1. An information processing device, comprising:
a central processing unit (CPU) configured to:
control a mobile body, in a flight mode, to reach a first height;
acquire a command for transition of a mode of the mobile body from the flight mode to a direct piloting mode, wherein
the acquired command comprises first information indicating a second height of a piloting device from a first position, and
the first position is on a ground below the piloting device;
acquire, subsequent to the acquisition of the command, second information indicating the first height of the mobile body from a second position, wherein
the second position is on a ground below the mobile body, and
the mobile body includes an image capturing device;
calculate a ratio by division of the first height of the mobile body by the second height of the piloting device;
acquire third information indicating a movement amount of the piloting device;
generate a movement parameter by multiplication of the movement amount of the piloting device with the calculated ratio;
control a movement amount of the mobile body in the direct piloting mode, based on the generated movement parameter;
generate a first posture parameter based on a tilt angle and a roll angle of the piloting device; and
control, based on the generated first posture parameter, a posture of the image capturing device such that a tilt angle and a roll angle of the image capturing device is same as the tilt angle and the roll angle of the piloting device.
