Abstract

A moving body includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to collect an external image of the moving body from an external sensor and collect information associated with an inner state of the moving body from an internal sensor. The processing circuitry is configured to determine whether or not to adopt the external image collected by the external sensor as a first image for estimating a position of the moving body, based on the information associated with the inner state of the moving body collected by the internal sensor. The processing circuitry is configured to estimate a position of the moving body by comparing the first image and a second image associated with a collection position of the first image.
