Abstract: An optical measuring device comprises: a lens to form an image with reflected light from a measuring object; an image sensor to receive the reflected light that has passed through the lens and generate an image representing the measuring object; a driver to drive a drive object, the drive object being at least one of the lens and the image sensor; and a controller to control the optical measuring device. The controller acquires, from the image sensor, a plurality of images generated by the image sensor successively imaging the measuring object while the driver is driving the drive object in accordance with a predetermined driving pattern, and outputs the plurality of images.

Abstract: A lens unit for focusing light onto an image pickup device, including: a frame body; a first lens group having a first optical axis and being movable between an operating position and a storing position; a bending member for bending the light along the first optical axis to a perpendicular second direction and being held movable between a bend position and a retract position to create a space for storing the first lens group; a second lens group for leading the bent light to the image pickup device, and being held movable in the second direction; a moving tube which moves the first lens group; a stationary tube fixed on the frame body and having a feed member to move the moving tube, wherein the stationary tube has an opening through which the bending member moves between the bend position and the retract position.
