Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program that allow for appropriately pulling over to a safe road shoulder when an emergency occurs during automated driving. On the basis of distance information from a depth sensor or the like, a travelable region available for a vehicle to travel is set like an occupancy map, and image attribute information is generated from an image by semantic segmentation. On the basis of the image attribute information, an evacuation space is set in the travelable region in accordance with the situation of the road surface of the travelable region, and thus an evacuation space map is created. The present disclosure can be applied to a mobile object.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program that cause a high-speed moving body to appropriately plan a trajectory. A position and distance of an object can be appropriately recognized by extracting feature points in association with a semantic label that is an object certification result by semantic segmentation, connecting feature points of the same semantic label, and forming a Delaunay mesh to form a mesh for each same object, and then a trajectory is planned. The present disclosure can be applied to a moving body.

Abstract: An aerial vehicle according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a recording unit, a detection unit, and a reproduction unit. The recording unit records a flight parameter during flight in a state in which no sensor abnormality is detected. The detection unit detects the sensor abnormality. The reproduction unit reproduces the flight parameter on the basis of the sensor abnormality detected by the detection unit.

Abstract: A mobile body (1) includes an image slide unit (11), a parallax histogram aggregation unit (13), and a miscalibration detection unit (14). The image slide unit (11) generates a slide image (SLI) obtained by sliding a first viewpoint image (VPI1) in a parallax direction. The parallax histogram aggregation unit (13) generates a parallax histogram (HG) from the slide image (SLI) and a second viewpoint image (VPI2). The miscalibration detection unit (14) determines that the miscalibration has occurred when a lower boundary value of the parallax on the histogram (HG) is smaller than the slide amount of the first viewpoint image (VPI1).

Abstract: A control apparatus (100) includes an acquisition unit (121) that acquires captured data in which an object around a moving object is captured by an imaging unit, where the moving object is one of a moving object that is irradiated with spontaneous emission light and a mobbing object that moves with a predetermined pattern, and a determination unit (122) that determines that the object is an obstacle if the captured data acquired by the acquisition unit (121) includes a specific pattern.
