Abstract
The present disclosure relates to action control device and an action control method and a program that enable more appropriate action control to be achieved. An EKF processing unit selects a self-position estimation unit used to estimate a position of a drone from a plurality of the self-position estimation units which is different in estimation accuracy on the basis of waypoints that are indexes when the drone acts, and obtains a state of the drone. Then, a navigator controls an action of the drone according to an action plan created in advance on the basis of the state of the drone. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a mission flight control device that controls a mission flight of a drone.
