WEARABLE TERMINAL AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

摘要

A wearable terminal to be worn on an arm of a person includes a detection unit that detects a movement of the wearable terminal, a determination unit that determines whether the movement detected by the detection unit is a one of certain movements caused by certain actions of the person, a signal generation unit that, if the determination unit determines that the movement detected by the detection unit is one of the certain movements, generates a control signal for causing a navigation apparatus to change, in accordance with the detected certain movement, a map displayed on the navigation apparatus that is installed in a vehicle and that is capable of communicating with the wearable terminal, and a communication unit that transmits the control signal generated by the generation unit to the navigation apparatus.
