Abstract
A posture estimation method includes calculating a posture change amount of an object based on an output of an angular velocity sensor, predicting posture information of the object by using the posture change amount, adjusting error information in a manner of determining whether or not the output of the angular velocity sensor is within an effective range and, when it is determined that the output of the angular velocity sensor is not within the effective range, increasing a posture error component in error information and reducing a correlation component between the posture error component and an error component other than the posture error component in the error information, and correcting the predicted posture information of the object based on the error information.
