Abstract
A position measuring system includes a marker set having three or more basic markers that are known in positional relation and attached to a second area of an object which contains a first area having an acting portion and the second area continuous with the first area, an image-taking device having a two-dimensional image-taking element that takes an image of the marker set, a recording device that records the coordinate of the acting portion with respect to the marker set, and a processing device that calculates the three-dimensional position of the acting portion by using the position and angle of the marker set determined on the basis of the image of the marker set taken by the image-taking device and the coordinate of the acting portion with respect to the marker set that is recorded in the recording device.
