1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- an image capturing unit configured to capture an image including an embedded image that is printed on the basis of image data in which at least a color component has been modulated according to additional information;
an adjustment unit configured to adjust a white balance of the image captured by the image capturing unit on the basis of an adjustment value associated with the embedded image; and
a processing unit configured to process image data of the image captured by the image capturing unit whose white balance has been adjusted by the adjustment unit to read the additional information in the image captured by the image capturing unit.

Abstract
An image capturing unit captures an image including an embedded image that is printed on the basis of image data in which at least a color component has been modulated according to additional information. An adjustment unit adjusts a white balance of the image captured by the image capturing unit on the basis of an adjustment value associated with the embedded image. A processing unit processes image data of the image captured by the image capturing unit whose white balance has been adjusted by the adjustment unit to read the additional information in the image captured by the image capturing unit.

10. An information processing apparatus comprising:
-
an image capturing unit configured to capture an image including an embedded image that is printed on the basis of image data in which at least a color component has been modulated according to additional information; a light source configured to illuminate the image captured by the image capturing unit; an adjustment unit configured to adjust a white balance of the image captured by the image capturing unit, the adjustment unit having an auto white balance adjustment function that automatically adjusts a white balance according to a capturing environment of the image capturing unit; and a processing unit configured to process image data of the image captured by the image capturing unit whose white balance has been adjusted by the adjustment unit to read the additional information in the image captured by the image capturing unit, wherein the adjustment unit adjusts a white balance of the embedded image captured by the image capturing unit on the basis of an adjustment value corresponding to a color temperature of the light source, without using the auto white balance adjustment function.

13. An information processing method comprising:
-
a step of capturing an image including an embedded image that is printed on the basis of image data in which at least a color component has been modulated according to additional information; a step of adjusting a white balance of the image captured by the capturing step on the basis of an adjustment value associated with the embedded image; and a step of processing image data of the image captured by the capturing step whose white balance has been adjusted by the adjusting step, and reading the additional information in the image captured by the capturing step.

14. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program which causes a computer to execute an information processing method, the information processing method comprising:
-
a step of capturing an image including an embedded image that is printed on the basis of image data in which at least a color component has been modulated according to additional information; a step of adjusting a white balance of the image captured by the capturing step on the basis of an adjustment value associated with the embedded image; and a step of processing image data of the image captured by the capturing step whose white balance has been adjusted by the adjusting step, and reading the additional information in the image captured by the capturing step.
