Abstract
An image pickup device includes a first emission unit that emits a near infrared light toward a face of a driver from a front lower side of the driver, and a second emission unit that emits a near infrared light from an upper side of the driver. When a sunvisor is present at a storage position in which sunlight is not shielded, the second emission unit is disposed at a position to be covered with the sunvisor. A portion where the sunvisor present at a storage position covers the second emission unit is made of a material that shields a visible light contained in the sunlight and transmits the near infrared light.
