Abstract

A position measurement device includes a position measurement unit configured to irradiate measurement light to a reflective element, receive reflected light reflected by the reflective element, and acquire position information of the reflective element in a three-dimensional space and a reference position measurement unit configured to irradiate reference measurement light to at least one reference reflective element, receive reference reflected light reflected by the reference reflective element, and acquire position information of the reference reflective element in a three-dimensional space. The position information of the reflective element acquired by the position measurement unit is corrected using the position information of the reference reflective element measured by the reference position measurement unit.
