BODY CHARACTERISTIC MEASURING DEVICE, STORAGE MEDIUM STORING BODY CHARACTERISTIC MEASUREMENT PROGRAM, AND BODY CHARACTERISTIC MEASUREMENT METHOD

摘要

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.
