Abstract
An imaging device includes an imaging element that receives subject light, a lens that directs, to the imaging element, the subject light from an imaging range having a predetermined angle of view in at least a first direction, an illuminator including a light source that emits illumination light toward the imaging range and a cover covering the light source, and a housing including a top plate on a plane intersecting with an optical axis of the lens and a bottom surface facing the top plate. The housing accommodates the imaging element and the illuminator. The predetermined angle of view includes a direction from the lens toward the bottom surface in an area of the predetermined angle of view in at least one direction with respect to the optical axis of the lens. The top plate includes a slope with an inclination corresponding to the predetermined angle of view. The cover in the illuminator is parallel to the slope.
