An image processing device includes: a spectral reflectance calculation
unit that calculates a spectral reflectance on the basis of intensities
of reflection light and irradiation intensities; a color value
calculation unit that obtains color values based on the spectral
reflectance; a coefficient calculation unit that calculates coefficients
respectively for a plurality of predetermined eigenvectors where the
color values are expressed by a linear combination between the plurality
of predetermined eigenvectors, the coefficients, and spectral energies of
at least two types of irradiation light; and an output unit that
generates and outputs information corresponding to estimation values
within a wavelength range defined by excluding at least one of a low and
a high wavelength ranges from the wavelength range including the
wavelengths of visible light, among estimation values of the spectral
reflectances expressed by linear combination between the respective
coefficients calculated by the coefficient calculation unit and the
eigenvectors.
