Abstract

An electronic apparatus includes a memory that stores a specified criterion for classifying a type of a touch region according to an assigned function, and a processor that classifies at least one touch region as belonging to a palm region for assigning a first function or to a pen region for assigning a second function based on the specified criterion if a touch to a touch panel is detected, issues an individual identifier (ID) for the pen region, and issues a group ID after performing grouping for the palm region.
