PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To determine an appropriate wearing position of a biological sound sensor for detecting a biological sound.SOLUTION: A measuring apparatus 30 includes: a biological sound extraction part 3 which is put on a biological body and obtains sound data containing a measuring subject sound detected by a sound sensor 20 which detects at least one kind of measuring subject sound generated from the biological body a position determining part 4 which determines suitability of the wearing position of the sound sensor 20 on the basis of the sound data obtained by the biological sound extraction part 3. The biological sound extraction part 3 obtains a plurality of sound data from the sound sensor 20 which is placed on a different wearing position and the position determining part 4 relatively determines suitability of the sound sensor 20 by mutually comparing measuring subject sounds in which a plurality of sound data contained.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】生体音を検出する生体音センサの適切な装着位置を判定する。【解決手段】計測装置30は、生体に装着され、当該生体が発する少なくとも1種類の測定対象音を検出する音センサ20が検出した測定対象音を含む音データを取得する生体音抽出部3と、生体音抽出部3が取得した音データに基づいて音センサ20の装着位置の適否を判定する位置判定部4とを備えている。生体音抽出部3は、異なる装着位置の音センサ20から複数の音データを取得し、位置判定部4は、複数の音データに含まれる測定対象音を互いに比較することにより、音センサ20の適否を相対的に判定する。【選択図】図1
