An optical biometric system (1) is characterized by being provided with: a first received light amount information acquisition unit (25) which acquires skin blood flow data relating to a skin blood flow in a wide range of the scalp of a subject by controlling the transmission/reception of light to/from a light transmission/reception unit (30) using a wide-range control table and a selection control table creation unit (24) which causes a storage unit (23) to store a selection control table for acquiring X pieces of first received light amount information (&DgrA1) selected from among N pieces of first received light amount information (&DgrA1), and in that when acquiring multiple pieces of measurement data relating to the brain activity in a predetermined range of the brain of the subject by controlling the transmission/reception of light to/from the light transmission/reception unit (30) using a control table, a light transmission/reception control unit (21) acquires skin blood flow data relating to a skin blood flow in a predetermined position of the scalp of the subject by controlling the transmission/reception of light to/from the light transmission/reception unit (30) using the selection control table.
