Abstract
The present technology relates to an imaging control device and method, and a vehicle that enable distance measurement with higher accuracy. An imaging control unit controls imaging by a stereo camera system including at least a set of cameras arranged in a vertical direction, the set of cameras including at least one camera arranged to have an optical axis directed obliquely downward, and a monitoring processing unit performs monitoring processing on the basis of an image captured by the stereo camera system. For example, distance measurement processing is performed on the basis of an image captured by at least the set of cameras arranged to have at least one optical axis directed obliquely downward on a side surface of the vehicle. The present technology can be applied to driving assistance of a vehicle.
