Abstract
An illumination radiates a visible light or a near-infrared light. A lens images a light from a subject. A beam splitter disperses the visible light and the near-infrared light. A color imaging device images a reflecting light from the subject illuminated with the visible light and includes an imaging device having a red filter. A black-and-white imaging device images the near-infrared light dispersed by the beam splitter. A pixel pitch of the black-and-white imaging device that images the near-infrared light dispersed is larger than a pixel pitch of the color imaging device. A sampling position for the near-infrared light is displaced in a pixel arrangement horizontally or vertically with respect to a sampling position for red in a color image.
