An information processing apparatus includes a processor that processes first imaging data captured by a first imaging function using visible light and second imaging data captured by a second imaging function using infrared light; and a light-emitting part that outputs infrared light toward an imaging target by the second imaging function. The processor detects a face area from an image of the first imaging data, detects the brightness of the imaging target based on the first imaging data stored in a memory, and when the brightness detected is equal to or more than a predetermined threshold value, the processor controls the output of the light-emitting part depending on whether or not the face area is detected, while when the brightness is less than the predetermined threshold value, the processor controls the output of the light-emitting part regardless of detection of the face area.
