Abstract
Provided is an information processing device including a parameter generation unit that generates a movement parameter for controlling movement of a mobile body based on a ratio between a first distance from a reference body which is a reference for the movement of the mobile body to a first position and a second distance from the mobile body to a second position, and movement of the reference body.
Claims12
An information processing device, comprising:
- a central processing unit (CPU) configured to:
- control a mobile body, in a flight mode, to reach a first height;
- acquire a command for transition of a mode of the mobile body from the flight mode to a direct piloting mode, wherein
- the acquired command comprises first information indicating a second height of a piloting device from a first position, and
- the first position is on a ground below the piloting device;
- acquire, subsequent to the acquisition of the command, second information indicating the first height of the mobile body from a second position, wherein
- the second position is on a ground below the mobile body, and
- the mobile body includes an image capturing device;
- calculate a ratio by division of the first height of the mobile body by the second height of the piloting device;
- acquire third information indicating a movement amount of the piloting device;
- generate a movement parameter by multiplication of the movement amount of the piloting device with the calculated ratio;
- control a movement amount of the mobile body in the direct piloting mode, based on the generated movement parameter;
- generate a first posture parameter based on a tilt angle and a roll angle of the piloting device;
- and
- control, based on the generated first posture parameter, a posture of the image capturing device such that a tilt angle and a roll angle of the image capturing device is same as the tilt angle and the roll angle of the piloting device.
