) is positioned.

[0060] In one embodiment, the first magnet (420) may be placed on one side of the lower case (301). The first device (201) may be attached to another device (e.g., the second device (602) of FIGS. 6 to 8, and the third device (1101, 1102, 1103) of FIGS. 11 to 13) by the magnetic field generated by the first magnet (420). The lower case (301) may be composed of a material that does not shield the magnetic field on at least one side. For example, the lower case (301) may be composed of a plastic material on at least one side, but is not limited thereto. Referring to FIG. 4, the first magnet (420) may have a polygonal plate formed corresponding to the number of cameras (280) for efficient space utilization. However, the shape of the first magnet (420) is not limited thereto.

[0061] In one embodiment, a plurality of cameras (280) may be connected to a first circuit board (400). Electronic components (e.g., at least one first processor, a first memory for storing computer programs, or a first short-range communication module) may be disposed on the first circuit board (400). In FIG. 4, the first circuit board (400) is shown as a single configuration, but it may be composed of a plurality of separate circuit boards.

[0062] In one embodiment, the first device (201) may include a battery (289) (e.g., the battery (189) of FIG. 1) and a bracket (310) on which the battery (289) is placed. Referring to FIG. 4, the bracket (310) may include a first surface (311), a second surface (312), and a third surface (313). The first surface (311) may be placed on the opposite side of the first direction (381) with respect to the first camera (281). The second surface (312) may be placed on the opposite side of the second direction (382) with respect to the second camera (282). The third surface (313) may be placed on the opposite side of the third direction (383) with respect to the third camera (283). The battery (289) may be placed to have a shape corresponding to the arrangement of the cameras (280) for space efficiency. Referring to FIG. 4, the battery (289) may have a triangular shape corresponding to the first surface (311), the second surface (312), and the third surface (313). The battery (289) may supply power to the components of the first device (201) or be charged using power received from an external source.

[0063] FIG. 5 illustrates an example of a first device (201) according to one embodiment being worn on the body of a user (1).

[0064] In one embodiment, the first device (201) may include a device wearable on the body of a user (1). While worn on the body of the user (1), the first device (201) may collect information about at least one of the user (1) or the surrounding environment from an image captured through at least one of the cameras (280). The first device (201) may collect user interest information that the user is interested in. For example, the first device (201) may acquire at least one image captured through at least one camera. The first device (201) may identify the direction of the user's gaze from at least one image. For example, the first device (201) may determine the direction of the user's gaze based on the direction of the user's chin included in at least one image. The first device (201) may collect information related to the direction of the user's gaze. For example, the first device (201) may collect information related to the image of the area corresponding to the direction of the user's gaze among the images captured through at least one camera. Alternatively, for example, the first device (201) may collect information regarding an object located in the direction of the user's gaze from the location of the first device (201) based on the location information of the first device (201). The first device (201) may collect information related to the direction of the user's gaze as user interest information. Referring to FIG. 5, since the position of the first device (201) changes whenever it acts on the body of the user (1), a reference coordinate may be set using a sensor (e.g., at least one of a gyroscope sensor or an accelerometer sensor), and the user's direction of gaze and user interest information may be obtained based on a coordinate system based on the set reference coordinate.

[0065] In one embodiment, the first device (201) may include additional input devices in addition to a plurality of cameras (280). For example, the first device (201) may further include a microphone that converts received sound into an electrical signal. The first device (201) may collect ambient auditory information through the microphone. The first device (201) may further include at least one output device for outputting information. For example, the first device (201) may further include a speaker that outputs sound. When the first device (201) is worn on the user's body, the electronic device (101) including the first device (201) may receive the user's voice signal and output a response corresponding to the user's voice. The response corresponding to the user's voice may include information generated by an artificial intelligence model. For example, when the first device (201) is worn on the user's body, the electronic device (101) may provide a conversation service such as the following.

[0066] - User: It's been a while since I came downtown, so there are really a lot of people.

[0067] - Electronic Device: It looks like there are a lot of tourists!

[0068] - User: I'm getting hungry from walking.

[0069] - Electronic Device: You said you wanted to eat a hamburger a while ago, right? Shall I find a hamburger place for you?

[0070] - User: Is there a good burger place nearby?

[0071] - Electronic device: If you look to the left, you will see a hamburger shop.

[0072] - User: You're really versatile!

[0073] - Electronic Device: It's nothing. Oops! Watch out for the car behind you!

[0074] In one embodiment, the first device (201) can determine object location information indicating the location of an object based on an artificial intelligence model. For example, in relation to the conversation, the first device (201) can obtain "location information of a hamburger shop" by searching for surrounding information based on the location information of the first device (201). For example, in relation to the conversation, the first device (201) may determine location information regarding a vehicle approaching at a speed greater than a specified speed from at least one image captured through at least one camera. The first device (201) can determine whether the hamburger shop is to the left of the user's gaze direction or whether the vehicle is in the opposite direction of the user's gaze direction based on the result of comparing information about the gaze direction and object location information. The first device (201) can output a voice generated based on the result of comparing information about the gaze direction and object location information through a speaker. The operation of determining object location information by executing an artificial intelligence model and generating information based on the comparison result between the information regarding the line of sight direction and the object location information may be performed by an external electronic device (e.g., a smartphone) connected to the first device (201) via short-range wireless communication. For example, the first device (201) transmits at least one of at least one image or voice signal to the external electronic device, and the external electronic device may execute an artificial intelligence model based on at least one of at least one image or voice signal. The external electronic device may transmit a voice signal generated based on the result of executing the artificial intelligence model to the first device (201). The first device (201) may receive feedback on the output information from the user (1). Based on the feedback, the first device (201) may collect surrounding information again or perform a processing process on the collected information.

[0075] FIG. 6 is a perspective view illustrating a second device (602) included in an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1) according to one embodiment.

[0076] Referring to FIG. 6, in one embodiment, the second device (602) may include a first mounting portion (610) and at least one output device. Referring to FIG. 7, the first mounting portion (610) may include an upper cover (701), a lower case (702), and a second magnet (710) disposed between the upper cover (701) and the lower case (702). The polarity of the second magnet (710) may be aligned so that the first device (201) is mounted at a designated position by the attractive force generated between the first magnet (420) of the first device (201) and the second magnet (710). In FIGS. 4 and 7, the first magnet (420) and the second magnet (710) are each depicted as a single configuration, but the first magnet (420) and the second magnet (710) may each be composed of multiple magnets spaced apart from each other so that the first device (201) is seated in a designated position at the designated location of the first seating portion (610).

[0077] In one embodiment, the second device (602) may further include a wireless power transmission coil (720) disposed at the bottom of the upper cover (701). The first device (201) may include a wireless power receiving coil for receiving wireless power. The second device (602) may transmit wireless power to the wireless power receiving coil of the first device through the wireless power transmission coil (720) while the first device (201) is seated on the first mounting portion (610).

[0078] In one embodiment, the second device (602) may further include a second circuit board (730). Electronic components (e.g., at least one second processor, a second memory for storing computer programs, or a second short-range wireless communication module) may be disposed on the second circuit board (730). In FIG. 7, the second circuit board (730) is shown as a single configuration, but it may be composed of multiple separate circuit boards.

[0079] In one embodiment, at least one output device of the second device (602) may include a display (620). The display (620) may include at least one of a transparent display through which light can be transmitted or a display that can adjust transparency. Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, in one embodiment, the second device (602) may be configured in a cylindrical shape. The cylindrical shape of the second device (602) may include a curved portion forming the side of the device, a first end portion formed at one end of the curved portion, and a second end portion formed at the other end of the curved portion. A first seating portion (610) may be formed at the first end portion. A display (620) may be disposed on the curved portion. The curved portion may include a first portion (741) in which the display (620) is disposed so as to have a curvature corresponding to the outer circumference of the curved portion, and a second portion (742) formed between one end (621) and the other end (622) of the display (620). However, the shape in which the display (620) is arranged is not limited to the examples shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. For example, the display (620) may be arranged in a form where one end (621) and the other end (622) are in contact without the second part (742). The first device (201) may also include a display, but the display (620) of the second device (602) may be configured to output a screen having a larger area than the display of the first device (201). The display (620) may be configured to display a three-dimensional image.

[0080] In one embodiment, at least one output device of the second device (602) may further include a speaker (630). If the second device (602) includes a speaker (630), the speaker (630) may be configured to output sound at a higher output than the speaker of the first device (201).

[0081] FIG. 8 is a front view illustrating a first device (201) and a second device (602) according to one embodiment.

[0082] Referring to FIG. 8, the first device (201) may be seated on the mounting portion (610) of the second device (602). At least one of the first device (201) or the second device (602) may detect whether the first device (201) is seated on the mounting portion (610). For example, the first device (201) may determine whether it is seated on the mounting portion (610) based on the reception of a wireless power signal transmitted through a wireless power transmission coil (720). For example, the first device (201) may determine whether it is seated on the mounting portion (610) by detecting a magnetic field generated by the second magnet (710) using a Hall sensor. However, the method by which at least one of the first device (201) or the second device (602) detects the seated state of the first device (201) is not limited to the examples described above. For example, at least one of the first device (201) or the second device (602) may further include a separate component for detecting the seating state of the first device (201).

[0083] According to one embodiment, when the first device (201) is seated on the mounting portion (610), the first device (201) can establish a communication connection with the second device (602). For example, the first device (201) can perform short-range wireless communication with the second device (602). For example, the first device (201) may be connected to the second device (602) through a connector capable of transmitting and receiving signals.

[0084] According to one embodiment, when the first device (201) is mounted on the mounting portion (610), the first device (201) may output information determined based on user interest information through at least one output device of the second device (602). The information determined based on user interest information may include information generated by processing user interest information using an artificial intelligence model. For example, based on identifying that the first device (201) is mounted on the mounting portion (610), the first device (201) may output information obtained by processing information collected while the first device (201) is worn on the user's body through an artificial intelligence model through at least one output device of the second device (602). The first device (201) may transmit the collected information to an external electronic device (e.g., a smartphone) and receive from the external electronic device the result of the external electronic device executing the artificial intelligence model to process the collected information. However, it is not limited thereto. At least one first processor included in the first device (201) may execute the artificial intelligence model.

[0085] In one embodiment, the first device (201) may operate based on a first operation mode when worn on the user's body as shown in FIG. 5, and may operate based on a second operation mode different from the first operation mode when coupled to the second device (602) as shown in FIG. 8. For example, when operating based on the first operation mode, the first device (201) may output information generated through an artificial intelligence model through a speaker included in the first device (201). When operating based on the second operation mode, the first device (201) may identify the user's location using at least one camera and display information generated through an artificial intelligence model in the direction where the user is located through the display (620) of the second device (602). For example, the first device (201) may output information generated through different artificial intelligence models in the first operation mode and the second operation mode. The first device (201) can output information generated through a first artificial intelligence model in a first operation mode and output information generated through a second artificial intelligence model different from the first artificial intelligence model in a second operation mode.

[0086] In one embodiment, based on the detection that it is seated on the seating portion (610), the first device (201) may be separated from the seating portion (610) and provided to the user with information related to user interest information collected while worn on the user's body. For example, the electronic device (101) may provide the following conversation service as the first device (201) is seated on the seating portion (610) of the second device (602).

[0087] - User: It was fun going to the shopping mall today while talking with you.

[0088] - Electronic Device: I'm glad to hear you had fun. Shall I search for the price and reviews of the Traveler shoes you were interested in while shopping earlier and show them to you?

[0089] - User: Okay, thanks.

[0090] In one embodiment, the first device (201) collects information about an object located in the direction of the user's gaze while worn on the user's body, and can provide information related to the collected information as it is placed on the mounting portion (610) of the second device (602). Referring to the example above, if the user's gaze stays on the "traveler shoes" for a specified amount of time or longer, the first device (201) can output video or audio containing information related to the traveler shoes through the second device (602).

[0091] FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a cross-section of a display (620) of a second device (602) according to one embodiment.

[0092] In one embodiment, the display (620) may include a transparent member (910), an optically transparent adhesive layer (920), a flexible display (930), and an inner cover (940). The transparent member (910) may be composed of an optically transparent hard member. For example, the transparent member (910) may be composed of at least one of glass or plastic. One side of the flexible display (930) may be attached to the transparent member (910) by the optically transparent adhesive layer (920). The flexible display (930) may include an inner cover (940) on the opposite side of the side to which the optically transparent adhesive layer (920) is applied.

[0093] FIG. 10 illustrates a method for manufacturing a display of a second device (602) according to one embodiment.

[0094] In one embodiment, the display (620) may include a curved portion having at least a portion of curvature. If the display (620) is manufactured to have curvature, interlayer slip may occur, which may cause delamination. As the diameter of the circle decreases, the amount of slip may increase. While reducing the thickness of the panel constituting the display (620) can reduce the amount of slip, the thickness of the display (620) must be ensured to secure display performance. Therefore, the display (620) can be manufactured through a manufacturing method to resolve interlayer slip. The display (620) can be manufactured through a double lamination method in which a flexible display (930) is laminated on one side of a lamination jig (1010), and a second lamination of a transparent member is performed thereon.

[0095] According to one embodiment, in a first process (1001), a stacking jig (1010) may be prepared. In a second process (1002), a flexible display (930) may be stacked on the stacking jig (1010). In process 1003, an optically transparent adhesive layer (920) may be stacked on the flexible display (930). In process 1004, a transparent member (910) may be placed on the flexible display (930) while the optically transparent adhesive layer (920) is stacked. In process 1005, layers of a display (620) including the transparent member (910) may be stacked on the stacking jig (1010). In process 1006, the display (620) may be manufactured by removing the stacking jig (1010).

The first device (201) can transmit user interest information and user input received through the first input device (1450) to an external device (1400) connected via communication through the first wireless communication module (1490). The first device (201) can receive information obtained from the external device (1400) through the first wireless communication module (1490) by the external device (1400) executing an artificial intelligence model to process user interest information and user input. Alternatively, the first device (201) may have at least one first processor (1420) directly execute an artificial intelligence model to process user interest information and user input. The first device (201) may process user interest information and user input based on information detected through the sensor module (1476). Alternatively, the first device (201) may transmit information detected through the sensor module (1476) to the external device (1400) through the first wireless communication module (1490).

[0106] FIG. 15 is a flowchart (1500) illustrating a process in which an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1) according to one embodiment provides an artificial intelligence service according to a usage state.

[0107] According to one embodiment, in operation 1510, an electronic device including a first device (201) can determine whether the first device (201) is seated on the second device (602). If the first device (201) is detached from the second device (602) and is worn by a user (1510-No), the electronic device can acquire at least one image through at least one camera of the first device (201) in operation 1520.

[0110] According to one embodiment, the electronic device may include a first device (201) and a second device (602). In operation 1610, the first device (201) may collect information related to the user. For example, the first device (201) may obtain at least one image captured through at least one camera (e.g., at least one of the cameras (280) of FIG. 3 and 4) or information obtained from at least one image.

[0111] According to one embodiment, in operation 1620, the first device (201) can detect the user's intention from the information collected in operation 1610. For example, if the first device (201) determines that the user has gazed at the same object for more than a specified amount of time, it can determine that there is a user intention related to the object. If the user's intention is not detected in operation 1620, the electronic device can perform operation 1610 again. If the user's intention is detected in operation 1620, the first device (201) can process the collected information based on the user's intention detected in operation 1630. For example, the first device (201) can process the collected information through an artificial intelligence model. In operation 1635, with the first device (201) mounted on the second device (602), the first device (201) can output the information processed in operation 1630 through the second device (602). For example, the first device (201) can display an image containing information generated through an artificial intelligence model through the display (620) of the second device (602).

[0112] According to one embodiment, in operation 1640, the first device (201) can change the information to be output based on the user's gaze. For example, if the first device (201) identifies an object located in the direction of the user's gaze, the first device (201) can change the information related to the identified object to be output. In operation 1645, with the first device (201) mounted on the second device (602), the first device (201) can output the changed information through the second device (602).

[0113] According to one embodiment, in operation 1650, the first device (201) can determine whether the information output in operation 1635 or operation 1645 is appropriate. For example, the first device (201) can receive feedback (e.g., voice information) from a user and determine whether the information output is appropriate based on the received feedback. Based on the determination that the information output is not appropriate, the first device (201) can perform operation 1630 again. If the information output is determined to be appropriate, the first device (201) can continue the operation to provide artificial intelligence services from operation 1610.
