This information processing apparatus can be connected to a pressure distribution measuring apparatus that includes a pressure distribution detection sensor having a plurality of pressure sensors two-dimensionally disposed therein. The information processing apparatus is provided with: a pressure distribution acquiring unit that acquires, from the pressure distribution measuring apparatus, pressure distribution detected by means of the pressure distribution detection sensor； a load calculating unit that calculates, on the basis of the pressure distribution acquired by means of the pressure distribution acquiring unit, a load applied to the pressure distribution measuring apparatus； a threshold value determining unit that determines whether the load is over the threshold value or not； and a warning unit that issues a warning in the cases where it is determined that the load is over the threshold value by means of the threshold value determining unit.
