Information processing apparatus, imaging system, and information processing method

An imaging system, comprising:

• a first sensor including a single-plate image sensor;
• a second sensor configured to sense a first direction different from a second direction of the first sensor;
• and
• an information processing apparatus, wherein the imaging system comprises at least one processor configured to:
• acquire first sensing information,
• wherein the first sensing information is obtained based on a capture of an image of a subject by the first sensor;
• acquire second sensing information sensed by the second sensor;
• adjust spectral sensitivity of a sensing area of each of the first sensor and the second sensor;
• and
• estimate spectral reflectance of the subject based on the first sensing information and the second sensing information.

An information processing method, comprising:

• by at least one processor:
• acquiring first sensing information obtained by capturing an image of a subject using a first sensor,
• wherein the first sensor includes a single-plate image sensor;
• acquiring second sensing information obtained, by sensing a first direction different from a second direction of the first sensor, using a second sensor;
• adjusting spectral sensitivity of a sensing area of each of the first sensor and the second sensor;
• and
• estimating spectral reflectance of the subject based on the first sensing information and the second sensing information.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to execute operations, the operations comprising:

• acquiring first sensing information obtained by capturing an image of a subject using a first sensor,
• wherein the first sensor includes a single-plate image sensor;
• acquiring second sensing information obtained, by sensing a first direction different from a second direction of the first sensor using a second sensor;
• adjusting spectral sensitivity of a sensing area of each of the first sensor and the second sensor;
• and
• estimating spectral reflectance of the subject based on the first sensing information and the second sensing information.
