ABSTRACT:
An image generation method for distinguishing a shape of a component includes: a color image taking step (S101) of taking an image of the component in color, and a conversion step (S102, S104) of converting the color image taken in the color image taking step (S101) into a black-and-white grayscale image in which the shape of the component is shown in black-and-white grayscale.
