1. A wearable device comprising:
a main body;
a force sensor disposed on one surface of the main body and configured to measure a force; and
a processor configured to control the force sensor to measure a first force when the one surface of the main body faces upwards, control the force sensor to measure a second force when the one surface of the main body faces downward, and calibrate the force sensor based on at least one of the measured first force and the measured second force.
