To add a function of computing an amount of electricity to be consumed by a virtual vehicle, to a device that simulates traveling of a railway vehicle.SOLUTION: An information processor is connected to a simulator that computes a speed and a traveling position of a virtual vehicle representing an electric railway vehicle on the basis of an operating manipulation performed by a user. The information processor includes: first acquisition means that acquires from the simulator first information containing data concerning the speed of the virtual vehicle; second acquisition means that acquires from the simulator second information containing data concerning the tensile force of the virtual vehicle; and arithmetic means that computes an amount of powering electricity and an amount of regenerative electricity of the virtual vehicle on the basis of the first information and second information.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】鉄道車両の走行をシミュレートする装置に、当該仮想車両が消費する電力量を演算する機能を付加する。【解決手段】ユーザが行った運転操作に基づいて電気鉄道車両である仮想車両の速度および走行位置を演算するシミュレーション装置と接続される情報処理装置。前記シミュレーション装置から、前記仮想車両の速度に関するデータを含む第一の情報を取得する第一取得手段と、前記仮想車両の引張力に関するデータを含む第二の情報を取得する第二取得手段と、前記第一の情報および前記第二の情報に基づいて、前記仮想車両の力行電力量および回生電力量を演算する演算手段と、を有する。【選択図】図１
