Abstract:
1. An image processing apparatus which performs a process with a first image and a second image taken by a first camera and a second camera respectively, the first camera and the second camera being arranged so as to take a physical object from different directions, the image processing apparatus comprising: sequence setting means for setting a sequence of a processing item; and sequence executing means for executing the set sequence, wherein the sequence setting means provides plural items of two-dimensional image processing and at least one item of a three-dimensional measurement process as the processing item which can be set at a sequence element by selection of a user, the provided items of the two-dimensional image processing include at least one item of an on-first-image position specification process of specifying a position on a physical object in the first image, and the three-dimensional measurement process includes an on-second-image position specification process of specifying a position on a physical object in the second image, the position on the physical object in the second image corresponding to the position on the physical object in the first image which is specified in the on-first-image position specification process belonging to the same sequence as the sequence to which the on-second-image position specification process belongs to.
