Abstract:
This image capture device (100) includes: an image sensor (102); an integrated value calculating section (210) which calculates, on a frame-by-frame basis, a value of a line integral of luminance values with respect to each of a plurality of horizontal lines included in a frame; a memory (220); an average calculating section (230) which calculates a line average value by working out the average of the values of the line integral on the same horizontal line between the newest frame and a number of other frames gotten earlier than the newest one in the memory (220); a waveform data generating section (240) which generates waveform data by normalizing the value of the line integral in the memory (220) based on the value of the line integral and a line average value; and a flicker extracting section (250) which extracts information about the phase and frequency of the flicker based on the waveform data.
