*This abstract for appeared for patent application  number 18191559 Titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM'

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a method for calculating an evaluation value to assess the condition of an object's surface. This is done using an image processing apparatus that collects distance information between the camera and the object, as well as information about the camera itself. By analyzing this data, the apparatus determines the geometric conditions between the light source, the object, and the camera. This allows for a more accurate evaluation of the object's surface state.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An evaluation value for evaluating an object surface state is calculated in a more suitable form. An image processing apparatus acquires distance information about a distance between an image capturing apparatus and a subject, acquires image capturing apparatus information about the image capturing apparatus, and calculates a geometric condition on a positional relationship between a light source, the subject, and the image capturing apparatus based on the distance information and the image capturing apparatus information.
