Abstract

A walking measurement device is provided that includes a timing detection unit configured to detect an impact generation timing at which an impact resulting from a landing of a left foot or a right foot has been generated; an acceleration sensor configured to repeatedly detect, at predetermined time intervals, an acceleration in a lateral direction along which the left foot and the right foot are arranged side by side; and a first determination unit configured to determine whether the impact generation timing corresponds to a landing timing of the left foot or a landing timing of the right foot based on the impact generation timing detected by the timing detection unit and the acceleration detected by the acceleration sensor.
