The present technology relates to a light-shielding device and a light-shielding method which make an object that is meant to be invisible to human beings enter a state in which the object is hidden so as to be invisible to eyes, or make an object that is meant to be visible enter a state in which the object is visible to eyes in correspondence with biological information. A light-shielding wall, which partitions two spaces and includes a plurality of panels capable of being controlled to a transmitting state in which light is transmitted or a light-shielding state in which light is shielded, is used as a window, an orientation of a face of a user who is sleeping is detected as biological information, and the light-shielding wall is controlled so that the user is capable of visually recognizing light when it reaches an alarm setting time.

Light-shielding device and light-shielding method

There is provided a display control device including an image acquiring section configured to acquire a moving image shot from a viewpoint changing from moment to moment, a spatial position specifying section configured to specify a spatial position in a first frame of the moving image, and a display control section configured to display the moving image, in such a manner to maintain the spatial position in a predetermined state in a second frame after the first frame.

Display control device, display control method, and program

There is provided an imaging device, the imaging device including: a support structure configured to be mountable on a head of a user; an optical filter having a reflection surface that reflects predetermined light having a predetermined wavelength band and allows visible light to pass; and at least one first imaging unit configured to acquire a first image including at least a part of a face of the user on the basis of the predetermined light reflected by the reflection surface.

Imaging device

The present invention is an information processing apparatus which obtains identification information of an electronic device and makes communication with the electronic device via a network based on the identification information. When a portable telephone () is placed on an input display section () of a personal computer (), a reader/writer built in the personal computer () reads a telephone number of the portable telephone () stored in an RF tag built in the portable telephone (). Based on the telephone number, a telephone line is connected between the portable telephone () and the personal computer (). Data is interchanged between the portable telephone () and the personal computer () via the telephone line.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method having communication function

To perform matching between a user who provides a first person view and a user who views the first person view. An icon indicating a current position of each Body is displayed on a map of a range that is currently specified. A Ghost can select a Body to whom the Ghost desires to perform JackIn by specifying an icon in a desired position by UI operation such as a touch or click. Further, when a keyword for limiting behavior or the like is input to a search field, only Bodies extracted on the basis of the behavior are displayed. Then, when selection is settled, a JackIn request is transmitted from the Ghost to the selected Body.

Information processing device and information processing method

There is provided a signal control device including a signal output unit that outputs a signal for a vibratory device, and a signal control unit that controls the signal. Between a case where a change from a reference level to a first level is exerted on the signal and a case where a change from the first level to the reference level is exerted on the signal, magnitudes of variation amounts of acceleration per unit time generated in the vibratory device are different from each other. The signal control unit exerts the change from the reference level to the first level and the change from the first level to the reference level on the signal.

Signal control device and signal control system

A user input apparatus is provided with user input means for the user to input data or a command by using the user's human body, and use-form detection means for detecting a form in which the user uses the user input means by the user's human body. A computer connected to the user input apparatus changes the operation of the application being executed by application execution means, according to a detection result obtained by the use-form detection means. Therefore, input operations can be performed without inconvenience even if the user cannot use one hand due to another work.

User input apparatus, computer connected to user input apparatus, and control method for computer connected to user input apparatus, and storage medium

To provide an information processing system and information processing method that control display of information input with a receiver of a captured image. In a case where a first Ghost and a second Ghost receive an image (first person view) captured by a Body and first information generated in accordance with input to the first Ghost and second information generated in accordance with input to the second Ghost are transmitted to the Body, a control unitperforms control such that an integrated image obtained by integrating the first information and the second information is displayed and output to a display unit

Displaying images with integrated information

An information processing apparatus including: a display control unit configured to cause a first video to be displayed in a display area that a user visually recognizes, the first video being captured by a first imaging unit mounted on a first moving body that moves in a first space. The display control unit generates a first transition video corresponding to a viewpoint position that is moved continuously between a first viewpoint which is a viewpoint of the first imaging unit and a second viewpoint for imaging the first space.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program

In a video transmission system, a video transmission device includes circuitry configured to determine an attention position where a viewer located in a second space is estimated to pay attention to a situation in a first space, divide a range included in a recorded video of the first space into multiple regions including at least a first region having the attention position and a second region, set a first video quality for the first region and set a second video quality lower than the first video quality for the second region, generate video data in accordance with the first video quality and the second video quality, and transmit the video data to a video output device. The video output device includes circuitry configured to control a display unit using the video data such that the display unit displays a video showing the situation in the first space.

Video transmission system

To provide an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program capable of sharing a space while maintaining the degree of freedom of a visual line. An information processing device according to the present disclosure includes: a control unit configured to perform control in a manner that a display image generated based on image information which is generated through imaging of an imaging device mounted on a moving object moving in a space, imaging-device posture information which is information regarding a posture of the imaging device, and user view information which is obtained from a user manipulation device manipulated by a user and specifies a region that the user desires to view is displayed in a display region viewed by the user.

Information processing device, information processing method, and program

There is provided an image processing device to enable a user to experience a VR space in a floating state, the image processing device including: a wall configured to form a water storage space; and an image generating unit configured to generate a stereoscopic view image to be displayed on the wall toward an inside of the water storage space.
