Abstract

An imaging systemincludes an imaging control device, an imaging device, and a light emitting device. The imaging control deviceis provided for controlling the imaging deviceand the light emitting device, and includes an evaluation unit, a light reception adjustment unit, and a light emission adjustment unit. The evaluation unitevaluates respective brightnesses of the first image data and the second image data that are output from the imaging device. The light reception adjustment unitadjusts any of an exposure time, a diaphragm value, and a gain that are to be used when the imaging devicecaptures an image, based on a brightness evaluation result. The light emission adjustment unitcauses the light emitting deviceto emit light of either wavelength band of the first wavelength band and the second wavelength band, and adjusts a light emission intensity of the light, based on an evaluation result.
