Image processing device

Abstract

The parameters of image processing are adjusted for detecting a workpiece, by quantifying the quality of the parameters of the image processing. This image processing device automatically adjusts detection parameters that are used in image processing for detecting an imaging object. The image processing device includes a detection parameter generation unit that generates detection parameter combinations, an imaging condition setting unit that sets imaging conditions for each of the detection parameter combinations, a detectability determination unit that determines whether or not the imaging object is detectable for each combination of detection parameters and imaging conditions, an imaging range calculation unit that calculates a range of imaging conditions under which the imaging object is determined, by the detectability determination unit, to have been detected, and a parameter determination unit that determines a detection parameter combination for which the calculated range of imaging conditions is the widest.
