    Abstract: A control device is provided for a human-powered vehicle that includes a generator configured to output electrical power, an electric power storage device electrically connected to the generator, and a component having an actuator actuated by electrical power from at least one of the generator and the electric power storage device. The control device includes a controller electrically connected to at least one of the generator and the electric power storage device. The controller is configured to control an operation state of the component in accordance with information relating to at least one of an output state of the generator and a store state of the electric power storage device.

    Abstract: An electric device comprises first communicator circuitry and first electronic controller circuitry. The first communicator circuitry is configured to receive a signal from second communicator circuitry of a second electric device. The first electronic controller circuitry is configured to change a state of the first communicator circuitry from a first state to a second state based on a first output of a first sensor configured to sense a first sensor object. The first state has first power consumption. The second state has second power consumption. The first power consumption is lower than the second power consumption. The first electronic controller circuitry is configured to change the state of the first communicator circuitry from the second state to the first state based on a second output of a second sensor configured to sense a second sensor object different from the first sensor object.
