Description

  The present invention relates to an electronic watch and a program.

  In an altimeter using a barometric pressure sensor, the altitude (altitude) to be measured may deviate from the actual altitude due to fluctuations in barometric pressure or temperature. Therefore, it is necessary for the user to correct the altitude measured at the mountain climbing opening etc. at the time of climbing. Conventionally, elevation correction performed at the start of elevation measurement using an altimeter requires inputting a correction value with reference to the elevation described on a signboard or the like at a start point such as a entrance (for example, see Patent Document 1).

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure showing conventional correction processing. First, the altimeter receives an input of the elevation hgate at the entrance (step S1001). The user inputs the altitude indicated on a signboard or the like at the entrance. Subsequently, the altimeter measures the initial height h0 (step S1002). Then, the altimeter corrects the measured initial height h0 to the input height hgate (step S1003). Thereafter, the altimeter receives an input of a climbing start button (step S1004). The user presses a climbing start button. Then, the altimeter measures and displays the current altitude (step S1005).

  However, the input operation of the correction value necessary for the altitude correction of the altimeter is complicated and time-consuming. Therefore, it takes time and effort for the user to stop and perform the correction value input operation immediately before climbing. In addition, depending on the location, there is also a place where there is no indication of elevation, and in some cases it was not possible to make elevation correction.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above-described circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an electronic timepiece and a program capable of correcting elevation more easily without the user inputting a correction value. .

According to the present invention, an altitude measuring unit for measuring altitude, a storage unit for storing a starting altitude which is an altitude at a mountain climbing start point, an operation unit for receiving an input, and a selecting unit for receiving selection input whether to correct the altitude or not If, when receiving an input of the operation unit shown climbing start only when the selection unit accepts a selection input for correcting, based on the stored starting altitude in the storage unit, the altitude measurement unit is measured And a correction unit that corrects the altitude.

  In the electronic timepiece according to another aspect of the present invention, the correction unit is configured to set the difference when the difference between the altitude measured by the altitude measurement unit and the start altitude stored in the storage unit is equal to or less than a predetermined value. It is characterized in that the altitude measured by the altitude measurement unit is corrected.

  Further, in the electronic timepiece according to another aspect of the present invention, the storage unit stores the altitude at each of a plurality of points, and the correction unit measures the altitude measured by the altitude measurement unit among the altitudes stored by the storage unit. It is characterized in that the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit is corrected based on the altitude closest to the altitude.

In another aspect of the present invention, the computer of the electronic timepiece includes a selection step of receiving selection input of whether to correct the elevation, an altitude measurement step of measuring the elevation, and an input indicating the start of mountain climbing by the operation unit. If accepted, the altitude measured by the altitude measurement step based on the start altitude stored in the storage unit storing the start altitude, which is the altitude at the mountain climbing start point , only when the selection input to be corrected in the selection step is accepted. And a correction step of correcting

  According to the present invention, the electronic timepiece includes an altitude measurement unit that measures the altitude, a storage unit that stores the starting altitude that is the altitude at the mountain climbing start point, an operation unit that receives an input, and a correction unit. When the operation unit receives an input indicating the start of mountain climbing, the correction unit corrects the altitude measured by the altitude measurement unit based on the start altitude stored in the storage unit. That is, by storing the start elevation which is the correction value in the storage unit in advance, registration of the correction value and correction based on the registered correction value can be performed at different timings. Thereby, the elevation can be corrected without the user inputting the correction value while climbing.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The same reference numerals are given to the same parts in the respective drawings.

First Embodiment
First, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is a front view showing an appearance configuration of the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment. The electronic watch 100 is an electronic watch with an advanced measurement function. As illustrated, the electronic timepiece 100 includes a plurality of (six in the present embodiment) key input units 104A to 104F and a display unit 105.

  The key input units 104A to 104F (operation unit, input unit) receive an operation input. For example, the key input unit 104F is a climbing start button that receives an operation input indicating the start of climbing, and is a climbing end button that receives an operation input indicating the end of climbing. In addition, the key input means 104A to F receive an input of a start altitude (correction value) which is an altitude at a climbing start point. Note that the operation unit that receives an operation input may be composed of a plurality of key input means 104 or may be composed of one key input means 104. The display unit 105 is a liquid crystal display, a segment display, or the like, and displays information.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment. In the illustrated example, the electronic timepiece 100 includes a central processing unit (CPU) 101 (correction unit), an oscillation circuit 102, a divider circuit 103, a key input unit 104, a display unit 105, a battery 106, and an atmospheric pressure. A measurement unit 107, an altitude measurement unit 108, a random access memory (RAM) 110 (storage unit), and a read only memory (ROM) 111 are provided.

  The CPU 101 controls each part of the electronic timepiece 100. In addition, when the key input unit 104A-F receives an input of the start elevation, the CPU 101 writes the start elevation in the RAM 110 and stores the start elevation. In addition, when the key input means 104A-F receives an input indicating the start of climbing, the CPU 101 determines that the difference between the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 and the starting altitude stored in the RAM 110 is equal to or less than a predetermined value. Based on the starting altitude stored in the RAM 110, the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 is corrected.

  Further, the CPU 101 counts the current time based on the measurement signal input from the divider circuit 103 and displays the current time on the display unit 105. In addition, the CPU 101 displays the altitude input from the altitude measurement unit 108 on the display unit 105.

  The oscillation circuit 102 generates an oscillation signal of a predetermined frequency (for example, 32768 Hz) and outputs the oscillation signal to the divider circuit 103. The divider circuit 103 divides the frequency of the oscillation signal input from the oscillation circuit 102 to generate a measurement signal as a reference of measurement, and outputs the generated measurement signal to the CPU 101. The key input unit 104 (104A to F) receives an operation input. The battery 106 supplies power for operation to each unit included in the electronic timepiece 100.

  The atmospheric pressure measurement unit 107 is, for example, an atmospheric pressure sensor, measures atmospheric pressure, and outputs the measured atmospheric pressure to the altitude measurement unit 108. The altitude measurement unit 108 measures the altitude (altitude) based on the atmospheric pressure input from the atmospheric pressure measurement unit 107, and outputs the measured altitude to the CPU 101. The barometric pressure measurement unit 107 and the altitude measurement unit 108 constitute an altimeter for measuring the altitude (altitude).

  The RAM 110 stores data used by each unit of the electronic timepiece 100. For example, the RAM 110 stores a start elevation which is an elevation at a mountain climbing start point. The ROM 111 stores an operation program to be executed by the CPU 101 in advance. The operation program is read out when the CPU 101 is started.

  Next, a registration process in which the electronic timepiece 100 according to the present embodiment registers the start elevation will be described. FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing the procedure of the registration process performed by the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment. When the electronic timepiece 100 receives an input of an operation for registering the start elevation (for example, the key input unit 104A receives a long press input), the electronic timepiece 100 executes the registration process shown in the figure. The user executes the registration process, for example, at home, etc., and registers in advance the start elevation of the mountain climbing start point.

(Step S101) The CPU 101 receives an input of the start elevation of the entrance (mountain climbing start point). The user operates the key input means 104A to 104F to input the start elevation. Then, it progresses to the process of step S102.
(Step S102) The CPU 101 writes and stores the start elevation hgate of the entrance which has been input in step S101 in the RAM 110. Thereafter, the process ends.

  Next, a correction process will be described in which the electronic timepiece 100 according to the present embodiment corrects the altitude measured by the altitude measurement unit 108 based on the registered start altitude. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the correction process performed by the electronic timepiece 100 according to the present embodiment. When the mountain climbing start button receives an input, the electronic timepiece 100 executes the correction process shown in the figure. The user executes the correction process, for example, at the start point of mountain climbing, and corrects the measured altitude.

(Step S201) The CPU 101 causes the height measurement unit 108 to measure the initial height h0. Then, it progresses to the process of step S202.
(Step S202) The CPU 101 compares the initial altitude h0 measured by the altitude measurement unit 108 in step S201 with the start altitude hgate stored in the RAM 110, and determines whether to correct the altitude. Specifically, the CPU 101 determines to correct when the difference between the initial elevation h0 and the start elevation hgate is less than or equal to a predetermined value (hgate−predetermined value ≦ h0 ≦ hgate + predetermined value), and determines the initial elevation h0 and the start elevation hgate. It is determined that the correction is not performed if the difference between If the CPU 101 determines that correction is to be performed, the process proceeds to step S203. If the CPU 101 determines that the correction is not made, the process proceeds to step S204.

(Step S203) The CPU 101 corrects the initial altitude h0 to the start altitude hgate. Then, it progresses to the process of step S205.
(Step S204) The CPU 101 uses the initial altitude 0 as it is without correcting it. Then, it progresses to the process of step S205.

(Step S205) The CPU 101 measures the current altitude by the altitude measuring unit 108. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S206.
(Step S206) The CPU 101 displays the current altitude measured at step S205 on the display unit 105. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S207.

  (Step S207) The CPU 101 determines whether the mountain climbing end button has received an input. If the CPU 101 determines that the mountain climbing end button receives an input, the process ends. If it is determined that the mountain climbing end button does not receive an input, the process returns to step S205.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the CPU 101 stores the start elevation input in the registration process in the RAM 110. Thus, the registration process and the correction process can be performed at different timings. For example, while referring to the topographical map etc. at home, the registration of the start elevation can be performed, and the correction of the elevation can be performed at the start point where the mountain climbing is started. Thus, it is possible to save time and effort to enter the starting elevation during climbing. That is, the elevation can be corrected without the user inputting the correction value during mountain climbing. Also, since the CPU 101 corrects the first elevation h0 only when the difference between the first elevation h0 and the start elevation hgate is equal to or less than a predetermined value, for example, the elevation of a point different from the mountaineering start point is incorrectly registered. If it has been done, it is possible to prevent the initial height h0 from being corrected to an incorrect value.

Second Embodiment
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. The configuration of the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment is the same as the configuration in the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. Although the electronic timepiece 100 in the first embodiment corrects the elevation only at the climbing start point, the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment corrects the elevation at a plurality of points (destinations) on the mountain climbing route. it can.

  The key input means 104A-F in this embodiment receives the input of the altitude (correction value) in each of a plurality of destinations (points) in the mountain climbing route. The key input unit 104F is a destination arrival button that receives an input indicating arrival at a destination. The CPU 101 writes and stores in the RAM 110 the altitude of each destination for which the key input means 104A to 104F has received an input. Further, the CPU 101 selects the altitude closest to the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 among the altitudes stored in the RAM 110. Then, the CPU 101 corrects the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 based on the selected altitude. The RAM 110 stores an elevation table indicating the elevation of each destination. The other configuration is the same as that of the first embodiment, and thus the description thereof is omitted.

  Next, the elevation table stored in the RAM 110 in the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 5 is a schematic view showing a data configuration and an example of data of an elevation table stored in the RAM 110 in the present embodiment. As shown, the elevation table has items of No, milestone, and elevation hgate. No is the identification information of the milestone. A milestone is a destination. The elevation hgate is the elevation of the milestone (in meters).

  As shown in the figure, the milestone corresponding to No. 1 is the entrance A terminal, and the elevation hgate is 2450 m. Also, the milestone corresponding to No 2 is the midpoint, and the elevation hgate is 2545 m. Also, the milestone corresponding to No. 3 is point B, and the altitude hgate is 2691 m. The milestone corresponding to No. 4 is C mountain, and the height hgate is 3003 m.

  Next, registration processing will be described in which the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment registers the altitude of each destination. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the registration process performed by the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment. When the electronic timepiece 100 receives an input of an operation for registering the altitude (for example, the key input unit 104A receives a long press input), the electronic timepiece 100 executes the registration process shown in the figure. The user executes the registration process at, for example, a home and registers in advance the altitude of each destination for mountain climbing.

(Step S301) The CPU 101 receives an input of the altitude of each destination on the mountain climbing route. The user operates the key input means 104A to 104F to input the altitude of each destination. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S302.
(Step S302) The CPU 101 generates an elevation table based on the elevations of the respective destinations input in step S101, and writes the generated elevation table in the RAM 110 for storage. Thereafter, the process ends.

  Next, a correction process in which the electronic timepiece 100 according to the present embodiment corrects the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 based on the registered altitude will be described. FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the correction process performed by the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment. When the mountain climbing start button receives an input, the electronic timepiece 100 executes the correction process shown in the figure. The user executes the correction process, for example, at the start point of mountain climbing, and corrects the measured altitude.

(Step S401) The CPU 101 causes the altitude measurement unit 108 to measure the initial height h0. Then, it progresses to the process of step S402.
(Step S402) The CPU 101 compares the initial height h0 measured by the height measurement unit 108 in step S401 with the height hgate stored in the RAM 110 to determine whether to correct the height. Specifically, the CPU 101 first selects an altitude hgate having a value closest to the initial altitude h0 among the altitudes hgate stored in the altitude table. Subsequently, the CPU 101 determines that correction is performed when the difference between the initial height h0 and the selected height hgate is less than a predetermined value, and determines that correction is not performed when the difference between the initial height h0 and the height hgate is greater than the predetermined value. Do. If the CPU 101 determines that correction is to be performed, the process proceeds to step S403. If the CPU 101 determines that the correction is not made, the process proceeds to step S404.

(Step S403) The CPU 101 corrects the initial height h0 to the selected height hgate. Then, it progresses to the process of step S405.
(Step S404) The CPU 101 uses the initial altitude 0 as it is without correcting it. Then, it progresses to the process of step S405.

(Step S405) The CPU 101 causes the altitude measuring unit 108 to measure the current altitude. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S406.
(Step S406) The CPU 101 displays the current altitude measured in Step S405 on the display unit 105. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S407.

  (Step S407) The CPU 101 determines whether the destination arrival button receives an input. If the CPU 101 determines that the destination arrival button receives an input, the process returns to step S401. If it is determined that the destination arrival button has not received an input, the process proceeds to step S408.

  (Step S408) The CPU 101 determines whether the mountain climbing end button has received an input. If the CPU 101 determines that the mountain climbing end button receives an input, the process ends. If it is determined that the mountain climbing end button does not receive an input, the process returns to step S405.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, in addition to the configuration in the first embodiment, the CPU 101 stores in the RAM 110 an elevation table indicating the altitude of each input destination in the registration process. Then, in the correction process, the CPU 101 selects from the elevation table the altitude closest to the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108, and corrects the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 at the selected altitude. Thereby, in addition to the effect in the first embodiment, it is possible to correct the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 without the user inputting the altitude at each destination on the mountain climbing route.

Third Embodiment
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described. The configuration of the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment is the same as the configuration in the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. In the first and second embodiments, the electronic timepiece 100 automatically corrects the altitude when the mountain climbing start button receives an input, but in the present embodiment, the electronic timepiece 100 corrects the altitude. The elevation is corrected only when the selection input as to whether or not is accepted and the selection input to be compensated is accepted.

  When the mountain climbing start button or the destination arrival button receives an input, the CPU 101 (selection unit) in the present embodiment displays a selection screen for selecting whether to correct the elevation on the display unit 105 and performs key input A selection input as to whether or not to correct the elevation is accepted by means 104A-F. The user operates the key input units 104A to 104F to select and input whether to correct the elevation. Then, the CPU 101 corrects the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 only when the selection input to be corrected is received on the selection screen. The other configuration is the same as that of the second embodiment, and thus the description thereof is omitted.

  Next, a correction process in which the electronic timepiece 100 according to the present embodiment corrects the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 based on the registered altitude will be described. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the correction process performed by the electronic timepiece 100 in the present embodiment. When the mountain climbing start button receives an input, the electronic timepiece 100 executes the correction process shown in the figure. The user executes the correction process, for example, at the start point of mountain climbing, and corrects the measured altitude. In addition, since the registration process in this embodiment is the same as the registration process in 2nd Embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the description is abbreviate | omitted.

(Step S501) The CPU 101 determines whether to correct the altitude. Specifically, first, the CPU 101 displays on the display unit 105 a selection screen for selecting whether to correct the altitude. Then, the CPU 101 determines that the elevation is to be corrected when the selection input for correcting the elevation is received on the selection screen, and determines that the elevation is not to be corrected when the selection input for not correcting the elevation is received. If the CPU 101 determines that the elevation is to be corrected, the process proceeds to step S502. If the CPU 101 determines that the elevation is not corrected, the process proceeds to step S506.
Since the processes of steps S502 to S509 are the same as the processes of steps S401 to S408 described above, the description thereof is omitted.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, in addition to the configuration in the second embodiment, the CPU 101 receives a selection input as to whether to correct the altitude. Then, the CPU 101 corrects the altitude measured by the altitude measuring unit 108 only when the selection input to be corrected is received. Thereby, in addition to the effect in the second embodiment, the altitude can be corrected only when the user permits the correction of the altitude. That is, it is possible to prevent the altitude from being corrected without the user's knowledge.
