Abstract

An electronic device capable of estimating a user's situation is to be provided. The electronic device includes a camera, a processing portion, and a display portion. The camera has a function of capturing an image of a user's eye and his/her periphery repeatedly to generate a plurality of pieces image data. The processing portion has a function of detecting, from the plurality of pieces of image data, a change over time in information including at least one of a frequency of eye blinks, a time taken for one blink, a distance between an upper eyelid and a lower eyelid, a sight direction, and an area of a pupil, a function of estimating a level of user's eye fatigue on the basis of the change over time in information, and a function of generating string information in accordance with the estimated level of user's eye fatigue. The display portion has a function of displaying string information.
