Abstract

An electronic device for sensing and recording a dynamic state to enable a performance device to present a corresponding performance is provided. The electronic device includes a body, a processing unit, a sensing module, and a storage module. The sensing module detects a dynamic state of the body and sends a detected signal to the processing unit. The processing unit carries out a signal recording action for recording the signal detected by the sensing module and storing the signal in the storage module. The processing unit processes or judges the signal. A performance device performs a performance corresponding to the dynamic state of the body.
