An information processing apparatus that acquires first posture information corresponding to the information processing apparatus and a first distance coordinate corresponding to the information processing apparatus, and second posture information corresponding to another information processing apparatus and a second distance coordinate corresponding to the another information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus then calculates an object's position in a virtual space based on the first and second posture information and the first and second distance coordinates.

Information processing device, information processing method, and program

Provided is an information processing apparatus including an image acquisition unit for acquiring a real space image including an image of another apparatus, a coordinate system generation unit for generating a spatial coordinate system of the real space image acquired by the image acquisition unit, and a transmission unit for transmitting spatial information constituting the spatial coordinate system generated by the coordinate system generation unit to the other apparatus sharing the spatial coordinate system.

There is provided an information processing device includes a virtual space recognition unit for analyzing 3D space structure of a real space to recognize a virtual space, a storage unit for storing an object to be arranged in the virtual space, a display unit for displaying the object arranged in the virtual space, on a display device, a detection unit for detecting device information of the display device, and an execution unit for executing predetermined processing toward the object based on the device information.

An information processing apparatus includes an image acquisition unit for acquiring a real-world image, a space analysis unit for analyzing a three-dimensional space structure of the real-world image, a scale reference detection unit for detecting a length, in a three-dimensional space, of an object to be a scale reference that is included in the real-world image, and a scale determination unit for determining, from the length of the object detected by the scale reference detection unit, a scale of the three-dimensional space.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program for generating an image including virtual information whose size has been adjusted

There is provided an information processing device includes a virtual space recognition unit for analyzing 3D space structure of a real space to recognize a virtual space, a storage unit for storing an object to be arranged in the virtual space, a display unit for making a display unit display the object arranged in the virtual space, a direction of gravitational force detection unit for detecting a direction of gravitational force of a real space, and a direction of gravitational force reflection unit for reflecting the direction of gravitational force detected by the detection unit in the virtual space.

A first image pickup means picks up an image of a real space, to thereby obtain a first background image. A first positional relationship estimating unit estimates, in a case where the first background image includes a first marker image being an image of a marker previously registered and located in the real space, a first positional relationship being a spatial positional relationship of the first image pickup means to the marker based on the first marker image, and estimates, in a case where the first background image fails to include the first marker image, the first positional relationship based on a displacement of a feature point extracted from the first background image. An image generating unit generates a first additional image based on the first positional relationship, and synthesizes the first additional image and the first background image, to thereby generate a synthetic image.

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

A training apparatus includes a training device, an operation detection unit, a training condition calculation unit, an image display processing unit, and a display unit. The training device has a movable unit which is displaced according to an action of a trainee who is training with reference to a training image. The operation detection unit detects a displacement of the movable unit during training. The training condition calculation unit calculates a training condition of next time on the basis of a detection result from the operation detection unit in training immediately before and a training condition immediately before. The image display processing unit prepares, on the basis of the training condition obtained by the training condition calculation unit, training image data which changes according to the detection result from the operation detection unit in training under the obtained training condition. The display unit displays the training image in accordance with the training image data prepared by the image display processing unit.

Training apparatus

A fixture for supporting a pole in a gymnasium floor comprises a frame on which a pair of hinged lid members are supported. The hinged lid members are each formed with a flat rectangular piece and a piece comprising a semicircular recess and are slidable along tracks so that while the upper surface of the semicircular recessed pieces are flush with the floor the rectangular pieces hang vertically beneath the floor and while the rectangular pieces are flush with the floor the semicircular recessed pieces hang vertically beneath the floor. The semicircular pieces cooperate to define an opening through which the pole can be received and the rectangular pieces cooperative to cover the opening. With this arrangement, no part of the fitting protrudes from the floor so as to pose a hazard.
