Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to acquire first detection data for a first height range in a predetermined region. The processor generates a first environment map based on the first detection data and acquires second detection data for a second height range greater than the first height range in the predetermined region. The processor further acquires third detection data for a third height range included in the second height range and then superimposes a projected image of the third detection data on the first environment map to generate a superimposed image. The processor sets a prohibited area for an autonomous, mobile robot in the first environment map based on the superimposed image.
