Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily measure a distance even under conditions where a target is inconspicuous by performing arithmetic operation based upon a prescribed expression by using picture element information on the number of picture elements or scanning lines of the picked-up target on a monitor image plane and known information on the actual size, etc., of the target. CONSTITUTION:An image of the target 2 at a distance is picked up by an infrared image pickup camera 1 to obtain the monitor image plane 3 consisting of many picture elements which are arrayed regularly in the vertical and horizontal directions. Known information such as the actual size of the target 2, the horizontal visual field angle of the device 1, the total number of overall-width picture elements of the image plane 3, the elevation angle, vertical visual field angle, and fitting height of the device 1, or the total number of scanning lines of the image plane 3 is substituted in the prescribed arithmetic expression to find the distance from the device 1 to the target 2. The distance is therefore measured by easy operation even under conditions where the target is inconspicuous.
