Abstract
Provided is a data processing unit that analyzes detection information of a visual sensor and determines a movement route of the moving apparatus, and the data processing unit generates traveling surface shape data such as three-dimensional point cloud data that enables analysis of a shape of a traveling surface of the moving apparatus. The data processing unit selects a generation target region of the traveling surface shape data on the basis of the target movement route information of the moving apparatus and a predetermined search range region, generates the traveling surface shape data in the selection region selected, and determines a movement route such as a foot placement position of the moving apparatus with reference to the generated traveling surface shape data.
