Original Abstract Submitted
An optical sensing device includes a first point cloud data acquisition unit for acquiring first point cloud data associated with a first object and a second object that are included in a first region, a region specification unit for specifying a second region associated with the first object in the first region, a second point cloud data acquisition unit for acquiring second point cloud data associated with the first object by emitting second laser light from the light source to a plurality of second positions associated with the second region, based on second laser reflection light being reflection light of the second laser light, and a first abnormality detection unit for detecting abnormality of the first object, by using the second point cloud data.
