Abstract

There is provided an imaging technology using a speckle, which is capable of eliminating cross-talk. In the present technology, there is provided an imaging system including: a first light source that irradiates an imaging target with coherent light of a first wavelength band; a second light source that irradiates the imaging target with incoherent light of a second wavelength band; an image capturing unit that captures a speckle image and a non-speckle image, the speckle image being obtained from scattered light of the imaging target irradiated with the coherent light, the non-speckle image being obtained from reflected light of the imaging target irradiated with the incoherent light; and a cross-talk elimination unit that eliminates cross-talk that occurs between the captured speckle image and the captured non-speckle image.
