Abstract
An imaging system includes: an imaging unit that captures an image of an eye area of a target person by using an image sensor that allows imaging without saturating observed light; an acquisition unit that obtains, from the image, a first information about a first area that does not include reflection of light by an eyeglass lens of the target person, and a second information about a second area that includes the reflection of the light; and a correction unit that corrects the second information so as to reduce an influence of the reflection, on the basis of the first information. According to such an imaging system, it is possible to properly capture the iris image even when the target person is wearing eyeglasses.
