Abstract

A spectroscopic camera according to the present disclosure includes a spectroscopic section configured by a variable wavelength interference filter that selectively transmits light at a predetermined wavelength and changes the light to transmitted light, a receiving section configured to receive sensitivity information indicating a sensitivity curve in a wavelength region of a predetermined color imaged by an RGB camera, a wavelength-table generating section configured to generate, based on the sensitivity information, a wavelength table indicating a relation between the predetermined wavelength and a transmission time, which is a time for transmitting the transmitted light, an imaging section configured to acquire a spectral image formed by the transmitted light transmitted through the spectroscopic section, and a control section configured to control the spectroscopic section and the imaging section based on the wavelength table.
