Patent ID: 11429229

Abstract:
An image processing apparatus according to the present disclosure includes: a position detection illumination unit; an image recognition illumination unit; an illumination control unit; an imaging unit; and an image processing unit. The position detection illumination unit outputs position detection illumination light. The position detection illumination light is used for position detection on a position detection object. The image recognition illumination unit outputs image recognition illumination light. The image recognition illumination light is used for image recognition on an image recognition object. The illumination control unit controls the position detection illumination unit and the image recognition illumination unit to cause the position detection illumination light and the image recognition illumination light to be outputted at timings different from each other. The position detection illumination light and the image recognition illumination light enter the imaging unit at timings different from each other. The image processing unit determines switching between the position detection illumination light and the image recognition illumination light on the basis of luminance information regarding a captured image by the imaging unit. The image processing unit performs position detection on the position detection object on the basis of an imaging result of the imaging unit with the position detection illumination light switched on and performs image recognition on the image recognition object on the basis of an imaging result of the imaging unit with the image recognition illumination light switched on.
