Abstract: It is possible to inhibit deterioration of extraction precision of a subject and reliably extract the subject even when colors of the subject and a background are the same or similar. An image processing device 1 includes an input unit 11 configured to input a first invisible light image of only a background in which a subject is not included and a second invisible light image in which the subject and the background are included and a subject region extraction unit 15 configured to calculate a difference between a pixel value of each pixel of the second invisible light image and a pixel value of a corresponding pixel of the first invisible light image, determine whether the pixel is in a subject region or a background region in accordance with whether the difference is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, and extract the subject region from the second invisible light image.

Abstract: A bead weaving tool includes a plate member having a planar bead mounting surface for bead placement. The plate member has a pair of thread holding portions mutually spaced across the bead mounting surface for holding a plurality of threads separately. The plate member also has a pair of thread support walls protruding from the bead mounting surface at positions close to the thread holding portions, respectively. To hook one end and the other end of the respective threads, first and second thread hanging portions are provided.

Abstract: A guiding tool for a sewing machine includes a first guiding member and a second guiding member. Each of the first guiding member and the second guiding member includes a base portion having a predetermined periphery, a guide surface facing to a side of the base portion, and a connecting portion for connection of the first guiding member and the second guiding member. The base portion includes a bottom surface provided with an attaching portion for attaching the guiding tool to an attachment surface of an object due to adhesion or suction. The guide surface of the first guiding member and the guide surface of the second guiding member are configured to be flush with each other when the first guiding member and the second guiding member are connected to each other.
