  • Publication number: 20230290113
    Abstract: An information processing device (100) includes an image acquisition unit (110), a measurement unit (172), and a recognition processing unit (173). The image acquisition unit (110) acquires an image by receiving external light by a light receiving unit. The measurement unit (172) measures a distance to a subject by using a first image based on the image acquired by the image acquisition unit in response to emission of infrared light from a light emitting unit. The recognition processing unit (173) performs subject recognition processing by using a second image based on an image acquired by the image acquisition unit (110) that has received external light without infrared light emitted from the light emitting unit.
