Abstract
A method and electronic device capable of improving image quality of an object for identification of a companion animal is proposed. The method for photographing the object for the identification of the companion animal includes obtaining an image including the companion animal, detecting the object for the identification of the companion animal from the image, and photographing a next image in a state in which a focus is set to a location of the detected object. The method and electronic device ensures that the object for the identification of the companion animal is detected in the photographed image and the focus is continuously placed on the location of the corresponding object, so that the image of the object for the identification having sharper quality is obtained, whereby images of the objects for the identification of the companion animals and usable for artificial intelligence-based learning or identification may be accumulated.
