1. An image processing device comprising:

  • a plurality of image pickup sections that pick-up, from respectively different positions, a same object of sensing which carries out an instructing action, and outputting image information expressing images in which the object of sensing is included;

    a position information sensing section which, by carrying out stereo matching on the plurality of image information outputted from the plurality of image pickup sections by using, as an object, two-dimensional regions, which are regions that are more narrow than a common region included commonly in each of the plurality of images expressed by the plurality of image information, and which correspond to a search space which is a three-dimensional space set in advance as a space in which the instructing action can be carried out, senses position information expressing matching positions which are positions of the object of sensing in the three-dimensional space at points corresponding to one another in the two-dimensional regions; and

    a specific position sensing section that senses, among the matching positions expressed by the position information sensed by the position information sensing section, a specific position which is a matching position which matches predetermined conditions.
