  • 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.

    Abstract: A device includes a processor which controls a display operation of a display unit. The processor acquires a specified portion specified by a first user operation in an object image including an object to be imaged, sets an enlargement reference point in the object image according to the specified portion with respect to which a part of the object image is enlarged when performing enlargement display control, and extracts a display target range from the object image as the part of the object image to be enlarged. The display target range includes both the enlargement reference point and the specified portion, and the enlargement reference point is set so that the representative point approaches a middle of the display area in response to each input of a second user operation for performing enlargement display control, until the representative point coincides with the middle of the display area.

  • Publication number: 20240019815
    Abstract: A module which enables slimming down and a timepiece provided with the module are provided. The timepiece module includes a timepiece movement which is a driving section that moves pointers, and a liquid crystal display panel which has an opening section where the timepiece movement is arranged, and is arranged in parallel with the timepiece movement. Since the timepiece movement is arranged in the opening section of the liquid crystal display panel and positioned in parallel with the liquid crystal display panel, the timepiece movement and the liquid crystal display panels do not vertically overlap with each other, whereby the slimming down of the entire timepiece module can be achieved, which enables the slimming down of the entire wristwatch.
