Patent number: 11899408Abstract: A pointer controller includes at least one processor; and a display that includes a pointer. The at least one processor is configured to control the display so as to display an elapsed time, switching between (i) a first display mode for display of the elapsed time cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that inherits a previous display time and (ii) a second display mode for display of the elapsed time non-cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that does not inherit the previous display time. The movement of the pointer controlled by the at least one processor is such that the first display mode and the second display mode differ from each other in a way of movement that indicates how the pointer moves.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2021Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD.Inventors: Tomoki Ishikawa, Shuto Oikawa, Hitoshi Tanaka, Chiharu Shiratori

Patent number: 11703812Abstract: A timepiece includes a clock circuit, a signal receiver configured to receive signals including time information, a processor configured to control a changing operation of changing a current time measured by the clock circuit based on the time information obtained from the signal receiver and controls a presenting operation of whether or not the changing operation is successful. The processor controls the changing operation based on a first flag indicating whether or not the signal receiver successfully receives the time information. The processor controls the presenting operation based on a second flag indicating whether or not the changing operation is successful within a predetermined period of time.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2019Date of Patent: July 18, 2023Assignee: CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD.Inventors: Hayato Hori, Shuto Oikawa

Publication number: 20220075323Abstract: A watch includes a pointer that rotates and indicates a time, a notifier that performs a notification operation to a user in a mode other than a visual mode, and a processor that controls the rotation of the pointer and the notification operation of the notifier. The processor is configured to control the pointer to cause the pointer to rotate faster than a rotation corresponding to a passage of time and move to a specified position and, when the pointer arrives at a notification position while the pointer is moving fast, control the notifier to cause the notifier to perform the notification operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2021Publication date: March 10, 2022Applicant: CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD.Inventor: Shuto OIKAWA

Patent number: 11269296Abstract: An electronic timepiece includes a storage that stores specific-region DST application rule information and local time information that includes, in association with each other, DST application rules for each region and standard-wave transmitting station information indicating each station transmitting standard waves receivable in the region; a processor that controls clock time to be kept by a clock circuit and displays time to be displayed on a display; and a standard wave receiver that receives standard waves and obtains time information. The processor calibrates the clock time based on the time information indicated by the standard waves received by the standard wave receiver, and controls the display time based on whether the specific-region DST application rule information and the DST application rule information associated with the standard-wave transmitting station information indicating a station transmitting the received standard waves satisfy a predetermined condition.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2018Date of Patent: March 8, 2022Assignee: CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD.Inventor: Shuto Oikawa

Publication number: 20210263476Abstract: A pointer display apparatus includes a pointer which operates in an operation range; and at least one processor which controls an operation of the pointer. In a first display mode in which the processor displays display contents with the pointer, the processor sets an evacuation state of the pointer in an evacuation operation in which the pointer is temporarily evacuated from a pointing range to be different from an evacuation state of the pointer in a mode other than the first display mode.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 16, 2021Publication date: August 26, 2021Applicant: CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD.Inventors: Chiharu SHIRATORI, Shuto OIKAWA, Tomoki ISHIKAWA, Hitoshi TANAKA

Publication number: 20210263106Abstract: A smartphone includes at least one processor. The processor acquires, from a time display device, log data of the time display device, and determines, based on the acquired log data and with an input command from a user received by the smartphone as a trigger, a status of whether the time display device is abnormal.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2021Publication date: August 26, 2021Applicant: CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD.Inventors: Takeshi Hanada, Akihiro Kuroha, Asahi Kurotaki, Shuto Oikawa, Makoto Sawada
