Abstract
A distance measuring system according to an aspect of the present technology includes: two light sources outputting light having different wavelengths; a light source side optical member configured to change a direction of a part of light output from each of the two light sources; a reference time side light receiving unit on which light output by one of the two light sources, and changed in direction by the light source side optical member is incident; a distance calculation side light receiving unit on which light output by the other of the two light sources, transmitted through the light source side optical member, and reflected by an object (Obj) is incident; a reference time calculating unit; and a distance calculating unit.
