Abstract
An imaging device has a sensor unit body which moves over the region to be scanned in a prescribed direction, a plurality of linear imaging sensors each having a plurality of picture elements and each being mounted on the sensor unit body in a fashion so as not to generate gaps between any of the loci of motion along which the plurality of picture elements move, and a control unit connected to the linear imaging sensors so as to output the detected image signals whereby the images that are in region to be scanned are picked up.
