Abstract:
Provided is a stereo image photographing device by which an overlapping area of a previously photographed image and a currently photographed image can be appropriately determined. The stereo image photographing device (1) sequentially photographs a measurement target (2) by a single camera so that the photographs overlap; wherein the stereo image photographing device (1) is provided with a photographing unit (3) which continually acquires live images (25) of the measurement target (2) corresponding to the positional movement of the camera, and photographs the measurement target (2) at an appropriate time to acquire a photographed image which is a still image; an overlapping area setting unit (6) which sets an overlapping area (23) between a previously photographed image (21) and the live image (25) on the previously photographed image (21) which is a photographed image previously photographed by the photographing unit (3); and a display unit (4) which displays the previously photographed image (21) and the live image (25) by overlapping the images at the overlapping area (23) set by the overlapping area setting unit (6), displays the previously photographed image (21) so as to extend from the overlapping area (23) in the direction opposite to the moving direction of the photographing unit (3), and displays the live image (25) so as to extend from the overlapping area (23) in the same direction as the moving direction of the photographing unit (3).
