Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and sensing system

An information processing apparatus comprising:

• a memory storing a program, and
• at least one processor configured to execute the program to perform operations comprising:
• performing recognition processing based upon a point cloud output from a photodetection ranging unit using a frequency modulated continuous wave to determine a designated area in a real object, the point cloud including velocity information and three-dimensional coordinates of the point cloud based upon a reception signal reflected by an object and received;
• outputting three-dimensional recognition information including information indicating the determined designated area;
• correcting three-dimensional coordinates of the designated area in the point cloud based upon the three-dimensional recognition information;
• and
• correcting three-dimensional coordinates of the designated area with respect to a direction indicated by the designated area and a plane intersecting the direction,
• wherein the real object is a person, and the designated area is an arm or a foot of the person.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program, the program being executable by a processor to perform operations comprising:

• performing recognition processing based upon a point cloud output from a photodetection ranging unit using a frequency modulated continuous wave to determine a designated area in a real object, the point cloud including velocity information and three-dimensional coordinates of the point cloud based upon a reception signal reflected by an object and received;
• outputting three-dimensional recognition information including information indicating the determined designated area;
• correcting three-dimensional coordinates of the designated area in the point cloud based upon the three-dimensional recognition information;
• and
• generating a display signal for displaying a virtual object based upon the three-dimensional coordinates of the corrected designated area.
