A charging system for communicating with an RFID tag on a vehicle traveling with the RFID tag attached thereto, and thereby performing charging processing in relation to the vehicle. The charging system is provided with: an RFID information acquisition unit for acquiring RFID information written onto an RFID tag detected by a roadside communication device for communicating with the RFID tag; an external appearance information acquisition unit for acquiring external appearance information relating to the RFID tag or a vehicle body of the vehicle; a point computation unit for determining the respective invalidity of each of a plurality of pieces of determination information, including external appearance determination information in which the RFID information and the external appearance information are combined, and calculating points on the basis of the invalidity; and a determining unit for determining whether or not the vehicle is a fraudulent vehicle on the basis of the points.

Charging system, charging method, and program

A focusing adjustment unit changes a relative positions of an optical system and an element of a camera the imaging direction of which faces a predetermined target shooting position from a first side to a second side in an imaging direction. Each time the focusing adjustment unit changes the relative position of the optical system and the element, an evaluation unit calculates an evaluation score monotonically increasing relative to a standard deviation in an adjustment range of an image captured by the camera, the adjustment range being such that an adjustment member a pattern of a plurality of colors provided at the target shooting position comes out. A focusing position determination unit determines a focusing position of the camera based on a change of the evaluation score calculated by the evaluation unit.

An image recognition device includes an edge direction evaluation unit configured to evaluate a direction of an edge at each coordinate by assigning points to the coordinate when a deviation amount between a direction of an outline of an abundance ratio higher than a predetermined abundance ratio threshold value among directions of an outline of a character available for the vehicle number plate and the direction of the edge at each coordinate of the image is less than a predetermined deviation amount threshold value and a vehicle number plate region extraction unit configured to extract a region of the vehicle number plate from the image based on a distribution of the points assigned by the edge direction evaluation unit.
