Abstract
With the distance between a reference plane and a line light source () maintained at a first distance, the line light source () is translated in two different directions, and the position of the line light source () for each individual pixel where the pixel has been photographed from an incident ray radiated from the line light source () is stored (STEP). With the distance between the reference plane and the line light source () maintained at a second distance different from the first distance, the line light source () is translated in two different directions, and the position of the line light source () for each individual pixel where the pixel has been photographed from an incident ray radiated from the line light source () is stored (STEP). A straight line with the minimum distance to the positions of the four line light sources is deduced as the trajectory (S) of the incident ray to each pixel (STEP).
