Abstract
An imaging device according to the present technology includes a light source spectral sensor that obtains a wavelength spectrum for light coming from a light source illuminating a measurement target, to detect light for each wavelength, and a multispectral camera that performs wavelength spectral imaging of the measurement target. The light source spectral sensor is capable of obtaining a spectrum of more wavelengths than those of the multispectral camera.
