Provided are an apparatus and a method that performs selection or display mode change of a virtual object to be displayed depending on a real object type in a target area to be a display area for the virtual object. Included are an object identification unit that executes identification processing of a real object in the real world, and a content display control unit that generates an AR image in which a real object and a virtual object are superimposed and displayed. The object identification unit identifies a real object in the target area to be the display area for the virtual object, and the content display control unit performs processing of selecting the virtual object to be displayed or processing of changing the display mode depending on the object identification result.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and program

An information processing device including a control unit that controls a display terminal that arranges a virtual object in a real space by using a coordinate system associated with the real space, in which the control unit determines whether to update first spatial information of a first display terminal and second spatial information of a second display terminal, which are used for determining a position of the virtual object, based on a first operation state of the first display terminal and a second operation state of the second display terminal that shares the virtual object with the first display terminal.

Information processing device, information processing method, and recording medium

An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a first acquisition section, a second acquisition section, and a determination section. The first acquisition section acquires a camera-based position indicating a position of a real object, the camera-based position being determined on the basis of a captured image of a real space in which there exists the real object. The second acquisition section acquires an output-wave-based estimation position indicating the position of the real object, the output-wave-based estimation position being determined on the basis of an output wave that is output to the real space from a position that corresponds to the real object. The determination section determines a reference position used to represent virtual content related to the real object, on the basis of the camera-based position and the output-wave-based estimation position.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

Provided is an information processing device, and an information processing method for curbing occurrence of a feeling of strangeness in augmented reality in a use environment for a plurality of people. Position information indicating the self position of an AR device that outputs an AR object that is shown to the user as if the AR object existed in real space is acquired by the AR technology, and a deviation weight which is an evaluation value indicating how easily a plurality of users recognizes that an arrangement position of the AR object is deviated from each other on the basis of position information of a plurality of the AR devices and the arrangement position of the AR object. Then, the output method of the AR object is adjusted according to the deviation weight to make it difficult to recognize occurrence of the deviation.

Information processing device and information processing method

This information processing device includes: a control device which determines whether or not a first terminal is in a first position in a real space, controls, on the basis of the determination that the first terminal is in the first position, the first terminal to start superimposing a virtual object according to the first position on the real space, determines whether or not the second terminal different from the first terminal is in the first position, and controls the second terminal to start superimposing the virtual object on the real space, on the basis of the determination that the second terminal is in the first position. The control device executes differently the start of a first operation of the virtual object by the first terminal and the start of a second operation of the virtual object by the second terminal, with respect to at least one among the display start timing and the display start position of the virtual object, and synchronizes the end of the first operation and the end of the second operation.

Provided is an apparatus that includes a voice recognition section that executes a voice recognition process on a user speech and a learning processing section that executes a process of updating a degree of confidence on the basis of an interaction made between a user and the information processing apparatus after the user speech. The degree of confidence is an evaluation value indicating the reliability of a voice recognition result of the user speech. The voice recognition section generates data on degrees of confidence in recognition of the user speech in which data plural user speech candidates based on the voice recognition result of the user speech are associated with the degrees of confidence which are evaluation values each indicating reliability of the corresponding user speech candidate.

Information processing apparatus, information processing system, and information processing method

The present technology relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program that allow authority to be delegated without bothering the user. Provided are an acquisition unit that acquires information for receiving delegation of an authority that is predetermined, a change unit that changes a level of the authority when a predetermined condition is satisfied, and a processing unit that performs a process using the authority that is predetermined. The acquisition unit acquires first information, an inquiry is made to a server using the first information to acquire second information from the server, and the authority that is predetermined is delegated by acquiring the second information. The present technology can be applied to, for example, an agent device to which the authority to access predetermined information is delegated from a user.

Method and system of passing and applying delegations of authority

An information processing apparatus includes a controller () that performs: control of displaying information in augmented reality in a preparation mode in which a real object is disposed, the information that supports disposition of the real object on the basis of prerecorded information about the real object with which a virtual object has an interaction; and control of recording disposition result information of the real object in a disposition result information database referred to in a normal mode in which the virtual object that has the interaction with the disposed real object is displayed.
