    摘要: An image capturing apparatus illuminates an object and captures an image of the object using the reflected light from the object. The image capturing apparatus includes an image sensor 30 for capturing an image of the object by receiving reflected light, distance-measuring light-emitting devices 52 for irradiating the object with spot light, and a control circuit 90 for driving the distance-measuring light-emitting devices, detecting the spot light positions of the distance-measuring light-emitting devices from an image captured by the image sensor 30, and obtaining the distance to the object. The image sensor 30 provided for capturing an image of the object can be used as a photodetector device for distance measurement. With this, it becomes unnecessary to separately provide a photodetector device for distance measurement, which enables miniaturization of the image capturing apparatus, as well as cost reduction.
