Abstract
Disclosed is a physique estimation device that can estimate a physique. The physique estimation device includes: a sensor having a transmission antenna to transmit a transmission wave, and a reception antenna to receive the transmission wave reflected by at least one target in a vehicle cabin as a received wave; a frequency analysis unit to acquire position information about a reflection point where the transmission wave is reflected using the received wave; and a physique estimation unit to estimate the physique of a non-static object present in the vehicle cabin using the position information.
