First Claim
Patent Images
1. An estimation method performed by a computer, the method comprising:
- executing a distinguishing process that includes distinguishing ground-off and landing timings of respective four limbs of an animal based on measurement data acquired by using a motion sensor attached in front of a chest region of the animal which has four limbs used to move in a quadrupedal manner, the measurement data indicating a movement of the chest region of the animal which has been measured by the motion sensor, andexecuting a identifying process that includes identifying a limb which interlocks with a disorder of a motion waveform upon movement of the animal, based on the distinguished ground-off and landing timings of each of the four limbs of the animal.

Abstract
An estimation method performed by a computer, the method comprising: distinguishing ground-off and landing timings of respective four limbs of an animal based on measurement data acquired by using a motion sensor attached to the animal which has four limbs, and identifying a limb which interlocks with a disorder of a motion waveform upon a motion of the animal, based on the distinguished ground-off and landing timings of each of the four limbs of the animal.
