PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To determine the mounting arm (left arm/right arm) and the mounting side (inside/outside), and to apply setting matching the mounting state (the outside of the left arm/the inside of the left arm/the inside of the right arm/the outside of the right arm) by detecting a traveling state and a walking state and a gravity direction.SOLUTION: In a watch type device, a walking state detection part detects a walking state on the basis of the change pattern of acceleration, and a walking direction detection part detects a walking direction, and a gravity direction detection part detects a gravity direction, and a mounting side determination part determines the mounting side on the basis of the walking direction when the walking state is detected, and a mounting arm determination part determines the mounting arm on the basis of the gravity direction when the walking state is detected, and a setting part recognizes the mounting state on the basis of the mounting side and the mounting arm, and applies setting matching the mounting state.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】歩行状態と歩行方向と重力方向とを検出することで、装着腕(左腕/右腕)と装着側(内側/外側)とを判断し、装着状態(左腕の外側/左腕の内側/右腕の内側/右腕の外側)に合わせた設定を適用する。【解決手段】腕時計型デバイスにおいて、歩行状態検出部は、加速度の変化パターンに基づいて、歩行状態を検出する。歩行方向検出部は、歩行方向を検出する。重力方向検出部は、重力方向を検出する。装着側判断部は、歩行状態を検出した際、歩行方向を基に、装着側を判断する。装着腕判断部は、歩行状態を検出した際、重力方向を基に、装着腕を判断する。設定部は、装着側及び装着腕を基に、装着状態を認識し、装着状態に合わせた設定を適用する。【選択図】図1
