  • Publication number: 20220036043
    Abstract: The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, a program, a mobile-object control apparatus, and a mobile object that make it possible to improve the accuracy in recognizing a target object. An information processing apparatus includes a geometric transformation section that transforms at least one of a captured image or a sensor image to match coordinate systems of the captured image and the sensor image, the captured image being obtained by an image sensor, the sensor image indicating a sensing result of a sensor of which a sensing range at least partially overlaps a sensing range of the image sensor; and an object recognition section that performs processing of recognizing a target object on the basis of the captured image and sensor image of which the coordinate systems have been matched to each other. The present technology is applicable to, for example, a system used to recognize a target object around a vehicle.

  • Patent number: 8538683
    Abstract: A height output device includes a GPS processing unit that calculates a GPS height of a moving body based on GPS signals, an atmospheric pressure measurement unit that measures atmospheric pressure, a determination unit that determines reliability of the GPS height calculated by the GPS processing unit, and an output unit that outputs an absolute height of the moving body depending on the reliability determined by the determination unit. When the reliability satisfies a predetermined output reference, the output unit outputs the latest GPS height calculated by the GPS processing unit, as the absolute height of the moving body, and when the reliability does not satisfy the output reference, the output unit outputs a height, which is calculated by using a past output value of the absolute value and the atmospheric pressure measured by the atmospheric pressure measurement unit, as the absolute height of the moving body.
