PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an illumination apparatus for emitting visible light and infrared light capable of applying infrared light to a desired direction with a simple configuration.SOLUTION: The illumination apparatus includes: a light source unit and an infrared light reflection part. The light source unit included in the illumination apparatus emits visible light and infrared light. The infrared light reflection part included in the illumination apparatus transmits the emitted visible light, and reflects the emitted infrared light in a specific direction to irradiate a subject, and allows the infrared light which is reflected by the subject in the applied and infrared light to enter into an imaging unit.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】可視光および赤外光を出射する照明装置において、簡便な構成により赤外光を所望の方向に照射する。【解決手段】照明装置は、光源部および赤外光反射部を備える。この照明装置が備える光源部は、可視光および赤外光を出射する。この照明装置が備える赤外光反射部は、その出射された可視光を透過するとともにその出射された赤外光を特定の方向に反射して被写体に照射させ、その照射された赤外光のうちのその被写体により反射される赤外光を撮像部に入射させる。【選択図】図１
