  • Patent number: 11100699
    Abstract: In a measurement method, a processor selects one first image included in a plurality of two-dimensional images of a subject. The processor sets one of the selected first image and one second image extracted from the plurality of two-dimensional images on the basis of the selected first image as a measurement image. The processor extracts at least one third image from the plurality of two-dimensional images. The processor generates a three-dimensional shape of the subject on the basis of a position and a posture of a camera when each image is generated. The processor determines whether or not an image is suitable for measurement with respect to at least one of the first image, the measurement image, and the third image.

  • Publication number: 20200053296
    Abstract: A display control unit causes a display unit to display an image and designation point information. The designation point information indicates whether or not a position of at least one designation point included in a plurality of designation points is suitable for measurement of a subject. After position information of the at least one designation point is input to an input device, the display control unit causes the display unit to display the designation point information in only a period except a non-display period. The non-display period includes at least a portion of a period from a first timing to a second timing. The first timing is a timing at which the position information of a first designation point is input to the input device. The second timing is a timing at which the position information of a second designation point is input to the input device.
