Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires a number of objects lining up in a queue when a target object targeted for measuring a queuing time enters the queue, a first detection unit that detects an object exiting the queue, and a measurement unit that measures, as a queuing time of the target object in the queue, a period from a time when the target object enters the queue to a time when a number of objects corresponding to the number acquired by the acquisition unit are detected by the first detection unit after the target object enters the queue.
