An on-board camera device includes a camera unit, a hood member, a thermally conductive member, a heater device, and a temperature measurement element. The camera unit captures an image of an ambient environment through a window glass of a vehicle. The hood member blocks an unnecessary light beam from outside and suppresses background reflection on the window glass. The thermally conductive member is fixed to the hood member to thermally contact with the window glass. The heater device contacts with the thermally conductive member and removes dew condensation and fog adhering to the window glass. The temperature measurement element is provided at the heater device and partly contacts with the thermally conductive member. The temperature measurement element detects a temperature state of the heater device during operation of the heater device and a temperature state of the window glass through the thermally conductive member during non-operation of the heater device.

When encoding each element in numeral string data, a code-string data creating unit creates code string data by assigning a code to a focused element to be encoded based on a magnitude relation between the focused element and an element adjacent to the focused element. An control unit stores primary data and the code string data as registration information in an associated manner into a storage unit. When searching for the primary data, a data extracting unit and the code-string data creating unit create code string data from image data, and a searching unit searches data stored in the storage unit based on the created code string data as search information for data having registration information that matches the search information.

An upper side plate portion () of an upper case comprises an insertion hole (C) for a setscrew () and a resilient deformable portion () having a rib (). When the upper case is attached to a lower case using the setscrew (), the restoring force of resilient deformation of the resilient deformable portion () crimps the rib () to a lower side plate () of the lower case with a pressure force (W). Accordingly, only the attachment of both cases with the setscrew () crimps the rib () of the upper case to the lower side plate () of the lower case with the pressure force (W) and reduces the surface resistance value in a contact portion with the rib () in the lower side plate () below a predetermined value. Thus, the conduction between the upper case and the lower case can be easily and reliably ensured.
