Abstract: A method for detecting an injury of a quadruped includes: receiving measured data that is based on a gait of the quadruped and includes acceleration in a top-bottom direction and acceleration in a front-back direction; determining timings of putting legs of the quadruped on the ground based on the acceleration in the top-bottom direction, included in the received measured data, and determining whether or not each of the legs is injured based on values, corresponding to the determined timing of putting the legs on the ground, of the acceleration in the front-back direction.

Abstract: An estimation method performed by a computer includes: executing a first identifying process that includes identifying a candidate for a limb having a problem by evaluating left and right balance at the time of movement based on measurement data of a motion sensor attached to an animal moving on four limbs, and executing a second identifying process that includes identifying the limb having a problem among the limbs which are considered as the candidates for a limb having a problem based on a detection result of a nutation movement by detecting the nutation movement from the measurement data.

Abstract: A body characteristic measurement method causing a computer to execute a process, the process includes: determining a gait of a quadruped based on accelerations, acquired from a multi-axis acceleration sensor attached to the chest of the quadruped, in multiple axial directions; and determining, if the determined gait is gallop or canter, an injury risk of the quadruped based on a waveform of a positive half-wave region of acceleration in a movement direction of the quadruped in the case where an increase in the acceleration in the movement direction of the quadruped is defined as positive.

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.
