1. An information processing system, comprising:
a camera that captures an image of a moving body and a vicinity of the moving body and detects a plurality of obstacles in the vicinity of the moving body based on the captured image;
a processor that determines whether an unidentified obstacle is present based on first information regarding the plurality of obstacles detected by the camera and moving body information indicating the moving body, the unidentified obstacle being included in the plurality of obstacles and not visible from the moving body;
a communicator that outputs information indicating the unidentified obstacle to the moving body when the processor determines that the unidentified obstacle is present; and
a moving body controller that controls a movement of the moving body based on the information indicating the unidentified obstacle,
wherein the processor determines that a first obstacle of the plurality of obstacles detected by the camera is the unidentified obstacle, when an obstacle of the plurality of obstacles other than the first obstacle is present between the moving body and the first obstacle, and
the processor determines that the first obstacle is the unidentified obstacle based on the moving body information, the first information and map information indicating a map of the vicinity of the moving body, when an obstacle indicated by the map information is present between the moving body and the first obstacle.
