Abstract:
1. An answer counting system for counting answers to a question, comprising: a receiving part configured to receive detection results at respective times of reception about answering actions performed by answerers to answer a specific question and detected by motion sensors of answering terminals operated by the answerers and terminal codes by which the answering terminals can be identified, wherein the times of reception are based on a clock time of the answer counting system; a grouping part configured to group the detection results received by the receiving part based on the times of reception of the detection results; a result storing part configured to store the detection results in association with the terminal codes for each group grouped by the grouping part; an answering action differentiating part configured to differentiate the detection results between answering actions of shaking the answering terminals in a first direction and answering actions of shaking the answering terminals in a second direction different from the first direction; a differentiation result counting and analyzing part configured to count and analyze the detection results for each group on a per group basis; and a displaying part configured to display a count and analysis result counted and analyzed in the differentiation result counting and analyzing part.
