Abstract

An electronic apparatus includes an interface configured to connect with an external apparatus, and a processor. The processor is configured to, in response to a first user speech received by the electronic apparatus including a trigger word, identify a first noise level corresponding to the first user speech received by the electronic apparatus. The processor is configured to identify a first recognition apparatus among a plurality of recognition apparatuses having a highest first noise level corresponding to the first user speech. The plurality of recognition apparatuses identify the first user speech as the trigger word and include the electronic apparatus and the external apparatus. The processor is configured to perform a control operation to implement a function corresponding to a second user speech in response to identifying a second recognition apparatus as having a highest second noise level corresponding to the second user speech among the plurality of recognition apparatuses.
