1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
a memory storing a program, and
a processor configured to execute the program to perform operations comprising:
generating image data on the basis of event data output from a first sensor including a pixel array unit in which a plurality of pixels that each detect a luminance change of incident light and output event data are arranged in a two-dimensional lattice pattern;
generating first image data of a current frame by using event data detected during an integration period including an overlap period that overlaps with at least a part of a frame period of a previous frame;
setting the overlap period to have a different length for each of areas of the first image data on the basis of a number of events for respective pixels detected during the integration period of the current frame.
