1. An electronic device comprising:
a frame;
a transparent member supported by the frame;
a leg member rotatably connected to the frame;
a display module configured to project an image onto the transparent member;
a camera disposed on at least one of the frame and the leg member;
a light emitter configured to emit infrared light toward a user's eye positioned behind the frame;
a lens member configured to switch between a reflective mode reflecting infrared light and a transmissive mode allowing visible light to pass, and disposed such that infrared light reflected from the user's eye to the lens member in the reflective mode is incident on the camera; and
a processor operatively connected to the display module and the camera.
wherein the processor is configured to control the camera to receive visible light, which passes through the lens member in the transmissive mode, in order to generate first image information, and to receive infrared light, which is reflected by the lens member in the reflective mode, in order to generate second image information.
