Abstract

Provided is an image acquisition apparatus including a first hyperspectral image sensor configured to obtain a first image, and a processor configured to process the first image obtained by the first hyperspectral image sensor, wherein the processor is further configured to extract a spectrum of each pixel of the first image obtained by the first hyperspectral image sensor, correct the spectrum by normalizing the spectrum of each pixel, distinguish an object from a background within the first image by recognizing a pattern of the spectrum of each pixel, and correct a color of the object and a color of the background by using a spatial distribution of illuminations.
