Observation of indoor simuration during earthquakes was performed in the E-defense shaking table experiment by use of newly developed monitoring system with 360 degree video camera and ecceleration sensors. Response simulation of furniture in the room was tried using the software with realistic experessions. Parameters setting in the simulation such as the center of gravity, mass and friction coefficient are examined as compared with the experimental results. Introduced observation and simulation methods will be useful for educational purpose as well as disaster emergency response.
