For reducing power consumption associated with record of the positional information, an electronic apparatus comprises a positional information acquisition unit configured to acquire positional information of the electronic apparatus including time information; a memory; a clock circuit; and a processor configured to acquire first timing in a first operating state and second timing in a second operating state which differs from the first operating state, control the positional information acquisition unit to acquire, in the first operating state, the positional information of the electronic apparatus including the time information, control the memory to store a time of day measured by the clock circuit at the first timing, and control the positional information acquisition unit to acquire, in the second operating state, positional information of the electronic apparatus at the second timing.

Electronic apparatus, information processing method, and storage medium storing information processing program

An electronic apparatus provided with a touch screen, the electronic apparatus comprising: a first sensor that detects approach of a finger to the touch screen; and a controller that switches, in an inactive state of the touch screen, in a case where the first sensor detects the approach of the finger to the touch screen, an operating state of the touch screen from the inactive state to an active state.

Electronic apparatus, control method, and storage medium

An information processing apparatus includes a first processor, a second processor, and a positioning processor. The second processor consumes a reduced amount of power compared to the first processor during an operation. The positioning processor receives radio waves from positioning satellites and converts the radio waves into positioning data. The second processor controls the positioning processor. The second processor stores the positioning data received from the positioning processor. The second processor transfers the stored positioning data to the first processor at a timing determined in accordance with an operating condition of the first processor.

Information processing apparatus that saves power in position acquisition

An information processing apparatus includes a first processor, a second processor and a positioning processor. The second processor consumes a reduced amount of power compared to the first processor during an operation. The positioning processor receives radio waves from positioning satellites and converts the radio waves into positioning data. The second processor controls the positioning processor. The second processor stores the positioning data received from the positioning processor. The second processor transfers the stored positioning data to the first processor at a timing determined in accordance with an operating condition of the first processor.

An electronic device includes an audio receiver which receives audio of a user and converts the audio into audio information, and a processor. The processor performs first obtaining emotion information on a basis of the audio information converted by the audio receiver and second obtaining user-related information or environment information. In the first obtaining, the emotion information is obtained on a basis of the audio information of a predetermined timing which is decided on a basis of the user-related information or the environment information obtained in the second obtaining.
