Claim 12:
13. A position detecting method comprising:
an object shape extracting process of extracting an object shape from a three-dimensional shape obtained by a three-dimensional measuring device, and acquiring the object shape and a position of the object;
an identification information acquisition process of acquiring target object identification information related to a target object, which is one of a plurality of the objects;
a position estimation process of outputting position estimation information that estimates the position of the target object; and
an identification information associating process of associating the target object identification information with the object shape by using the position of the object acquired by the object shape extraction process and the position estimation information, wherein the identification information associating process further includes associating the target object identification information with a target object shape of the target object, based on a correlation between a velocity vector of the target object obtained from the position estimation information and a velocity vector of the object obtained from output of the object shape extracting process.
