ABSTRACT:
A visual recognition apparatus of the invention can acquire an image exclusive of a background of a subject of image processing, thereby rendering the image of the subject fit for the image processing. More specifically, a mirror-surfaced collar covering a retainer has a specified configuration and a specified positional relationship with a lighting element and a camera such that a light from the lighting element toward the retainer is reflected by the mirror-surfaced collar for deviation from a light path to enter the camera.
