Abstract
A designation position by an operation object is specified based on a captured image that is captured by a capturing unit and reflects distance information between the capturing unit and the operation object. The direction of the operation object is specified based on the captured image. It is determined, based on the image information of a portion corresponding to the designation position out of the captured image and the direction of the operation object, that the distance between the operation object and the target surface is smaller than a predetermined value.
