To provide a scanner device that can reduce a burden of an area setting person setting a monitoring area.SOLUTION: A scanner device, which sets a monitoring area MR, comprises: an acquisition unit that acquires an area setting request signal for setting the monitoring area from a remote control device; a light projection unit that projects projection light to each detection direction around the scanner device; a light reception unit that receives light including detection light having the projection light reflected or scattered by an object, and generates a light reception signal; a recognition unit that recognizes each position, in each detection direction, of a movable area setting person setting the monitoring area on the basis of the light reception signal; and an area setting unit that, in response to the acquisition of the area setting request signal by the acquisition unit, sets the monitoring area on the basis of each position in each detection direction of the area setting person recognized by the recognition unit.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】監視エリアを設定するエリア設定者の負担を低減できるスキャナ装置を提供する。【解決手段】監視エリアＭＲを設定するスキャナ装置であって、監視エリアを設定するためのエリア設定要求信号を遠隔制御装置から取得する取得部と、スキャナ装置の周囲の各検出方向に対して投光光を投光する投光部と、投光光が物体により反射又は散乱された検出光を含む光を受光して、受光信号を生成する受光部と、受光信号に基づいて、監視エリアを設定する移動可能なエリア設定者の各検出方向における各位置を認識する認識部と、取得部によるエリア設定要求信号の取得に応じて、認識部により認識されたエリア設定者の各検出方向における各位置に基づいて、監視エリアを設定するエリア設定部と、を備える。【選択図】図３
