Abstract
An illumination device irradiates a field of view with pulsed illumination light. A camera controller controls a light emission timing of the illumination device and an exposure timing of an image sensor. An image processing device generates a composite image by synthesizing a plurality of slice images output from the image sensor. The image processing device sets, as a valid image, a range that takes a local maximum value when pixels at the same position in each of the plurality of slice images are arranged in range order. The image processing device generates a pixel value at the same position in the composite image, based on a pixel value at the same position in the slice image corresponding to the valid range.
