Abstract:
1. An apparatus for measuring and displaying a factor comprising: a sensing unit being movable in a plane, a curved surface, or a space where a factor to be sensed is generated or contained, and the sensing unit being configured to sense the factor; a target unit configured adjacent to the sensing unit; a photographing unit being configured to photograph the plane, the curved surface, or the space and to generate picture data of the plane, the curved surface, or the space; a sensing position recognition unit being configured to recognize simultaneously a position of the sensing unit by recognizing the target unit when the sensing unit senses the factor; a factor map data generation unit being configured to map the factor sensed in the sensing unit onto the position sensed in the sensing position recognition unit and to generate factor map data; and a display unit being configured to overlay the factor map data with the picture data and to display the factor map data overlaid with the picture data; the sensing position recognition unit configured to recognize the position of the sensing unit by recognizing at least one of a color, a size, and a shape of the target unit.
