Patent ID: 8812025

Claim:
A mobile terminal comprising: a positioning portion configured to identify a position of the mobile terminal repetitively; a stationary continuation determiner configured to determine whether or not the mobile terminal has continued to be stationary during a period including a current time depending on whether a traveling sensor is in a sleep state or not; and a traveling condition determiner configured to determine whether the mobile terminal is in a stationary condition or is in a traveling condition, wherein the positioning portion does not identify the position of the mobile terminal, without reference to a determination result of the traveling condition determiner, in a case in which the stationary continuation determiner determines that the mobile terminal has continued to be stationary during the period, wherein the positioning portion identifies the position of the mobile terminal in a case in which the stationary continuation determiner determines that the mobile terminal has not continued to be stationary during the period and in which the traveling condition determiner determines that the mobile terminal is in a traveling condition, wherein the positioning portion does not identify the position of the mobile terminal in a case in which the traveling condition determiner determines that the mobile terminal is in a stationary condition even in a case in which the stationary continuation determiner determines that the mobile terminal has not continued to be stationary during the period.
