IMAGING APPARATUS, IMAGING METHOD, AND PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately synchronize imaging timings for a plurality of imaging apparatuses.SOLUTION: A GPS device 23 receives a GPS signal from a GPS satellite 100, and outputs a GPS pulse in a fixed cycle according to the GPS signal received. Depending on the GPS pulse output by the GPS device 23, an imaging instructional signal generation part 40 generates an imaging start signal to transmit the signal to another imaging apparatus or receive the signal. A TG 24 generates a cyclic frame synchronization signal that keeps the timing with the GPS signal received by the GPS device 23 from a GPS satellite 100 as a base time. An imaging control part 41 determines an imaging timing to be carried out by an imaging part 17 that keeps the timing with a frame synchronization signal generated by the TG 24, when acquiring an imaging starting signal generated by the imaging starting signal generation part 42a on an imaging apparatus 10A or 10B.
