Abstract
An apparatus comprises: extraction means for extracting an occluded region in which illumination irradiated onto the target object is occluded in an obtained two-dimensional image; projection means for projecting a line segment that constitutes a three-dimensional model onto the two-dimensional image based on approximate values of position/orientation of the target object; association means for associating a point that constitutes the projected line segment with a point that constitutes an edge in the two-dimensional image; determination means for determining whether the associated point that constitutes an edge in the two-dimensional image is present within the occluded region; and measurement means for measuring the position/orientation of the target object based on a distance on the two-dimensional image between the point that constitutes the projected line segment and the point that constitutes the edge, the points being associated as the pair, and a determination result.
