Abstract
A vehicle compound-eye camera includes: a plurality of cameras arranged to be spaced apart from each other in a predetermined direction and disposed such that respective maximum image-pickup ranges of the plurality of cameras are partially shifted from each other in the predetermined direction; and a processor configured to set an overlapping image-pickup range in which each of the plurality of cameras picks up an image of a same target object from a different viewpoint. The processor is configured to set an image-pickup range of one of the cameras disposed on one end in the predetermined direction to have a relatively wide angle. The processor is configured to set an image-pickup range of another of the cameras disposed on the other end in the predetermined direction to have a relatively narrow angle.
