1. An information processing device, comprising:
circuitry configured to:
receive sensor data from a plurality of sensors in a plurality of regions;
determine that a specific region of the plurality of regions has a non-ideal situation based on the received sensor data, wherein
the non-ideal situation corresponds to a first motion line taken by a specific number of people in the specific region,
the first motion line is a first route followed by the specific number of people, and
the first route includes an entrance from a first door and passage of the specific number of people directly from a first sensor of the plurality of sensors to a third sensor of the plurality of sensors;
specify a specific sensor, of the plurality of sensors, in the specific region based on the determination that the specific region has the non-ideal situation;
specify a specific actuator, corresponding to the specific sensor, from a plurality of actuators arranged in the plurality of regions;
generate a control signal to control the specific actuator, such that the specific region has an ideal situation, wherein
the ideal situation corresponds to a second motion line taken by the specific number of people in the specific region,
the second motion line is a second route to be followed by the specific number of people, and
the second route includes the entrance from the first door and the passage of the specific number of people from the first sensor to the third sensor through at least one second sensor of the plurality of sensors; and
transmit the generated control signal to the specified actuator through a communication unit, such that the specific number of people in the specific region becomes uncomfortable, based on the determination that the specific region has the non-ideal situation.
