摘要

An apparatus for measuring a three-dimensional shape of a target object by analyzing an optical pattern projected onto the target object has an optical pattern projecting device that projects the optical pattern onto a portion of a measurement surface on which the target object is placed, the optical pattern having brightness changing periodically according to a position, a first line sensor that images an optical pattern-emitted region onto which the optical pattern is projected, a second line sensor that images an optical pattern-non-emitted region onto which the optical pattern is not projected, and a processing device that calculates a phase of the optical pattern at a pixel included in an image obtained by removing background information from images taken by the first and second line sensors based on a brightness value of the pixel and a neighboring pixel in the image, and calculates height information based on the calculated phase.
