A position detecting system, for detecting the position of a substrate having a surface, with respect to a first direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate and a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, by use of a mark formed on the substrate and having an optical power, is disclosed. The system includes a directing device for directing a radiation beam to the mark so that the radiation beam is deflected by the mark; a sensor for receiving the radiation beam deflected by the mark, wherein the position of the radiation beam incident on the sensor is shiftable in a third direction in accordance with the position of the substrate with respect to the first direction and also is shiftable in a fourth direction, different from the third direction, in accordance with the position of the substrate with respect to the second direction; and a detecting device for detecting the position of the substrate with respect to the first and second directions on the basis of an output of the sensor corresponding to the position of incidence of the radiation beam upon the sensor.
摘要:
A process for producing an optical element wherein an optical molding is formed by using a mold and thereafter released from the mold by supplying a gas to the boundary between the mold surface and the optical molding. In the process, no localized external force is applied to the optical molding during the release thereof, and therefore undesirable deformation or flaws of the optical molding are not caused.

An information processing apparatus for matching a position and/or orientation of a measurement object with that of a model of the measurement object includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire a captured image of the measurement object, a calculation unit configured to calculate information indicating a surface shape of the measurement object based on the captured image, and a limitation unit configured to limit a position and/or orientation of the model based on the information indicating the surface shape.
摘要:
A classification result is stored in advance. At the time of identification, classification is performed at a high speed based on the stored classification result. In pre-classification, classification is performed divisionally in two stages. In the first classification, a plurality of representative vectors are generated from the classification result using a fast executable method. In the second classification, the created representative vectors are classified, and the result is stored in a lookup table. When an identification target image is input, the classification result can be reflected at a high speed by using the lookup table.

摘要:
Images sensed through object lenses 100R and 100L, having zoom lenses, with image sensors 102R and 102L are processed by image signal processors 104R and 104L, and an image of an object in each of the sensed images is separated from a background image on the basis of the processed image signals. The separated image signals representing the image of the object enter the image processor 220, where a three-dimensional shape of the object is extracted on the basis of parameters used upon sensing the images. The parameters are automatically adjusted so that images of the object fall within the both image sensing areas of the image sensors 102R and 102L and that they fall within the both focal depths of the image sensors 102R and 102L.
