Abstract:
An example information processing apparatus including an infrared light emitter capable of emitting infrared light and a camera capable of at least taking an infrared light image is provided. In the information processing apparatus, when face detection has been successful with the infrared light emitted, emission of the infrared light is stopped, and a face detection process with the emission stopped is executed. As a result, when face detection has been successful, the face detection process is continued with emission of the infrared light stopped, and when face detection has been failure, the infrared light is emitted and the face detection process is continued.
