Abstract
In a measurement device, an imaging unit generates a first image and a second image. A subject distance detection unit detects a subject distance. A motion detection unit detects an amount of motion of the imaging unit. A measurement availability determination unit determines whether or not measurement is executable by comparing the amount of motion with an allowable threshold value according to the subject distance. A measurement processing unit executes a measurement process on the basis of the first image and the second image when the measurement availability determination unit determines that the measurement is executable.
