TEMPERATURE MEASURING DEVICE AND TEMPERATURE MEASURING METHOD
First Claim
1. A temperature measuring device comprising:
- a feature point choosing means for choosing a single feature point or multiple feature points from a heat image of a measurement object;
a corrected heat image generating means for generating a corrected heat image by means of performing one or more image-processing to the heat image including rotating, sliding, enlarging and reducing in such a way that the feature point(s) of the heat image is(are) superimposed on a reference feature point(s) of a reference heat image picked up in advance, on the basis of a coordinate(s) of the feature point(s) of the heat image chosen by the feature point choosing means and a coordinate(s) of the reference point(s) of the reference heat image set in advance; and
a difference heat image generating means for generating a difference image as difference between the corrected heat image and the reference heat image, with the corrected heat image generated being superimposed on the reference image in such a way that the feature point(s) of the corrected heat image is(are) superimposed on the reference feature point(s) of the reference heat image.

Abstract
Feature points (41, 42, 43) in the heat image (10) of a casting die (1) are extracted and a predetermined geometrical conversion processing is performed on the heat image (10) such that the feature points are superimposed on the reference feature points (61, 62, 63) set in a reference heat image (30) picked up previously to generate a corrected heat image (20). A difference image (40) is generated by superimposing the corrected heat image (20) and the reference heat image (30) such that the corrected feature points (51, 52, 53) in the corrected heat image (20) is superimposed on the corresponding reference feature points (61, 62, 63). With such an arrangement, a highly reliable difference image can be generated even when the imaging field of vision slips off among a plurality of heat images.

5. A temperature measuring method, comprising:
-
picking up a heat image of a measurement object; choosing a single feature point or multiple feature points from the heat image of the measurement object; generating a corrected heat image by means of performing one or more image-processing to the heat image including rotating, sliding, enlarging and reducing in such a way that the feature point(s) of the heat image is(are) superimposed on reference feature point(s) of a reference heat image picked up in advance, on the basis of a coordinate(s) of the feature point(s) of the heat image and a coordinate(s) of the reference point(s) of the reference heat image set in advance; and generating a difference image as difference between the corrected heat image and the reference heat image, with the corrected heat image generated being superimposed on the reference image in such a way that the feature point(s) of the corrected heat image is(are) superimposed on the reference feature point(s) of the reference heat image. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7)
