Provided is a pointing data input method using a pointing device having a directional sensor for inputting pointing data accurately in an intended direction regardless of the bearing of the device, and a non-directional sensor. A device (100) includes DS (110), NDS (120), and a controller (130). The controller (130) controls pointing data on the basis of NDS data, and the pointing data is recognized by the DS (110) and is inputted based on a measured movement direction and distance. The controller (130) includes a comparator (132) for comparing the NDS data with the DS data, a modifier 134 for modifier (134) for modifying the DS data, and a means (136) for outputting the movement direction recognized by the NDS (120) as pointing data.
