1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
circuitry configured to
track a target on a basis of at least one of a captured image that has been captured by an imaging device and non-image sensor information sensed by a sensor that senses the target, wherein the circuitry:
tracks the target on a basis of the captured image in a case where tracking can be performed on a basis of the captured image,
tracks the target only on a basis of the non-image sensor information in a case where the tracking cannot be performed on a basis of the captured image, and
tracks the target by synthesizing a trajectory of the target obtained on the basis of the non-image sensor information during a non-detection state in which the target cannot be detected based on the captured image, and a trajectory of the target detected based on the captured image during a detection state in which the target can be detected based on the captured image.
