Abstract
An information processing device includes an image interface, a sensor interface, and a controller. The image interface acquires a captured image from an imaging device. The sensor interface acquires a distance distribution from a distance measurement sensor that has a detection range that overlaps at least partially with the imaging range of the imaging device. The distance measurement sensor measures a distance distribution by receiving a reflected wave of a projected wave at an object. The distance distribution includes distance values to a reflection point in each of a plurality of directions. The controller detects a subject image from the captured image, and calculates the position of a subject, which corresponds to the subject image, in the width direction based on the captured image and the distance distribution. The width direction is parallel to the horizontal direction and perpendicular to the optical axis direction of the imaging device.
