US 7774100 B2Abstract
Referring to FIG. 2, the pattern detection device 42 detects the position identifying patterns from an acquired image. Here, the pattern detection device 42 includes a position detection pattern detection part 42 a and an alignment pattern detection part 42 b. The position detection pattern detection part 42 a detects a position detection pattern, which is one of position identifying patterns, from the acquired image. Here, since the QR code is adopted as the 2D-code, the position detection pattern detection part 42 a detects a position detection pattern MP (MP1, MP2, MP3) by searching a specific pattern from the binarized image generated by the binarization part 41 b. Here, as shown in FIG. 9, the specific pattern is a pattern having a ratio of “1:1:3:1:1” as a “black-white-black-white-black” light-dark pattern. In this embodiment, the position detection pattern detection part 42 a regards the detected pattern as the position detection pattern when the detected pattern satisfies the following requirements (1) to (3).
