Contour detecting device, printing device, contour detecting method and storage medium

1. A contour detecting device, comprising:

a display; and

a processor, wherein

the processor obtains a detection target image which is obtained by imaging a detection target, detects a contour of the detection target from the detection target image by performing shape recognition a plurality of times, the shape recognition recognizing a shape of the contour of the detection target, and causes the display to display a detection result of contour detection processing, and

in the contour detection processing, for feature points forming contours obtained by performing the shape recognition the plurality of times, variance in the shape recognition that is performed the plurality of times is calculated for each corresponding feature points, and a feature point for which a value of the calculated variance is a set value or greater is determined to be a feature point which has a low reliability,

wherein the processor causes the display to display a portion corresponding to the feature point which is determined to have the low reliability so that the portion is able to be distinguished in the contour obtained by the shape recognition.

2. The contour detecting device according to claim 1 , wherein, in the shape recognition, an initial shape is arranged at an initial position, the shape of the contour is recognized by performing fitting between the initial shape and the detection target image, and the shape recognition is performed the plurality of times while changing the initial position.

3. The contour detecting device according to claim 1 , wherein the processor causes the display to display the portion corresponding to the feature point which is determined to have the low reliability so that the portion is enlarged in the contour obtained by the shape recognition.

4. The contour detecting device according to claim 1 , further comprising a print head,

wherein the processor causes the print head to perform printing in the contour.

5. A contour detecting method, comprising:

obtaining a detection target image which is obtained by imaging a detection target;

detecting a contour of the detection target from the detection target image by performing shape recognition processing a plurality of times, the shape recognition processing recognizing a shape of the contour of the detection target; and

causing a detection result of the contour to be displayed, wherein

in the detecting of the contour, for feature points forming contours which are recognition results of the shape recognition processing, variance in the shape recognition processing that is performed the plurality of times is calculated for each corresponding feature points, and a feature point for which a value of the calculated variance is a set value or greater is determined to be a feature point which has a low reliability.

6. A non-transitory storage medium storing a program that causes a computer of a contour detecting device to perform functions comprising:

obtaining a detection target image which is obtained by imaging a detection target;

detecting a contour of the detection target from the detection target image by performing shape recognition a plurality of times, the shape recognition recognizing a shape of the contour of the detection target; and

causing a detection result of the detecting of the contour to be displayed, wherein

in the detecting of the contour, for feature points forming contours which are recognition results of the shape recognition, variance in the shape recognition that is performed the plurality of times is calculated for each corresponding feature points, and a feature point for which a value of the calculated variance is a set value or greater is determined to be a feature point which has a low reliability.
