Abstract: An imprint device of an embodiment includes an imaging device and a controller. The controller acquires, from the imaging device, a reference image which is a captured image of the template before the imprint operation at a predetermined imprint position and an imprint image which is a captured image of the template during the imprint operation at the imprint position. The control unit acquires features based on interference fringes appearing on the template during the imprint operation from a difference image representing a difference between the reference image and the imprint image. The control unit performs processes for controlling the imprint operation based on the features.
