  • Patent number: 11943528
    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.

  • Patent number: 11722078
    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.
