Abstract

An imaging device capable of imaging an object includes: an imaging element; an object information acquisition unit configured to acquire position information of an object existing in an imaging region of the imaging element; a target region acquisition unit configured to set a target region based on the position information of a reference object acquired by the object information acquisition unit; and a focal position controller configured to control a focal position of the imaging device so as to adjust, when an object other than the reference object exists in the target region, the focal position on the object, wherein the target region acquisition unit is further configured to set the target region based on the position information of the reference object located between a first position and a second position, and the position information is a relative position with respect to the imaging device.
