Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes an acquisition unit, a connection unit, and a smoothing unit. The acquisition unit acquires route information, the route information including a route including a plurality of positions and a state parameter relating to a moving state of a mobile body when the mobile body moves along the route, the state parameter being associated with each of the positions of the route. The connection unit connects a first route included in acquired first route information and a second route included in acquired second route information to each other. The smoothing unit smooths a difference between a first state parameter associated with a first smoothing point on the first route and a second state parameter associated with a second smoothing point on the second route.

Abstract: A map used by a mobile apparatus is satisfactorily created. The map creation unit creates at least a first map and a second map on the basis of a first recognition result of a surrounding environment. The created map switching determination unit determines an end of creation of the first map and a start of creation of the second map on the basis of a second recognition result of a surrounding environment. Since the map used in the mobile apparatus is divided on the basis of the surrounding environment, management and update can be performed satisfactorily. For example, the created map switching determination unit may determine the end of creation of the first map and the start of creation of the second map further on the basis of a creation status of the map in the map creation unit or further on the basis of a user operation.

Abstract: An information comparison unit (53) (comparison unit) of an RSU (10a) (information processing apparatus) compares first data (D1) related to a positional relationship between a vehicle (V) and an object existing around the vehicle, the first data (D1) being obtained from a first sensor unit (59) that is mounted on the vehicle (V) by a vehicle information reception unit (50) (first acquisition unit) and that obtains information related to travel control of the vehicle (V), with second data (D2) related to a positional relationship regarding objects existing on a road (R), the second data (D2) being obtained by an object detection unit (52) (second acquisition unit). Subsequently a correction information generation unit (54) generates correction data (Dc) to be used for correcting an output of the first sensor unit (59) based on a comparison result of the information comparison unit (53), and then the information transmission unit (56) (transmission unit) transmits the correction data (Dc) to the vehicle (V).

Abstract: The present technology relates to a moving body and a control method capable of improving affinity of the moving body for a person and a space. A moving body according to one aspect of the present technology includes a top plate that serves as a desk at which a person performs work, a support arm that supports the top plate and that can extend and contract, and a moving unit that holds the support arm and performs movement for causing the work to be performed. Furthermore, the moving body controls a posture state including a state of the support arm and a movement state of the moving unit in accordance with a relationship with an environment state as a state of a surrounding environment and a person state as a state of the person located around, sensed by a sensor. The present technology can be applied to a movable robot.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus of the present technology includes a control unit. The control unit acquires multimodal information including sound information and non-sound information of a user and determines a topic to be presented to the user on the basis of the multimodal information.

Abstract: It is made possible to perform a data analysis and a search process using devices set definition information, which is definition information in a unit of a devices set including a plurality of devices. A data providing apparatus that generates devices set definition information, which is definition information in a unit of a devices set including a plurality of devices, and registers the devices set definition information in a database, and a data analyzing apparatus and a data using apparatus that acquire the devices set definition information from the database and perform a data analysis process or a search process to which the acquired devices set definition information is applied are included. Data analyses and search processes with the devices set definition information achieve improved processing efficiency and generation of various analysis results.

Abstract: Output settings such as an image quality, a sound volume, and a sound quality made for an apparatus that outputs an image and a sound are brought into an appropriate state for a user without placing an operation load on the user. For this purpose, an information processing device inputs, as an analysis target, a signal obtained by a sensing apparatus, and subjects analysis target data based on the input signal to analysis including user identification. Subsequently, output settings that are settings related to image output or audio output are made by using user identification information obtained by the user identification.
