Abstract
An electronic device in an aspect of the present disclosure is an electronic device which is mounted on a seat that is turnable around a first axis such that the electronic device is turnable around a second axis. The electronic device includes a detector that detects acceleration information, and a controller that determines which of a turn around the first axis and a turn around the second axis is occurring based on a temporal change in the acceleration information detected by the detector.
Claims7
An information processing apparatus configured to be connected to a plurality of electronic devices, the plurality of electronic devices being configured to detect accelerations, the plurality of electronic devices being respectively mounted on a plurality of seats that are arranged in a vehicle, each of the plurality of seats being configured to be reclined around a first axis, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- an input unit configured to receive the accelerations detected by the plurality of electronic devices respectively mounted on the plurality of seats;
- a determination unit configured to determine an inclination of the vehicle based on the accelerations detected by the plurality of electronic devices;
- and
- a calculator configured to identify a seat, from among the plurality of seats, that is reclined around the first axis based on both of (i) the accelerations detected by the plurality of electronic devices and (ii) the determined inclination of the vehicle.
