  • Patent number: 11959980
    Abstract: Power consumption due to failed automatic calibration is suppressed. An electronic watch is provided with a magnetic sensor, a processor for performing calibration of the magnetic sensor and controlling two or more function modes, and an acceleration sensor for sensing movement of a user. The processor determines whether a state of movement sensed by the acceleration sensor is a calibratable state in which calibration of the magnetic sensor can be performed, performs discrimination of a function mode being executed among the two or more function modes, and performs the calibration of the magnetic sensor when (i) the state of movement sensed by the acceleration sensor is the calibratable state and (ii) the function mode is not a non-default mode, the non-default mode being a function mode executed in accordance with an operation by the user.

  • Patent number: 11925851
    Abstract: An exercise assisting device includes at least one processor. The processor obtains motion data on a current exercise form of a user performing a certain repetitive exercise motion including a certain motion state. Based on the obtained motion data, the processor determines a point of time at which the motion state occurs in one cycle of the repetitive exercise motion. Based on the obtained motion data and the point of time, the processor obtains the current exercise form in the motion state. The processor obtains a difference between the obtained current exercise form and a target exercise form. The processor causes an actuator to apply a stimulus to a body of the user based on the difference. The actuator is attached to a part of the body of the user constituting the exercise form. The stimulus suggests correction of the exercise form and indicates a direction to move the part.

  • Patent number: 11815980
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a memory; a first processor; a second processor for which power consumption is lower than power consumption of the first processor; a communicator that communicates with an external device; and a switch that switches a connection destination of the communicator to the first processor or the second processor. The second processor is configured to, in a case in which a condition for transitioning to a power suppression state that is an operating state in which power consumption is suppressed is satisfied, connect the communicator by the switch. The first processor is configured to, in a case in which a condition for transitioning to a normal state that is a normal operating state is satisfied, connect the communicator by the switch.
