1. An information acquisition device, comprising a CPU (Central Processing Unit) that is configured to:
estimate, from a captured image data, a skeleton of a living body in the captured image data;
acquire attribute data including a body height of the living body;
calculate a first length equivalent to a first skeleton forming a part of the body height, the first length being obtained by subtracting a specified value from the body height;
calculate a ratio of a length of a skeleton portion corresponding to a target portion of the living body to a length of the first skeleton, the length of the skeleton portion and the length of the first skeleton being lengths in the skeleton estimated from the captured image data; and
calculate a length of the target portion of the living body by multiplying the first length by the ratio, of the target portion, calculated with respect to the length of the first skeleton in the skeleton estimated,
wherein
the length of the first skeleton is between a predetermined position of a head and a predetermined position of a foot in the skeleton,
the CPU obtains specified value determination data that is data being stored in advance and enabling determination of a specified value equivalent to a difference between a body height of a service user which is described in the attribute data and a skeleton of the service user,
the specified value determination data includes a first specified value and a second specified value, the first specified value being equivalent to a length between the predetermined position of the head and a head top position, in the skeleton, the second specified value being equivalent to a length between a predetermined position of the foot and a sole position, in the skeleton,
the specified value is a value obtained by adding the first specified value, and the second specified value,
the target portion includes a leg,
the CPU performs a foot grounding property determination process of determining foot grounding property when the living body is seated on a predetermined seating part based on a calculated length of the leg,
in the foot grounding property determination process, the CPU acquires vehicle data related to a test ride vehicle on which a virtual test ride is possible, determines an amount of compression of a suspension of the test ride vehicle due to a body weight included in the attribute data using the vehicle data, corrects a seat height of the predetermined seating part by the amount of compression determined, and determines the foot grounding property based on the seat height corrected, and
the CPU displays the foot grounding property determined on a display panel.
