Abstract

In an information processing apparatusto be installed in a vehicle, there are set a plurality of pixels by means of dividing a detection space around a vehicle into sub-divisions. One or more sensorscapture detection information DS pertaining to the state of inside of the detection space. A parameter conversion sectionproduces first parameters pertaining to an object located in the pixel on the basis of the detection information DS for each sensor, and assigns the first parameters to each pixel. The parameter integration sectionintegrates the first parameters assigned to the pixel on a per-pixel basis, and assigns to the pixel a second parameter which is the result of integration of the first parameters. A processing execution sectionperforms an adaptive task pertaining to vehicle control, through use of integration information MDconsisting of the second parameters assigned to all pixels or through use of control information DC based on the integration control information MD. As a result, processing for integrating information is made common without regard to the combination of the sensors
