Estimating the term…
A light amount control unit of an endoscope derives a photometric value in an area of an observation spot corresponding to each of angular ranges of a first light output unit and a second light output unit having different wavelength ranges based on imaging data about the observation spot output from an imaging unit, derives an amount of light from each of the first light output unit and the second light output unit based on the derived photometric value, and causes each of the first light output unit and the second light output unit to output illumination light based on the derived amount of light.
An endoscope comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium containing a program for causing a computer to execute the following processing, the computer controlling an amount of light output from each of a first light output unit disposed around an objective lens to output first illumination light for illuminating an observation spot, and a second light output unit disposed around the objective lens to output second illumination light for illuminating the observation spot in a wavelength range wider than that of the first illumination light in an angular range larger than that of the first light output unit:
An information processing method performed by a computer controlling an amount of light output from each of a first light output unit disposed around an objective lens to output first illumination light for illuminating an observation spot, and a second light output unit disposed around the objective lens to output second illumination light for illuminating the observation spot in a wavelength range wider than that of the first illumination light in an angular range larger than that of the first light output unit, the information processing method comprising:
