Abstract:
To provide a distance measuring apparatus, a distance measuring method, and an imaging apparatus that can satisfactorily measure a distance. A distance measuring apparatus includes an imaging unit capable of acquiring a plurality of images having view points different from one another and a controlling unit configured to perform control to acquire the plurality of images with the imaging unit in a state in which a patterned light is projected on any region using a projecting unit disposed in a position optically conjugate to the imaging unit and measure a distance on the basis of the plurality of images acquired by the imaging unit.

Claim (Index 12):
The distance measuring apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the controlling unit performs control to calculate a distance on the basis of a plurality of images acquired by the imaging unit in a state in which a patterned light is projected using another projecting unit disposed in a position optically conjugate to the imaging unit, and the patterned light projected by the projecting unit and the patterned light projected by the other projecting unit are different from each other in a wavelength or illuminance.
