Abstract
A shape measurement device includes: a displacement detector configured to detect displacement of a contact; a relative movement mechanism configured to relatively move the displacement detector with respect to the measurement object, and allow the contact to trace a surface to be measured of the measurement object; a position detecting sensor configured to detect a relative position of the displacement detector with respect to the measurement object; a camera configured to image the contact, and output a captured image of the contact; and a synchronization controller configured to repetitively execute three actions in synchronization together while the relative movement is being performed by the relative movement mechanism, the actions including detection of the relative position by the position detecting sensor, detection of the displacement by the displacement detector, and imaging by the camera.
