Claim Text:
1. A test system for automobiles, comprising: a first actual machine that is installed in a first location, and that is a mechanical element of a vehicle; a second actual machine that is another mechanical element coupled to the first actual machine, the second actual machine being installed in a second location away from the first location; a first simulated machine that is installed in the first location, and simulates an operation of the second actual machine; a second simulated machine that is installed in the second location, and simulates an operation of the first actual machine, the second actual machine and the second simulated machine being mechanically coupled to each other, the first simulated machine and the first actual machine being mechanically coupled to each other, and the first simulated machine, the second actual machine, the second simulated machine, and the first actual machine being connected to a network so that data communication is performed and an operation test is performed; a first data processor that is connected to the first simulated machine and acquires data from the second actual machine via the network in each communication cycle; and a second data processor that is connected to the second simulated machine and acquires data from the first actual machine via the network in each communication cycle, wherein the first data processor calculates an estimated value used for performing interpolation on the data acquired in each communication cycle, and wherein the second data processor calculates an estimated value used for performing interpolation on the data acquired in each communication cycle.
