To accurately predict a sensor value even in the case where external force is received. A control apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a prediction section that, in an actuator including a torque sensor that detects torque generated at a driving shaft, and an encoder that detects a rotational angle of the driving shaft, predicts a detection value of the encoder on a basis of a detection value of the torque sensor, or predict the detection value of the torque sensor on a basis of the detection value of the encoder, and a trouble determination section that compares a prediction value predicted by the prediction section with an actually measured value of the torque sensor or the encoder to perform trouble determination on the torque sensor or the encoder.
