Abstract

Provided is an imaging control apparatus, method, and a vehicle, capable of efficiently analyzing an image. Among a short accumulation signal and a long accumulation signal of a photographed image, the short accumulation signal of a preceding frame is set to correspond to the short accumulation signal of a succeeding frame. The signal of the succeeding frame is processed by using the short accumulation signal of the preceding frame. The present technology is applicable to control imaging in an apparatus that supports driving of a vehicle by performing various processing, in each of frames of an N-frame sequence, for example, of recognizing various target objects necessary in supporting the driving of the vehicle, such as an obstacle, a guidance object, and other target objects, for example.
