Abstract
An information processing apparatus according to the present technology includes an imaging unit, an inertial sensor, and a control unit. The imaging unit acquires image information. The inertial sensor acquires inertial information. The control unit estimates a self location of the information processing apparatus on the basis of the image information and the inertial information, recognizes a situation of a user with the information processing apparatus, and changes a ratio of reliability between the image information and the inertial information that are to be used for estimating the self location depending on the situation.
