Abstract: Provided is a system which enables more fulfilled health care closely tied with user's daily life and enables a user to execute health care without noticing and whose facility in use is improved. A health care system 1 is set up by biological information obtaining devices 10A and 10B, a biological information management device 20 which obtains user authentication by short-distance radio communication from the biological information obtaining device and receives biological information of a user measured, and a health care information providing device 30 connected to the biological information management device via a communication network 50 to receive biological information transmitted from the biological information management device, generate health care information by processing and transmit the generated information to the biological information management device as a requesting source. To the communication network, a health care information intermediating device 40 may be further connected.

Abstract: An inputting device, an electronic instrument using this inputting device, and an inputting method thereof, in which displacement of an operating section in the direction slanting for the X or the Y direction is detected and the movement of a moving object such as a cursor on a display can be controlled easily and precisely, are provided. The operating section is displaced about in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction for a plane being almost parallel to the surface of a cabinet. In case that orthogonal coordinates having the X axis and the Y axis are set on the plane being almost parallel to the surface of the cabinet, horizontal direction sensors detect the displacement of the operating section in the direction slanting for the X or Y direction, in addition to in the X or Y direction. The cursor moves on the display based on the displacement of the operating section about in the horizontal direction.
