Abstract

A control apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires captured data in which an object around a moving object is captured by an imaging unit, where the moving object is one of a moving object that is irradiated with spontaneous emission light and a moving object that moves with a predetermined pattern, and a determination unit that determines that the object is an obstacle if the captured data acquired by the acquisition unit includes a specific pattern.
