Abstract:
An imaging system includes: plural imaging devices which are mounted on the same moving body, and configured to capture subjects to acquire images; and a controller configured to calculate a target white balance value common to the images acquired by the imaging devices. Each imaging device includes: a white balance calculator configured to calculate an individual white balance value of the image acquired by the imaging device; and a white balance corrector configured to correct the individual white value of the image of the subject taken by the imaging device to the target white balance value. The controller includes a weighting unit configured to individually weight the individual white balance value given from each imaging device.
