1. A sensor unit comprising:
- a sensor section adapted to detect a motion of a measurement object; and
an announcement section coupled to the sensor section and adapted to announce whether or not the measurement object is in a rest state, the announcement section announcing that the measurement object is in the rest state in response to the sensor section detecting that the motion corresponds to the rest state for a predetermined time period, the announcement section announcing that the measurement object is in the rest state by emitting a predetermined one of a plurality of light patterns, or a predetermined one of a plurality of sound patterns, whereinthe predetermined one of the plurality of light patterns includes a first light emitting section emitting a first color light for a first time period while a second light emitting section is prevented from emitting a second, different color light for the first time period, andthe predetermined one of the plurality of sound patterns includes a first acoustic section emitting a first pitch for the first time period while a second acoustic section is prevented from emitting a second, different pitch for the first time period.

3. A sensor unit comprising:
-
a sensor section adapted to detect a motion of a measurement object; and an announcement section coupled to the sensor section and adapted to perform a determination on whether or not a value of an output signal of the sensor section exceeds a threshold value, and announce a result of the determination that the output signal is in error in the case that the value of the output signal does not exceed the threshold value. - View Dependent Claims (8, 10, 12)

13. A sensor unit comprising:
-
a sensor adapted to detect a motion of a measurement object; a processor adapted to determine, based on the detected motion of the measurement object, whether the measurement object is in the rest state or is not in the rest state; an announcement device adapted to announce that the measurement object is in the rest state when the processor determines that the measurement object is in the rest state, and to announce that the measurement object is not in the rest state when the processor determines that the measurement object is not in the rest state, the announcement device announcing that the measurement object is in the rest state in response to the sensor detecting that the motion corresponds to the rest state for a predetermined time period, the announcement device announcing that the measurement object is in the rest state by emitting a predetermined one of a plurality of light patterns, or a predetermined one of a plurality of sound patterns, wherein the predetermined one of the plurality of light patterns includes a first light emitting section emitting a first color light for a first time period while a second light emitting section is prevented from emitting a second, different color light for the first time period, and the predetermined one of the plurality of sound patterns includes a first acoustic section emitting a first pitch for the first time period while a second acoustic section is prevented from emitting a second, different pitch for the first time period.
