Original Abstract Submitted
Provided is a color discrimination device capable of accurately discriminating a color of a subject and having excellent robustness and expandability. The color discrimination device includes: an image acquisition unit that acquires two or more types of images among a visible image including a visible light component obtained by imaging a subject, a reflection suppressing image in which a reflected light component is suppressed, and a reflection component image from which the reflected light component is extracted; and a color discrimination unit that discriminates a color of the subject on the basis of the two or more types of images acquired by the image acquisition unit.
