Abstract
Provided is an image area extraction method for extracting an image area of an object from a color image of obtained color image data. The image data extraction method includes converting RGB values of each pixel in the color image data into HSV values, performing threshold processing to binarize at least one of the converted S and V values of each pixel so that it will be converted into HS′V′ values, generating composite image data including an X value, a Y value, and a Z value for each pixel, the X value, the Y value, and the Z value being obtained by adding values according to predetermined one-to-one combinations between any one of an R value, a G value, and a B value and any one of an H value, an S′ value, and a V′ value, and extracting the image area using the composite image data.
