Patent ID: 8774995

Claim:
An information processing apparatus, comprising: a display; and circuitry configured to: calculate a discharge amount, of at least one first battery in a motor-driven movable body of a discharge source driven by using electric power of the at least one first battery, that is discharged to at least one second battery in a motor-driven movable body of a discharge destination driven by using electric power of the at least one second battery, based on a distance from a current location to a first charging place and on a distance that the body of the discharge source can move per unit of electric power, so that electric power remaining in the at least one first battery will allow the body of the discharge source to reach at least the first charging place after discharge of the calculated discharge amount, and provide to the display, before a discharge amount of the at least one first battery, information about at least one place to which the body of the discharge source can move after the discharge amount is discharged from the at least one first battery, using the calculated discharge amount.
