Abstract

An imaging device receives from a host device image data and commands including a normal command, an image data command associated with a parameter indicative of a data length of the image data to be processed, and a real-time command to be processed prior to the normal command. The imaging device comprises a receiver configured to receive the image data command and subsequently the parameter from the host device; and a processor configured to process the parameter without processing the real-time command, even if a data sequence identical to a byte stream of the real-time command is included in the image data, after processing the image data command.
