Provided are an imaging device provided with an audio input/output function for videoconferencing, and a videoconferencing system, which are inexpensive to produce. An imaging device (1) provided with an audio input/output function that is used in a videoconferencing system is provided with microphones (5), a speaker (6) and an omnidirectional camera (7), and the microphones (5), the speaker (6) and the omnidirectional camera (7) are arranged at positions that are close to one another. The imaging device (1) provided with an audio input/output function is used while placed on a table around which participants participating in a videoconference sit. A person speaking at the conference speaks towards the microphones (5) and is highly likely to face the speaker in order to hear the sound of the speaker (6). Thus, the circumstances are such that the person speaking is imaged from the front by the omnidirectional camera (7). |
