Abstract: A device and method for acquiring captured image data obtained by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), identifying a direction that a target appearing in the captured image data faces, outputting an approach curve used to move the UAV from a current UAV position to a UAV position closer to the face of the person based on the identified direction that the face of the person faces, where the approach curve includes an arc portion connecting the current position to a straight line portion at an approach contact point located a predetermined distance in front of the face of the person, the straight line portion connecting the approach contact point to the position closer to the face of the person.

Abstract: An information processing device is provided that includes an operation control unit which controls the operations of an autonomous mobile object that performs an action according to a recognition operation. Based on the detection of the start of teaching related to pattern recognition learning, the operation control unit instructs the autonomous mobile object to obtain information regarding the learning target that is to be learnt in a corresponding manner to a taught label. Moreover, an information processing method is provided that is implemented in a processor and that includes controlling the operations of an autonomous mobile object which performs an action according to a recognition operation. Based on the detection of the start of teaching related to pattern recognition learning, the controlling of the operations includes instructing the autonomous mobile object to obtain information regarding the learning target that is to be learnt in a corresponding manner to a taught label.
