  • This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18210465 Titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR RECOGNIZING COVER DEVICE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device that has a magnetic sensor and a communication module. The device also has a processor that is connected to the magnetic sensor and the communication module. The processor is programmed to detect a magnetic signal through the magnetic sensor and determine if the signal is generated by attaching a cover device to the electronic device. If it is determined that the signal is from the cover device, the processor will correct the sensor data from the magnetic sensor.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device includes: a magnetic sensor; a communication module; at least one processor operatively connected with the magnetic sensor and the communication module. The at least one processor is configured to: identify that a magnetic signal is detected through the magnetic sensor; identify, based on a magnitude of the detected magnetic signal, whether the magnetic signal is generated by coupling the electronic device with a cover device; and based on identifying that the magnetic signal is generated by coupling the electronic device with the cover device, correct sensor data of the magnetic sensor.
