IMAGE DEVICE

Abstract

An imaging device 1 comprises: a first camera module 10 with a first camera 12 and a first irradiation unit 11, which is configured to irradiate an imaging area of ​​the first camera with infrared light; a second camera module 20 with a second camera 22 and a second irradiation unit 21, which is configured to irradiate an imaging area of ​​the second camera with infrared light; an imaging control unit 531, which is configured to output a synchronization signal in each predetermined cycle; and a timing control unit 23, 41, which is provided in a device other than the device equipped with the imaging control unit. The first camera module begins irradiation by the first irradiation unit at a time when the synchronization signal is output by the imaging control unit.When the time adjustment unit receives the synchronization signal from the imaging control unit, the time adjustment unit begins irradiation by the second irradiation unit later than the time at which irradiation by the first irradiation unit is completed according to the synchronization signal, and earlier than the time at which the next synchronization signal is received.
