Model producing apparatus, model producing method, and computer-readable recording medium in which model producing program is stored

A computer-readable recording medium in which a model producing program is stored,

• wherein the model producing program produces three-dimensional model data, which is used in processing of acquiring three-dimensional information from image data obtained by imaging an object with plural cameras and of checking the acquired three-dimensional information against the three-dimensional model data to perform three-dimensional recognition to the object,
• the model producing program causing a computer to perform the steps of:
• receiving design data in which a structure of the object is defined as a combination of first elements partitioned by a boundary line;
• producing the three-dimensional model data by hierarchically defining a boundary point of a second element, a segment, and a boundary line between the second elements adjacent to each other, the second element including one or the plurality of first elements that are defined by the received design data, the segment being formed by joining the boundary points;
• and
• displaying sterically the object defined by the design data and a three-dimensional model defined by the produced three-dimensional model data side by side.
