Patent ID: 7576845

Claim:
A three-dimensional color and shape measuring device for measuring a color and a three-dimensional shape of an object to be measured based on an image signal acquired by picking up an image of the object to be measured by the same image pick-up part, the three-dimensional color and shape measuring device comprising: a correction part which is configured to convert the image signal into a color measuring image signal by a first correction in accordance with a first gray scale characteristic and to convert the image signal into a shape-measuring image signal by a second correction in accordance with a second gray scale characteristic; and a color and shape extracting part which is configured to restore a three-dimensional image of the object to be measured by using a three-dimensional model on which a three-dimensional shape of the object to be measured is restored based on the shape-measuring image signal and a color of the object to be measured restored based on the color-measuring image signal.
