1. An apparatus, comprising:
at least one processor and a memory coupled to the at least one processor storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to function as:
an acquisition unit configured to acquire captured data;
a first detection unit configured to detect a first area of an object from the data;
a second detection unit configured to detect a second area of the object from the data; and
an output unit configured to output a result of detection by the first detection unit and a result of detection by the second detection unit,
wherein, in a case where the first detection unit detects the first area in first data acquired by the acquisition unit, the second detection unit utilizes an area for detection of the second area that corresponds to the first area in the first data and is trimmed on a basis of a position and a size of the first area detected in the first data, and
wherein, in a case where the first area is detected in the first data and the first area is not detected in second data acquired by the acquisition unit after acquisition of the first data, the second detection unit utilizes an area for detection of the second area, in the second data, that corresponds to the first area detected in the first data and is trimmed on a basis of the position and the size of the first area detected in the first data.
