An electronic device comprises a body and a band being able to attach the body to a part of a human body. The body comprises first and second detectors and at least one processor. The first detector detects illuminance on an upper surface of the body. The second detector is located in a position distant from a position of the first detector in a short-side direction of the band and detects the illuminance on the upper surface of the body. The at least one processor executes predetermined processing if the at least one processor determines that at least one of first illuminance detected by the first detector and second illuminance detected by the second detector changes.

An electronic device includes a memory; a first processor; a second processor for which power consumption is lower than power consumption of the first processor; a communicator that communicates with an external device; and a switch that switches a connection destination of the communicator to the first processor or the second processor.

The second processor is configured to, in a case in which a condition for transitioning to a power suppression state that is an operating state in which power consumption is suppressed is satisfied, connect the communicator by the switch. The first processor is configured to, in a case in which a condition for transitioning to a normal state that is a normal operating state is satisfied, connect the communicator by the switch.

An electronic timepiece with a first and second electric motors for driving time indicating hands with a set of gear wheels, and a microcontroller connected to the motion sensor and controlling each motor. A motion sensor includes a movable element arranged to move freely inside a structure connected to the timepiece movement. As a function of the position and movement of the moving element inside the housing, a first and second electric signals, different from each other, are generated by the motion sensor for the microcontroller in a defined time period to determine whether the timepiece is in use. If only one electric signal is detected by the microcontroller in the defined time period, the timepiece changes into a sleep mode, by stopping at least the first electric motor intended to drive the seconds hand.

Power consumption due to failed automatic calibration is suppressed. An electronic watch is provided with a magnetic sensor, a processor for performing calibration of the magnetic sensor and controlling two or more function modes, and an acceleration sensor for sensing movement of a user. The processor determines whether a state of movement sensed by the acceleration sensor is a calibratable state in which calibration of the magnetic sensor can be performed, performs discrimination of a function mode being executed among the two or more function modes, and performs the calibration of the magnetic sensor when (i) the state of movement sensed by the acceleration sensor is the calibratable state and (ii) the function mode is not a non-default mode, the non-default mode being a function mode executed in accordance with an operation by the user.

A watch or other type of portable electronic console that employs a number of different functions in order to improve its usability. The watch may, for example, allow a user to connect the watch to one or more remote electronic devices, such as an electronic performance sensor or MP3 player. The watch then displays information related to the connected electronic devices. Still further, the watch may allow a user to control the operation of one or more connected remote electronic devices. Thus, if the watch is connected to a remote speed/distance monitor employing a calibration variable, then the watch may allow the user to adjust the calibration variable.
