Abstract

An electronic apparatus for recognizing a user and a method therefor are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a communication interface, a dynamic vision sensor (DVS), a memory including a database in which one or more images are stored, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to generate an image, in which a shape of an object is included, based on an event detected through the DVS, control the memory to store a plurality of images generated under a specified condition, in the database, identify shapes of the user included in each of the plurality of images stored in the database, and generate shape information for recognizing the user based on the identified shapes. The plurality of images may include a shape of a user.
