Contour recognition device, contour recognition system and contour recognition method

摘要

A contour recognition device includes: a projecting unit which projects pattern light; a light quantity adjustment unit which adjusts a light quantity of the pattern light; two photographing units which capture, from different viewpoints, the target and the placement surface; a distance calculation unit which calculates a distance at every two-dimensional position; an image generation unit which generates a distance image which gradient expresses a distance from a maximum distance until a minimum distance at every two-dimensional position; and a contour extraction unit which extracts a contour of the target, in which the light quantity adjustment unit adjusts the light quantity so that the distance of at least the contour of the target cannot be calculated, and the distance of the placement surface can be calculated, and the image generation unit generates an image so that a maximum distance becomes a distance greater than the distance of the placement surface.
