PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately count steps even when a walking situation changes and a sensing axis of a sensor deviates from an optimum angle. SOLUTION: A single-axis static acceleration sensor 107 outputs a static acceleration signal according to the direction of the sensing axis and outputs a walk signal corresponding to a dynamic acceleration signal indicating a walk. A CPU 101 controls an amplification factor of an amplification circuit 106 in response to a static acceleration signal from an A/D conversion circuit 105. The amplification circuit 106 amplifies to output the walk signal from the sensor 107 at the amplification factor set by the CPU 101. The CPU 101 counts the number of steps on the basis of the walk signal received from the amplification circuit 106. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
