Abstract: A method for specifying a position through touch input in a screen displayed on a touch panel display. The position is specified by acquiring an initial contact position with the touch panel display, displaying a position displaying cursor in a position according to the initial contact position, displaying the position displaying cursor in the position according to the initial contact position during the period for which the contact position sensing continues until the distance from the initial contact position to the contact position reaches a predetermined distance and terminating the display of the position displaying cursor where the contact position sensing is terminated before the distance reaches the predetermined distance, and displaying the position displaying cursor in such a way that the position displaying cursor follows movement of the contact position after the distance reaches the predetermined distance.

Abstract: An image measuring apparatus includes an imager that acquires an image of a measurement target object, a touch panel display that displays the image acquired by the imager and accepts touch input operation of specifying a position in the displayed image, and an edge detector that searches for and detects an edge present in a predetermined range around the in-image specified position specified by a user's touch input operation in the image displayed on the touch panel display. When edges are found in a vicinity of the specified position, the edge detector causes a control object for selecting each of the edges to be displayed on the touch panel display not only in an aspect that prevents a wrong edge from being selected through the touch operation but in an aspect that allows visual recognition of a correspondence between each of the edges and a corresponding control object.

Abstract: An imaging system includes: an image forming device that obtains image information of an object with the focal length to the object being changed by a variable focal length lens in an optical system, so as to form an all-focused image of the object; a sensor device that detects variations in the surface level of the object in a focus direction; and a position adjustment device that adjusts the position of the object in the focus direction in accordance with the surface level variations of the object detected by the sensor device. The position adjustment device adjusts the position of the object in the focus direction in such a manner that the surface level of the object becomes closer to the center of a variable focal length range of the variable focal length lens.

Abstract: A cross-section measurement method measures a cross section of a three-dimensional object formed by an object-forming machine that laminates an object material at an object-forming point. The object-forming machine includes: a table; an object-forming head; a beam supporting the object-forming head; a driver that moves the object-forming head relative to the table along the beam; an object-former on the object-forming head that laminates the object material on the table to form the object; and an imager on the object-forming head and that captures an image of the object. The object-former and the imager are indirectly supported by the beam via the object-forming head. The method includes: controlling the driver and the object-former to form the object on the table; capturing an image of the object with the imager while the object is being formed; and measuring a cross section of the object based on the captured image.
