Information processing device, moving body, information processing method, and program

A moving body comprising:

• circuitry configured to function as:
• an external detection unit that detects an object that is present outside the moving body;
• an internal detection unit that detects a driver inside the moving body;
• an external information detection unit that detects the object based on data detected by the external detection unit;
• an internal information detection unit that detects a direction of a driver's face based on data detected by the internal detection unit;
• a determination unit that determines whether a position of the object detected by the external information detection unit and the direction of the driver's face detected by the internal information detection unit are within 35 degrees of each other;
• and
• an output control unit that outputs an alert to the driver more strongly when the position of the object is not within 35 degrees of the direction of the driver's face, as compared to a case where the position of the object is within 35 degrees of the direction of the driver's face.

An information processing method comprising:

• detecting an object that is present outside a moving body based on data detected by an external detection unit;
• detecting a direction of a driver's face inside the moving body based on data detected by an internal detection unit;
• determining whether a position of the object and the direction of the driver's face are within 35 degrees of each other;
• and
• outputting an alert to a driver more strongly when the position of the object is not within 35 degrees of the direction of the driver's face, as compared to a case where the position of the object is within 35 degrees of the direction of the driver's face.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to carry out a method, the method comprising:

• detecting an object that is present outside a moving body based on data detected by an external detection unit;
• detecting a direction of a driver's face inside the moving body based on data detected by an internal detection unit;
• determining whether a position of the object and the direction of the driver's face are within 35 degrees of each other;
• and
• outputting an alert to a driver more strongly when the position of the object is not within 35 degrees of the direction of the driver's face, as compared to a case where the position of the object is within 35 degrees of the direction of the driver's face.
