Abstract
Clothingmade of a cloth is put on a dummy objectthat is formed into a human-like shape and made of a material having less reflection of electric wave, in order to form a dummy doll. Then, a collision prediction test or inspection by a millimeter wave radar is performed while swaying the clothingby a blower. By swaying the clothing, the result of the measurement with the use of the millimeter wave radar same as that obtained by using an actual human can be obtained. Further, the clothingmay be swayed by vibrating the dummy dollor moving the same, instead of the sending air. A reflection plate may be incorporated into the dummy objectto change the reflection state of the reflection plate. According to these configurations, the result of the test or inspection similar to the vehicle collision prediction by the millimeter wave radar for an actual pedestrian can be obtained with the use of the dummy doll.
