1. A search support system comprising:
at least one camera that captures an image of an object; and
a server capable of communicating with the camera,
wherein the camera transmits, to the server, a captured image of the object and image color information indicating that the captured image is either a black-and-white image or a color image,
wherein the server
stores the captured image and the image color information in association with each other in a database, and
determines whether or not a search condition of the captured image set based on a user operation includes a color condition of at least one of white color, black color, and gray color,
wherein when it is determined that the search condition includes the color condition, the server excludes a captured image associated with the image color information indicating the black-and-white image among all captured images stored in the database from a search target, and generates and outputs a search result including a captured image that satisfies the search condition,
wherein when it is determined that the search condition does not include the color condition, the server generates and outputs a search result including a captured image that satisfies the search condition among all captured images stored in the database,
wherein the server further determines whether or not the search condition includes the color condition and a first search condition for searching for a captured image of the color image among all captured images stored in the database, and
wherein when it is determined that the search condition includes the color condition and the first search condition, the server excludes a captured image associated with the image color information indicating the black-and-white image among all captured images stored in the database from a search target, and searches for a captured image that satisfies the search condition.
