Abstract
In a control system, an image data acquisition unit acquires thermal image data from an infrared sensor. A statistical data generation unit generates statistical data about pixel values from the thermal image data. A calibration control unit controls, based on an environmental temperature, calibration for a sensor output value of the thermal image data in a state where a shutter is closed, the shutter blocking light incident on the infrared sensor. An image data output unit outputs image data related to the thermal image resulting from the calibration. In a case where the pixel values included in the statistical data include an upper limit value or a lower limit value, the upper limit value or the lower limit value being set in advance, the calibration control unit controls the calibration to be performed for an adjustment value which results from shift adjustment based on a shift amount set in advance.
