US Patent 10579175 Electronic device and method for controlling of the same

An electronic device including a touch screen including a fingerprint sensing region overlapped with a touch sensing region and configured to sense a fingerprint input on the fingerprint sensing region with a second sensing resolution higher than a first sensing resolution of a touch input on the touch sensing region, and a controller configured to display a fingerprint image in the fingerprint sensing region of the touch screen, in response to an event requiring an authentication procedure, sense a fingerprint of a fingerprint touch applied to the fingerprint image, perform the authentication procedure based on the sensed fingerprint, display at least one function icon adjacent to the fingerprint image based on a result of the authentication procedure, and execute a function corresponding to the at least one function icon based on a touch applied to the at least one function icon.
