1. An electronic device comprising:
a display;
a camera;
ultra-wideband (UWB) communication circuitry supporting UWB communication;
at least one processor including processing circuitry; and
memory comprising one or more storage media storing instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor individually or collectively, cause the electronic device to:
identify radar response information related to a radar reflection signal received through the UWB communication circuitry,
identify, based on the identified radar response information, a presence of at least one alive object in a first image captured by the camera,
adjust autofocusing of the camera based on the presence of the at least one alive object and a result of face recognition for the at least one alive object in the first image, and
display a second image captured through the adjusted autofocusing by the camera on the display.
