Abstract
A moving body support system supports a moving body that recognizes a marker arranged in a predetermined area. The moving body support system estimates brightness at a position of the marker in the predetermined area without using an image captured by a camera mounted on the moving body. The moving body support system calculates a luminance correction value of an image including the marker according to the brightness at the position of the marker. The moving body support system acquires a first image including a target marker around the moving body by using the camera. The moving body support system generates a second image by correcting luminance of the first image by using the luminance correction value for the target marker. Then, the moving body support system recognizes the target marker based on the second image.
