Abstract: An information processing apparatus accepts information on a user's operation to specify a target imaging range, which is an imaging range to be attained, of an imaging apparatus that captures an image; accepts information on a user's operation to specify a moving time, which is a time to reach the target imaging range from a current imaging range of the imaging apparatus; and causes a display to display information indicating a result of comparison between the moving time and a required time required to reach the target imaging range from the current imaging range. The required time is calculated based on the current imaging range of the imaging apparatus and the target imaging range.

Abstract: A control apparatus that controls a stepping motor, comprises a determination unit configured to determine a current value to be applied to the stepping motor by looking up a first driving table, which is to be looked up when driving is to be performed in a first driving direction, and a second driving table, which is to be looked up when driving is to be performed in a second driving direction in reverse of the first driving direction. The determination unit includes an interpolation calculation unit configured to calculate the current value by interpolation calculation that looks up both the first driving table and the second driving table, in a case in which driving is to be performed in a driving direction different from a driving direction of a preceding driving operation.

Abstract: A wireless communication apparatus includes a communication unit configured to register another wireless communication apparatus and wirelessly communicate with the other wireless communication apparatus, an acquisition unit configured to acquire information indicating a type of the other wireless communication apparatus after the other wireless communication apparatus is registered, an output control unit configured to cause an output unit to output an alert based on the information indicating the type of the other wireless communication apparatus, the information being acquired by the acquisition unit, and a restriction unit configured to restrict an operation to be performed on the other wireless communication apparatus from the wireless communication apparatus in a case where a predetermined signal is not received after the output control unit has caused the output unit to output the alert.

Abstract: If a communication apparatus receives connection destination information for joining a second wireless network via a first wireless network created by the communication apparatus, the communication apparatus ends the first wireless network and attempts to join the second wireless network based on the received connection destination information. If the attempt to join the second wireless network fails, the communication apparatus re-creates the first wireless network.
