  • Patent number: 10347029
    Abstract: A three-dimensional shape measurement apparatus includes an imaging unit that successively outputs two-dimensional images captured, a memory unit that stores the two-dimensional images outputted by the imaging unit, a three-dimensional shape model generation unit which generates a three-dimensional shape model, based on the two-dimensional images and stores the three-dimensional shape model in the memory unit, a region calculation unit that calculates, based on the two-dimensional images and the three-dimensional shape model stored in the memory unit, a measurement-completed region in the two-dimensional images, and a display image generation unit that generates, based on the measurement-completed region, a display image from the two-dimensional images.

  • Patent number: 10068339
    Abstract: An image processing device includes an acquiring unit that acquires plural images in which an object is captured from multiple directions; a calculation unit that calculates a value representing a quality of the images; a determining unit that determines a process for measuring a surface shape of the object depending on the quality of the images; and an execution unit that executes the process which is determined.

  • Patent number: 9704255
    Abstract: A device for measuring a three-dimensional shape includes an imaging unit which sequentially outputs a first two-dimensional image being captured and outputs a second two-dimensional image according to an output instruction, the second two-dimensional image having a setting different from a setting of the first two-dimensional image, an output instruction generation unit which generates the output instruction based on a shape defect ratio obtained by generating a three-dimensional model based on the second two-dimensional image outputted by the imaging unit and viewing a three-dimensional model from a viewpoint at which the first two-dimensional image is captured, and a storage unit which stores the second two-dimensional image outputted by the imaging unit.
