Abstract
An estimation device mounted to a mobile object comprises an acquisition unit, an extraction unit, and an estimation unit. The acquisition unit acquires reflection point information for each of a plurality of reflection points detected by a radar device mounted to the mobile object. The extraction unit extracts, among the plurality of reflection points, at least one road surface reflection point detected by reflection on a road surface, based on at least the reflection point information. The estimation unit estimates a device height which is the height of the radar device mounted to the mobile object, based on at least a road surface reflection point distance which is the distance from the radar device to the road surface reflection point.
