Embodiment Construction

[0025] In describing the exemplary embodiments illustrated in the figures, specific terminology is employed for the sake of clarity. However, it is not intended that the disclosure of this patent specification be limited to the specific terms so selected, and it is to be understood that each specific element includes all technical equivalents that operate in a similar manner and achieve a similar result.

[0026] Referring now to the drawings, wherein like reference numerals indicate like or corresponding parts throughout the several views.

[0027] An image search device according to the present invention has a capability of searching data such as images of parts stored in a database. For example, the database stores data such as images of parts for a catalog of parts (hereinafter referred to as a parts catalog) created based on a three-dimensional model including a plurality of parts. The three-dimensional model is data expressing the shape of a three-dimensional model. Ex...

Abstract

An image searching device includes a database, a user interface, a search unit, and an output unit. The search unit includes a data management unit configured to manage data on a model to be searched and acquired from the database and create an image to be displayed on a screen of the user interface; a determination unit configured to determine and extract parts each having a boundary included in a closed region as candidate parts; a part selection unit configured to display single images of the candidate parts on the screen of the user interface to enable selection of a target part; and an image switching unit configured to create data on a part emphasis frame and switch the screen displayed on the user interface from the single images of the candidate parts to a full image in which the target part is highlighted with the part emphasis frame.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image search device configured to search for an image to be used from a database storing part images created based on a three-dimensional model including a plurality of parts, an image search method for searching an image, and a program to search for images. Background technique [0002] Recent improvements in computer performance and graphics processing technology have led to a rapid expansion of the use of three-dimensional models created by CAD (Computer Aided Design) and CG (Computer Graphics). The three-dimensional models thus created are often used to create images that can be viewed in stereo. In particular, three-dimensional models are widely used to manufacture industrial products. For example, 3D models are used to create images to display product models in parts catalogs, service manuals, and the like. Also, contents including such images are used as electronic media. [0003] Many industrial products,...
