1. An opening and closing system, comprising:
- a drive unit configured to drive a closing openable member to be opened or closed, the closing openable member being provided in an opening portion of a vehicle;
an opening and closing control unit configured to control the drive unit to open or close the closing openable member;
an image capturing unit configured to capture an image of a periphery of the closing openable member; and
a detecting unit configured to detect an obstacle proximity to the closing openable member based on an image captured by the image capturing unit,wherein in response to the obstacle being detected by the detecting unit, the opening and closing control unit is configured to stop the closing openable member before the closing openable member comes into contact with the obstacle.

Abstract
An opening and closing system includes a drive unit which drives a closing openable member of a vehicle to be opened or closed, an opening and closing control unit which controls the drive unit to open or close the closing openable member, an image capturing unit which captures an image of a periphery of the closing openable member, and a detecting unit which detects an obstacle proximity to the closing openable member based on an image captured by the image capturing unit. When the detecting unit detects an obstacle, the opening and closing unit stops the closing openable member before it comes into contact with the obstacle.
