A raindrop recognition device is configured to recognize a raindrop on a transparent panel. The raindrop recognition device includes a storage unit, an image input unit, and an image recognition unit. The storage unit stores a trained model that is a machine learning model trained using, as training data, images of the transparent panel with adhered raindrops and images of the transparent panel without adhered raindrops. Image data of the transparent panel taken by a camera is input to the input unit. The image recognition unit is configured to calculate a value representing a raindrop likeness of an object on the transparent panel in the image data by inputting the image data to the trained model. The trained model is trained by training data including images of the transparent panel with uniform background and images of the transparent panel with light source.
