Abstract
An apparatus configured to acquire a plurality of spectral images of an object includes at least one processor configured to execute a plurality of tasks including a selection task configured to select a recording wavelength band according to an input by a user, and a control task configured to store in a memory information on a spectral image corresponding to the recording wavelength band. The apparatus acquires the plurality of spectral images by imaging the object through a plurality of lens units each configured to form an image of the object, and a plurality of filters each of which is disposed on a corresponding one of optical axes of the plurality of lens units.
Claims14
An apparatus configured to acquire a plurality of spectral images of an object, the apparatus comprising at least one processor,
