Patent Images
1. An image capture apparatus, comprising:
- a camera for capturing image data of an object to be captured;
an illumination illuminating the object to be captured using a plurality of wavelengths;
a storage unit storing a recorded image of an object to be captured;
a comparison-determination unit comparing the recorded image with obtained image data of the object to be captured and determining whether or not the image and the data match each other; and
a material determination unit determining the material of the object to be captured from the image of the object to be captured which has been obtained using the plurality of wavelengths, wherein said image data can be obtained by placing the object to be captured above the camera and the illumination.

Abstract
An image capture apparatus is placed on a desk, etc., and an object to be captured is presented above the apparatus. An illumination device can emit light of a plurality of wavelengths, and a camera captures an image of an object to be captured using different wavelengths. By processing an image using different wavelengths, the material of the object to be captured can be obtained. The captured image is compared with a recorded image stored in the image capture apparatus, etc., and used in image determination.
