The tablet computer 1 includes a camera 2, a control unit 3, a touch panel display 4, and an acceleration sensor 5. The control unit 3 controls the overall operation of the tablet computer 1, and particularly includes a camera operation unit 6, a verticality display unit 7, an index part display unit 8, and an inclination angle display unit 9. . The camera operating unit 6 has a function of displaying and photographing the subject on the touch panel display 4, and the verticality display unit 7 is the camera 2 measured by the acceleration sensor 5, the touch panel display 4, or a tablet computer. 1 has a function of displaying the vertical degree of 1 in the front-rear direction and the left-right direction on the touch panel display 4, and the index part display unit 8 has a function of setting and displaying the touch position on the touch panel display 4 as the index part. The angle display unit 9 has a function of displaying the degree of distortion of the set index part on the touch panel display 4.

  A procedure for analyzing the posture of the side surface of the subject with the posture analysis apparatus 1 will be described. First, the camera operation unit 6 is activated and the side mode is selected. Then, the camera 2 is directed toward the subject, and the side surface of the subject is displayed on the touch panel display 4 as shown in FIG. At this time, the touch panel display 4 displays a long vertical guideline 10 and a short horizontal guideline 11 that vertically intersects the upper and lower portions thereof. Along the upper and lower guide lines 11 along the upper and lower sides, the subject image is adjusted. At the same time, the left and right inclinations are adjusted so that the vertical detection marker 12 displayed in the lower left part indicates vertical. The vertical detection marker 12 displays the detection result of the acceleration sensor 5 in real time. As shown in the drawing of FIG. 2, for example, when the upper part of the apparatus is tilted forward and leftward, the center circle (black circle) of the vertical detection marker 12 is displayed so as to touch the front and the left side. The angle (verticality) of the tablet computer 1 is adjusted so that the central circle is located at the center. When the vertical detection marker 12 displays vertical as shown on the right side of the drawing, the color of the shutter button 19 displayed on the lower right side is displayed darkly as shown in the drawing and can be touched. Tap to shoot. Then, as shown in FIG. 3, the side-view images of the subject along the guideline 10 and the guideline 11 are displayed on the touch panel display 4.

  On the touch panel display 4, the captured image can be moved up and down and left and right by pinching out and pinching in and up and down and left and right, so that a slight deviation from the guide lines 10 and 11 can be corrected. Next, when “save and analyze” is tapped, the index part display unit is activated, and the analysis screen shown in FIG. 4 is displayed. On the analysis screen, characters “head of head”, “ear”, “shoulder”, “waist”, “knee”, and “ankle” are displayed as the index part. “Ear” specifically indicates “ear hole”, “shoulder” indicates “deltoid muscle”, and “waist” indicates “third lumbar vertebral body”. When one of them is selected and tapped, the index site detection marker 13 appears. As shown in FIG. 5, when the index part detection marker 13 is swiped to move and released, the marker 13 disappears, the point is replaced with the tip position of the marker 13, and an image corresponding to the selected index part on the image The upper measurement point is set. As shown in FIG. 6, when all the index parts are set, the inclination angle with respect to the vertical 26 between the respective index parts (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25) is automatically measured and displayed. In FIG. 6, the vertical line 26 is displayed at the guideline 10 position.

  For example, in order to accurately set the ear canal, it is preferable to enlarge the image when designated by the index part detection marker 13, but the enlargement is performed by touching the index part detection marker 13 as shown in FIG. During this time, only the periphery of the index part detection marker 13 is enlarged. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the inclination angle between the index portions is measured when a straight line 27 passing through the deltoid 22 and the ear hole 21 is in a clockwise (CW) direction with respect to a vertical line passing through the deltoid 22. If the direction is negative or counterclockwise (CCW), the display is positive.

  Next, a procedure when the posture analysis apparatus 1 analyzes the posture of the back of the subject will be described. When analyzing the standing back of the subject, the back mode is selected. Then, the touch panel display 4 can display the long vertical guideline 10 and the short horizontal guideline 11 that intersects the upper and lower parts vertically as in the case of the side mode. The position of the camera 2 is adjusted so that the back of the examiner is along and the subject image is within the guideline 11. Further, the vertical degree of the camera 2, the touch panel display 4, or the tablet computer 1 is confirmed with the vertical detection marker 12 as in the side mode. Then, the camera 2 is held vertically and the shutter button 19 is tapped to take a picture. In this case as well, the captured image can be enlarged / reduced by pinch-out / pinch-in and moved up / down / left / right by swiping, as in the side mode. Then, when the index part display unit 8 is activated and “Save and Analyze” is tapped, the analysis screen is displayed. As the index part, “top of head”, “ear”, “shoulder”, “waist”, “elbow”, “wrist”, “knee”, “ "Heels" is displayed. “Ear” specifically indicates “earlobe”, “shoulder” specifically indicates “shoulder ridge”, and “waist” specifically indicates “iliac crest”. Then, when one of the eight index parts is selected and tapped, the index part detection marker 13 appears, so that the index part detection marker 13 is swiped to move and released, and the index part detection marker 13 disappears. A point indicating the index part is replaced at the tip position of the marker, and a measurement point on the image is set. A pair of measurement points is set on the left and right at each index part position except for the top of the head. When the index parts (28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35) are set, the inclination angle with respect to the horizontal between the respective index parts is automatically measured and displayed. Here too, only the periphery of the marker 13 is enlarged while the marker part setting marker 13 is being touched as in the side mode.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 10, the inclination angle between the index parts is measured by drawing a straight line 36 that passes through the left and right shoulder ridges 30 to obtain an inclination of the straight line 36 from the horizontal. The inclination angle is negative when the right shoulder is low and positive when the left shoulder is low.
