Abstract
A control device includes a processor including hardware. The processor acquires a surface image of a surface of an observation target and an inside image of a target portion existing inside the observation target, calculates three-dimensional coordinates of the surface from the surface image, calculates three-dimensional coordinates of the target portion from the inside image, and estimates depth information indicating a depth from the surface to the target portion based on the three-dimensional coordinates of the surface and the three-dimensional coordinates of the target portion.
