1. An electronic device, comprising:
a lens;
a physical button;
a distance sensor;
an occlusion component; and
a control circuit, coupled to the physical button, the distance sensor and the occlusion component, wherein the control circuit is configured to:
in a first status of the electronic device, control the occlusion component to be located at a first position on the electronic device to occlude the lens;
in a second status of the electronic device, detect a trigger signal generated by triggering the physical button and detect a target object in front of the lens through the distance sensor, wherein the first status is different from the second status; and
in a situation where the trigger signal is detected and the target object exists, control the occlusion component to move to a second position on the electronic device to expose the lens.
