1. A control device comprising a processor configured to control opening and closing of a structure, wherein
the processor controls an opening operation or a closing operation of the structure to match an operation direction of the structure obtained by a first sensor provided to the structure,
the processor further controls the closing operation of the structure until the structure is fully closed when the operation direction of the structure obtained by the first sensor is a closing direction, and controls the opening operation of the structure until the structure is fully opened when the operation direction of the structure obtained by the first sensor is an opening direction,
when a second sensor different from the first sensor provided to the structure detects a user's contact with the structure, and the first sensor obtains information related to the operation direction of the structure, the processor controls the opening operation or the closing operation of the structure to match the operation direction,
the first sensor is an accelerator sensor,
the second sensor includes a touch sensor,
the structure includes a door,
the door is mounted on a movable body, and
when a value detected by the acceleration sensor is a threshold or more, the processor performs the opening operation or the closing operation of the structure.
