Provided is an information processing apparatus which includes a control section that controls a conversation with a user according to a recognized situation. The control section acquires knowledge elements related to the recognized situation in terms of knowledge from knowledge sets, and determines contents of an utterance on the basis of the knowledge elements and an utterance template. Further, provided is an information processing method that includes controlling, by a processor, a conversation with a user according to a recognized situation. The controlling further includes acquiring knowledge elements related to the recognized situation in terms of knowledge from knowledge sets, and determining contents of an utterance on the basis of the knowledge elements and an utterance template.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

It is intended to allow an orientation of a mobile device observed in imaging data to be more appropriately specified. There is provided an information processing device including an acquisition unit that acquires the imaging data and a direction specification unit that analyzes the imaging data to specify the orientation of the mobile device observed in the imaging data.

Information processing device, information processing method, program, and mobile device

An information processing device is provided that includes an operation control unit which controls the operations of an autonomous mobile object that performs an action according to a recognition operation. Based on the detection of the start of teaching related to pattern recognition learning, the operation control unit instructs the autonomous mobile object to obtain information regarding the learning target that is to be learnt in a corresponding manner to a taught label. Moreover, an information processing method is provided that is implemented in a processor and that includes controlling the operations of an autonomous mobile object which performs an action according to a recognition operation. Based on the detection of the start of teaching related to pattern recognition learning, the controlling of the operations includes instructing the autonomous mobile object to obtain information regarding the learning target that is learnt in a corresponding manner to a taught label.

The present technology relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle, a drive method, and a program that make it possible to easily balance an airframe. An unmanned aerial vehicle includes: a plurality of motors that rotates a plurality of propellers; a movable part that moves a center-of-gravity position adjustment member; and a control unit that controls movement of the center-of-gravity position adjustment member by the movable part. The present technology can be applied to unmanned aerial vehicles.

Unmanned aerial vehicle and drive method

A device and method for acquiring captured image data obtained by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), identifying a direction that a target appearing in the captured image data faces, outputting an approach curve used to move the UAV from a current UAV position to a UAV position closer to the face of the person based on the identified direction that the face of the person faces, where the approach curve includes an arc portion connecting the current position to a straight line portion at an approach contact point located a predetermined distance in front of the face of the person, the straight line portion connecting the approach contact point to the position closer to the face of the person.
