Abstract
A displacement detecting apparatus according to the invention comprises: a mover which moves and positions a positioning object; an imager which images an image including an imaging object which is the positioning object or an object displacing integrally with the positioning object as the positioning object is displaced; and a displacement detector which detects the imaging object from the image imaged by the imager and detects a displacement of the positioning object based on the position of the imaging object detected in the image, wherein the displacement detector obtains a displacement amount of the positioning object with respect to a predetermined reference position from a value obtained by multiplying a distance between the position of the imaging object and the reference position in the image by a coefficient determined according to size of the imaging object in the image.
