Abstract
A sensor data acquisition unit 214 acquires sensor data indicating an acceleration of a device including a vibrator. A second estimation processing unit 250 estimates a speed of the device on the basis of the sensor data. A vibration determination unit 262 determines whether or not the vibrator is vibrating on the basis of the sensor data. A stationary determination unit 264 determines whether or not the device is stationary on the basis of the sensor data. A second estimation processing unit 250 reduces the estimated speed of the device in a case where it is determined that the vibrator is vibrating and the device is stationary.
