Abstract: Distance measuring is disclosed. In one example, a distance measuring device includes a ToF (time of flight) sensor, a distance calculation unit, a mode switching unit, and an estimation unit. The ToF sensor has a sensor clock that controls a photographing timing. The sensor clock is a device-specific clock different from a light source clock that controls a modulation frequency of a light emission pulse of a light source. The ToF sensor performs photographing by reflecting, on a surface of an object, emission light of the light source that emits pulse light. The distance calculation unit calculates a distance to the object based on image data captured by the ToF sensor. The estimation unit estimates the modulation frequency of the light source generated from the light source clock based on pieces of image data captured in an operation mode switched by the mode switching unit.
