Title:
IMAGING SYSTEM, IMAGING DEVICE, AND IMAGING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/031004
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] To provide an imaging system, an imaging device and an imaging method, with which manufacturing costs etc. of an imaging device can be suppressed while precise and easy synchronization is made possible among a plurality of imaging devices. [Solution] This imaging system includes three acoustic devices that each output a mutually different reference sound, and a plurality of imaging devices that perform imaging synchronously on the basis of the reference sounds. Each of the acoustic devices has a first capturing unit for capturing the reference sounds output from the other acoustic devices, and an output unit for outputting the corresponding reference sound upon the capturing of the reference sounds from the other acoustic devices. Each of the imaging devices has: a second capturing unit for capturing each of the reference sounds; a storage unit for storing information about the relative positions of the three acoustic devices with respect to each other; and a synchronous signal generation unit that generates an imaging synchronous-signal by correcting any one of the reference sounds on the basis of the relative positions and the intervals in which each of the reference sounds is captured.
