1. An information processing apparatus, comprising:
a memory that stores an information processing program; and
at least one processor that executes the information processing program stored in the memory, wherein, based on execution of the information processing program, the at least one processor is configured to function as:
a detector configured to detect a marker reflected in an image obtained from a predetermined imaging space by a camera;
a first determination component configured to determine a distance from the camera to the marker detected by the detector; and
a second determination component configured to determine, in consideration of the distance determined by the first determination component, work related to an article arranged in a predetermined arrangement space as work performed by a worker to which the marker detected by the detector is attached if an object that is virtualized at a predetermined position relative to the marker detected by the detector and the predetermined arrangement space have a predetermined positional relation,
wherein
the second determination component virtualizes the object as a spherical area having a center position determined by a position of the marker detected by the detector and a size corresponding to the distance determined by the first determination component.
