Abstract: A first imaging unit is configured to capture an image showing a subject in front. A convex reflector is located behind an imaging plane of an optical system formed by the first imaging unit and is configured to share an optical axis with the first imaging unit and mirror a subject beside the convex reflector, a convex portion of the convex reflector being oriented forward. A second imaging unit is configured to share the optical axis with the first imaging unit and capture an image mirrored by the convex reflector. An image processing unit is configured to adjust a resolution of images captured by the first and the second imaging units, obtain a mirror-reversed image from the image captured by the first imaging unit or the image captured by the second imaging unit, and blend the mirror-reversed image with the other image.

Abstract: Provided are: a correction object determining section which determines whether, on an imaging plane in image data obtained by imaging an object irradiated with diffusion light from a light source by a camera, a region regarded to be in a state where a rod-like object has been irradiated with the diffusion light exists; a measurement point calculating section which estimates a light source center position of the diffusion light based on information of a luminance distribution of the diffusion light in the image data to set it as a first measurement point; and a distance calculating section which calculates a distance between the object at the first measurement point and the camera according to triangulation based on a horizontal distance between the center of the imaging plane and the first measurement point, the positions of the camera and light source, and an imaging direction angle of the camera.
