Abstract: A water spout control device has a target object detector configured to detect a position of a target object as a detection target in a regional image according to an image information of the regional image. The regional image being generated by capturing an imaging target region including a faucet spout. A faucet spout port detector may be configured to detect a position of a faucet spout port of the faucet spout in the regional image. A determiner may be configured to determine whether to discharge water according to the position of the target object detected by the target object detector and the position of the faucet spout port detected by the faucet spout port detector.
