Abstract
Provided is an information processing apparatus configured to acquire more optical coherence tomographic images in a smaller amount of imaging time while suppressing reduction in longitudinal resolution. The information processing apparatus includes: a sampling unit configured to sample interference light between return light from an object to be inspected which has been scanned with measuring light and reference light corresponding to the measuring light; a data extracting unit configured to partially extract, from an output from the sampling unit, data included in the output at a longer sampling interval than an interval for sampling the interference light by the sampling unit so as to generate a plurality of data sets; and a forming unit configured to form tomographic information on the object to be inspected based on the generated plurality of data sets.
