Abstract
A zoom magnification calculation device associates a plurality of delay times with a plurality of zoom magnifications. The zoom magnification calculation device inputs, from the image-capturing device, i) an instruction for capturing the image of the object with one of the plurality of zoom magnifications, ii) a first relative distance from the object to the transportation vehicle at a time, iii) a moving speed of the transportation vehicle. The zoom magnification calculation device calculates, based on the inputting of the instruction using i) one of the plurality of the delay times associated with the one of the plurality of the zoom magnifications, ii) the first relative distance, and iii) the moving speed, a second relative distance in which the transportation vehicle becomes closer to the object than the first relative distance, and calculates an adjusted zoom magnification corresponding to the second relative distance.
