Abstract
A device for testing an application state of a plurality of strips of fiber reinforced plastic tape affixed in rows on a surface of a structure, the device includes an illumination component emits observation-use illuminating light beams toward a test region of the fiber reinforced plastic tape, an observation component observes reflected light from the test region, and a testing component tests the application state of the fiber reinforced plastic tape based on an image observed by the observation component. The illumination component includes a plurality of irradiation units that light simultaneously and are disposed such that a pair of the observation-use illuminating light beams are emitted from directions that are mutually symmetrical with respect to a normal line of the test region, and an illumination direction change component that changes the directions of the pair of observation-use illuminating light beams emitted from the illumination component about the normal line.
