  • Publication number: 20220092841
    Abstract: When one of an acquired plurality of parameters that represents an exercise state changes or is assumed to change, a value of another parameter that changes in conjunction with that change is estimated. A parameter acquirer acquires, as indexes representing the exercise state of a subject, a value of a first parameter, and a value of a second parameter that is an index different from and having correlation with the first parameter. A parameter estimator estimates the value of the second parameter that corresponds to the another first parameter in accordance with a model generated on the basis of sets of a value of a third parameter as an input of the model and a fourth parameter as an output of the model. The third parameter is the same type as the first parameter and the fourth parameter is the same type as the exercise state of the second parameter.

  • Patent number: 11281165
    Abstract: In the case where a ticking timing of a clock unit changes, a CPU of an electronic timepiece outputs a synchronization request signal to a CPU of a display module at the next ticking timing after the change so as to request resynchronization. Each time a timer circuit counts a prescribed number of pulses in a clock signal generated by a clock generation circuit on the basis of the ticking timing, the CPU of the display module instructs a liquid crystal driver circuit to invert the polarity of an AC voltage to be applied to a liquid crystal panel. Moreover, upon receiving the synchronization request signal from the CPU of the electronic timepiece, the CPU of the display module sets the timer circuit to start a new count of the clock.
