wherein the at least one of the plurality of first images is a high resolution image and the second image is a low resolution image created based on the at least one of the plurality of first images.
2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to scale the at least one of the plurality of first images in order to create the second image.
3. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the processor is configured to adjust a size of the at least one of the plurality of first images or a number of pixels of the at least one of the plurality of first images in order to create the second image.
4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine whether or not at least one of a focal accuracy, a degree of image blur, a brightness, a presence of a face, or a presence of an iris of the second image satisfies the predetermined condition.
5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to, if the image quality of the second image does not satisfy the predetermined condition, perform the image quality inspection on a next frame image of the second image.
6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to, if the image quality of the second image does not satisfy the predetermined condition, provide a user of the electronic device with a guidance using at least one of text information or audio information.
7. The electronic device of claim 1 , further comprising a buffer configured to store the obtained plurality of first images.
8. The electronic device of claim 1 , further comprising a display configured to display the created second image.
9. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the sensor obtains the plurality of first images through an infrared sensor.
10. A method for recognizing an iris in an electronic device, the method comprising:
obtaining a plurality of first images through a sensor;
processing at least one of the plurality of first images to create a second image;
performing image quality inspection based on the second image; and
performing, if the image quality of the second image satisfies a predetermined condition, iris recognition based on the at least one of the plurality of first images,
wherein the at least one of the plurality of first images is a high resolution image and the second image is a low resolution image created based on the at least one of the plurality of first images.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein processing the at least one of the plurality of first images comprises scaling the at least one of the plurality of first images.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein scaling the at least one of the plurality of first images comprises adjusting a size of the at least one of the plurality of first images or a number of pixels of the at least one of the plurality of first images in order to create the second image.
13. The method of claim 10 , wherein performing the image quality inspection comprises determining whether or not at least one of a focal accuracy, a degree of image blur, a brightness, a presence of a face, or a presence of an iris of the second image satisfies the predetermined condition.
14. The method of claim 10 , further comprising, if an image quality of the second image does not satisfy the predetermined condition, performing the image quality inspection on a next frame image of the second image.
15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising, if the image quality of the second image does not satisfy the predetermined condition, providing a user of the electronic device with a guidance by using at least one of text information or audio information.
16. The method of claim 10 , further comprising storing the obtained plurality of first images in a buffer.
17. The method of claim 10 , further comprising displaying the created second image on a display.
