In a sound source localization system using a light emitting device for visualizing sound information, including: a light emitting device (40) including a microphone for receiving sound from a sound source (1, 2) and a light emitting means for emitting light based on the sound from the microphone; a generating section for generating light emitting information for the light emitting device (40); and a sound source localization section (60) for determining a position of the sound source based on the light emitting information from the generating section.
