Control device and method
Provided is a control device and method for enabling image capturing under optimum image-capturing conditions. A control section corrects preset image-capturing conditions on the basis of an analysis result of an image captured by an image capturing device included in a mobile body. A driving control section controls driving of the mobile body on the basis of the corrected image-capturing conditions. The present technique is applicable to a mobile-body control system that controls the mobile body.

12 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processing unit, cause the processing unit to execute operations, the operations comprising:
correcting an image-capturing condition of a mobile body based on a fineness of a subject of an image, wherein
the mobile body includes an image capturing device, and
the image capturing device captures the image; and
changing, controlling driving of the mobile body-based on the corrected image-capturing condition, an image capturing interval between at least two image capturing points of the mobile body.
13 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 12 , further comprising changing an image-capturing altitude of the mobile body based on the corrected image-capturing condition.
14 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 12 , further comprising at least one of:
