Abstract: An action plan is generated even when the own position is unknown in order to move autonomously. A route is planned for each position constituting an own-position candidate on the basis of status of surroundings. Multiple candidates of an action plan constituting multiple action candidates are generated on the basis of the planned routes. An evaluation value is set to each of the generated multiple action plan candidates. The action plan is determined using the action plan candidates in accordance with their evaluation values. This technology is applied advantageously to multi-legged robots, flying objects, and onboard systems each controlled by an onboard computer to move autonomously.

Abstract: Provided is a self-position estimation mechanism that can absorb the influence of resetting of a position estimator. A difference between a position for each epoch and a position of a previous epoch estimated by a first estimation unit using a camera image and IMU information and a velocity and an acceleration for each epoch estimated by a second estimation unit using the camera image and the IMU information are acquired. Whether the difference acquired for each epoch is an outlier is tested on the basis of a threshold and whether the velocity and acceleration acquired for each epoch is an outlier is tested on the basis of a threshold. A self-position is estimated using the difference for each epoch and the velocity and acceleration for each epoch after the outlier is removed.
