Abstract
This information processing apparatus includes an image processing unit that detects a position of a light source in image data captured by an imaging apparatus and estimates an unnecessary light generation position in the image data on the basis of the detected position of the light source. The image processing unit detects, with respect to a plurality of pieces of image data respectively captured by a plurality of imaging apparatuses having partially common fields of view, positions of light sources and estimates unnecessary light generation positions on the basis of the detected positions of the light sources and combines pieces of image data of common field-of-view portions respectively captured by the plurality of imaging apparatuses and generates image data of the unnecessary light generation position with unnecessary light removed or reduced.
