ALTITUDE INFORMATION ACQUIRING DEVICE AND ALTITUDE INFORMATION ACQUIRING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An altitude information acquiring device comprising:
- a measuring unit which measures an atmospheric pressure;
a wireless communication unit which performs near field communication with an external device;
an altitude information acquiring unit which acquires altitude information from an external positioning device through the wireless communication unit;
an inversion detecting unit which detects an inversion of a changing direction of the atmospheric pressure periodically measured by the measuring unit;
a communication control unit which controls a timing to acquire the altitude information through the wireless communication unit at a set timing, based on the inversion detected by the inversion detecting unit; and
an integrated altitude change acquiring unit which acquires a rise altitude integrated value obtained by integrating an amount of altitude change upon a rise and a fall altitude integrated value obtained by integrating an amount of altitude change upon a fall, based on the acquired altitude information.
