Information processing apparatus and information processing method

The invention relates to an information processing apparatus and an information processing method. The information processing device calculates an occupancy rate of a pedestrian crossing in an image obtained by capturing a direction of travel of a subject, determines a crossing state of the subject to the pedestrian crossing on the basis of the calculated occupancy rate, and generates assistance information for assisting the subject crossing the pedestrian crossing on the basis of the crossing state. 本发明涉及信息处理装置和信息处理方法。信息处理装置计算对对象者的行进方向进行拍摄而得到的图像中的人行横道的占有率，基于计算出的占有率来判断对象者的向人行横道的穿越状况，并基于该穿越状况来生成对过人行横道的对象者进行辅助的辅助信息。
