DISTANCE MEASURING DEVICE AND DISTANCE MEASURING METHOD
First Claim
1. A distance measuring device comprising:
- a display processor that acquires an image which includes a distance measuring object from a camera, and generates display information indicating the image;
an acceleration sensor that is provided with a device housing having the display processor and outputs a gravity acceleration component corresponding to an inclination angle of the device housing; and
a distance measuring processor that calculates an inclination angle from the gravity acceleration component that is obtained from the acceleration sensor in a state that an image indicating the measuring object is complemented in the display information generated by the display processor.
