Original Abstract Submitted
in an electronic device according to an embodiment, the electronic device may include: an actuator configured to move the electronic device, a sensor, a projection assembly including light emitting circuitry, at least one processor, and a memory storing instructions. the instructions, when executed by one or more of the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to, in response to an input for playing a media content stored in the memory, identify an external object included in the media content. the instructions, when executed by one or more of the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to, in a first state in which an external object adjacent to the electronic device is identified, emit a light representing the media content, facing a direction adjacent to the external object, by controlling the projection assembly, based on data of the sensor. the present disclosure relates to a metaverse service for enhancing interconnectivity between a real object and a virtual object. for example, the metaverse service may be provided through a network based on fifth generation (5g) and/or sixth generation (6g).
