Abstract
A first model generated by deforming, based on the orientation of an object identified by a plurality of texture images representing a color of the object based on image capturing of a plurality of imaging devices, a base model stored in advance and representing the basic three-dimensional shape of the object is obtained. Further, a second model representing the three-dimensional shape of the object, which is generated based on a silhouette image based on image capturing of the plurality of imaging devices, is obtained. Then, an unnecessary element among elements configuring the second model is deleted based on a difference between the first model and the second model. Due to this, the accuracy of a three-dimensional model is improved.
