Information processing device and information processing method

An information processor for calculating, for a robot hand including a plurality of fingers, a gripping pose at which the robot hand grips a target object, the information processor comprising:

• a candidate single-finger placement position detector configured to detect, based on three-dimensional measurement data obtained through three-dimensional measurement of the target object and hand shape data about a shape of the robot hand, candidate placement positions for each of the plurality of fingers of the robot hand;
• a multi-finger combination searcher configured to search for, among the candidate placement positions for each of the plurality of fingers, a combination of candidate placement positions to allow gripping of the target object;
• and
• a gripping pose calculator configured to calculate, based on the combination of candidate placement positions for each of the plurality of fingers, a gripping pose at which the robot hand grips the target object,
• wherein the information processor is configured to output the calculated gripping pose to a controller controlling the robot hand.
