1. A wearable electronic device comprising: (11) (5)

a main body provided with at least one sensor;

a processor; and

a wearing unit that allows the main body to be worn on a user's body,

wherein the processor is configured to: execute an application for detecting and acquiring a user's biometric signal,

tighten the wearing unit on the user's body, and

detect and acquire the user's biometric signal using the at least one sensor, and

wherein the main body and/or the at least one sensor and/is configured to come in contact with the user's body when the wearing unit is tightened on the user's body.

2. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to release the wearing unit after the detecting and acquiring the user's biometric signal. (0)

3. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the at least one sensor is configured to detect at least one of blood pressure, heart rate variability (HRV), heart rate monitor (HRM), photo plethysmo graph (PPG), sleeping section, skin temperature, heart rate, blood flow, blood sugar, oxygen saturation, pulse wave, and electrocardiogram (ECG). (0)

4. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to execute the application at regular time intervals. (0)

5. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, further comprising: (0) (2)

6. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, further comprising: (0) (2)

7. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to transmit the detected or acquired user's biometric signal through a communication network. (0)

8. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to: (1) (2)

determine whether a value of detected or acquired user's biometric signal exceeds a pre-set value or a recommended threshold, and

output an acoustic alarm or a visual alarm when the value of the detected or acquired user's biometric signal exceeds the pre-set value or the recommended threshold.

9. The wearable electronic device of claim 8, wherein the processor is further configured to: (2) (2)

determine an emergency situation based on the value of the detected or acquired user's biometric signal, and

transmit an aid request signal to at least one of an external electronic device, a medical institute or a first-aid medical center through a communication network according to being determined the emergency situation.

10. The wearable electronic device of claim 9, wherein the aid request signal includes at least one of a user's personal information, a positional information, and the value of the detected or acquired user's biometric signal. (0)

11. The wearable electronic device of claim 9, wherein the processor is further configured to: (0) (2)

12. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to: (1) (4)

determine whether a user exercises using a 6-axis sensor,

execute the application for detecting and acquiring a biometric signal when it is determined that the user exercises,

tighten the wearing unit, and

detect and acquire the user's biometric signal using the at least one sensor.

13. The wearable electronic device of claim 12, further comprising: (0) (2)

14. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to execute the application for detecting and acquiring the user's biometric signal based on a user's input. (0)

15. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, (0) (2)

16. The wearable electronic device of claim 1, (3) (2)

wherein the wearing unit comprises: a first wearing member extending from the main body;

a binding member coupled to the first wearing member to be moved in a longitudinal direction of the first wearing member; and

a driving member installed in the first wearing member to move the binding member, and

wherein the processor is configured to tighten the wearing unit by using the driving member to move the binding member in the longitudinal direction of the first wearing member.

17. The wearable electronic device of claim 16, wherein the processor is further configured to release the wearing unit by using the driving member to move the binding member in the longitudinal direction of the first wearing member after the detecting and acquiring the user's biometric signal. (0)

18. The wearable electronic device of claim 16, wherein the driving member is made of at least one of an artificial muscle, a shape memory alloy, or an electro-active polymer. (0)

19. The wearable electronic device of claim 16, wherein the processor is further configured to: (1) (2)

determine whether a value of detected or acquired user's biometric signal exceeds a pre-set value or a recommended threshold, and

output an acoustic alarm or a visual alarm when the value of detected or acquired user's biometric signal exceeds the pre-set value or the recommended threshold.

20. The wearable electronic device of claim 19, wherein the processor is further configured to: (0) (2)
