EDGE DETECTION DEVICE, AN EDGE DETECTION METHOD, AND AN OBJECT HOLDING DEVICE

摘要

According to one embodiment, an edge detection device includes a light source, an imaging part, and a detector. The light source includes at least three light-emitting parts for irradiating a plurality of objects adjacent with a light. The imaging part images a surface of the objects irradiated by each of the light-emitting parts, and generates a plurality of image data of the surface. The detector detects edges of the surface imaged, based on at least two different combinations of the plurality of image data.
