Abstract

According to various embodiments of the present invention, an electronic device can comprise: a light source configured to allow light, excluding a visible light band, to be incident on a designated pattern; a memory for storing designated pattern information; a camera configured to receive the light, which is incident from the light source and reflected by an external object; and a processor. The processor can be configured to: acquire a first image on an external object by using a camera, wherein the first image includes a pattern formed when the designated pattern is deformed by a curve of the surface of the external object; extract deformed pattern information from the first image by using the first image and the designated pattern information; and generate a second image from which the pattern deformed in the first image has been removed, by using the first image and the extracted deformed pattern information. Additional various embodiments are possible.
