Abstract
Control section (160) is configured to measure the azimuth of electronic device (100) on the basis of the result detected by geomagnetic sensor (120) for detecting geomagnetism, and on the basis of the result detected by motion sensor (130) for detecting movement of electronic device (100), and is configured, while motion sensor (130) is detecting that electronic device (100) is stationary, to measure the azimuth of electronic device (100) only on the basis of the result detected by motion sensor (130), and the azimuth measured by control section (160) is displayed by display section (170).
