Abstract
An exemplary information processing apparatus performs predetermined information processing in accordance with an attitude of an input member having an imaging device and an attitude sensor. The information processing apparatus calculates a first position according to the attitude of the input member by using imaging information based on an image including a predetermined imaging target captured by the imaging device. Further, the information processing apparatus calculates a second position according to the attitude of the input member, which position is on a predetermined straight line or a predetermined plane, by using a result of detection of the attitude sensor. When the first position is calculable, the predetermined information processing is performed by using a control position based on at least the first position. When the first position is incalculable, the predetermined information processing is performed by using a control position based on at least the second position.
