If the first waveform data and the second waveform data match as a result of comparison, the extraction unit 32 may, for example, cause the output unit 35 to send a message to the effect that the operation has been recognized. If the first waveform data and the second waveform data do not match, for example, a display requesting the output unit 35 to perform the expression of a person again (for example, "Operation failed.
