PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique of removing a foreign matter adhering to a camera installed in a vehicle or the like.SOLUTION: A foreign matter removal control device includes an image recognition unit which detects a foreign matter adhering to a lens of a camera from an image captured by the camera mounted on a vehicle, and a control unit which controls an air blowing unit blowing the air to the lens and a liquid injection unit injecting the liquid to the lens. The control unit performs the first removal processing of controlling the air blowing unit to blow the air or controlling the liquid injection unit to inject the liquid when the image recognition unit detects the foreign matter adhering to the lens, and performs the second removal processing different from the first removal processing and of controlling the air blowing unit to blow the air or controlling the liquid injection unit to inject the liquid when the image recognition unit detects the foreign matter adhering to the lens again after the first removal processing.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

    【課題】車両等に設置されたカメラに付着する異物を取り除く技術を提供する。【解決手段】車両に搭載されるカメラで撮影された画像から前記カメラのレンズに付着する異物を検出する画像認識部と、前記レンズへ空気を噴出する空気噴出部と、前記レンズへ液体を噴出する液体噴出部を制御する制御部とを備え、前記制御部は、前記画像認識部が前記レンズに付着する前記異物を検出した場合、前記空気噴出部を制御して前記空気を噴出させる、または、前記液体噴出部を制御して前記液体を噴出させる第1除去処理を行わせ、前記第1除去処理の後、前記画像認識部が前記レンズに付着する前記異物を再び検出した場合、前記第1除去処理とは異なる、前記空気噴出部を制御して前記空気を噴出させる、または、前記液体噴出部を制御して前記液体を噴出させる第2除去処理を行わせる、異物除去制御装置とする。【選択図】図1
