Abstract: The object detection device extracts a plurality of predetermined features from an image in which a target object is represented, calculates an entire coincidence degree between the plurality of predetermined features set for an entire model pattern of the target object and the plurality of predetermined features extracted from a corresponding region on the image while changing a relative positional relationship between the image and the model pattern, and calculates, for each partial region including a part of the model pattern, a partial coincidence degree between the predetermined features included in the partial region and the predetermined features extracted from a region corresponding to the partial region on the image. Then, the object detection device determines whether or not the target object is represented in the region on the image corresponding to the model pattern based on the entire coincidence degree and the partial coincidence degree.

Abstract: Provided is a programming device capable of reducing the load of an operator that creates a control program including a command corresponding to a function of an imaging device. Provided is a programming device for programming industrial machinery, the programming device including: a command generation unit that acquires information regarding an imaging device connected to a control device of the industrial machinery and that, on the basis of the acquired information, generates an icon or command statement expressing a command using an image acquired by the imaging device; and a command display unit that displays the generated icon or command statement on a display screen.

Abstract: Provided is a coordinate system setting system with which it is possible to easily set a coordinate system used in control of an industrial machine. A coordinate system setting system 1 comprises: a calibrated camera 4; a calibration data storage unit 12 that stores, in advance, calibration data obtained when the camera 4 was calibrated; an image processing unit 11 that processes a captured image obtained upon imaging a calibration jig J disposed at a position for which a coordinate system is to be set by the camera 4; and a coordinate system setting unit 21 that uses the result of image processing performed by the image processing unit 11 to set a coordinate system used in controlling a robot 2.

Abstract: The present invention makes it possible to create a vision detection program without a sense of incongruity, even for an operator who is used to robot programming but not used to vision detection programming. Provided is a program editing device for editing a motion program for a robot, the program editing device including: a program editing unit which receives common input operations with respect to a first type of icon that corresponds to commands relating to control of the robot and a second type of icon that corresponds to commands relating to image capture by a visual sensor and to processing of captured images; and a program generation unit which generates the motion program in accordance with the first type of icon and second type of icon subjected to editing.

Abstract: Provided is an image processing device with which it is possible to automate the setting of a detection parameter that is suitable for obtaining a desired detection result.
