Provided is an information processing apparatus that includes a relative velocity calculation unit that calculates, on the basis of data obtained by sensing of an operation body in chronological order, a relative velocity of a second point on the operation body with respect to a first point on the operation body, and a gesture recognition unit that recognizes a gesture of the operation body on the basis of the relative velocity.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program capable of, when accepting hand-based operation inputs from a plurality of users, performing appropriate pairing of left and right hands for each user. An image of an operation surface from above is acquired, the operation surface being configured to accept a hand-based operation input from users, left and right hands of the users and arms corresponding to the respective hands are detected from the image, a base position of one of the arms is set as a benchmark position, a base position of the arm that is closest adjacent along a periphery of the operation surface is set as a reference position when the one of the arms is a left hand, and pairing of the hand of the arm at the benchmark position and the hand of the arm at the reference position is performed. The present disclosure can be applied to an information processing system.

There is provided an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program for enabling improvement of operability in a case of performing a user operation on surfaces of various real objects. The information processing apparatus includes an operation pattern control unit configured to control an operation pattern in an operation area on a surface of a real object on the basis of information indicating a characteristic of the operation area. The operation pattern includes, for example, at least one of a method of inputting operation data in the operation area or a method of detecting the operation data. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a system using augmented reality (AR).

Information processing apparatus for controlling operation pattern

Provided is an information processing device that includes a control unit that sets an input auxiliary region based on an acquired sensing result of an operator and display a starting point of an input start within the input auxiliary region when the input start performed using the operator is detected.

Information processing device and information processing method

Provided is an information processing apparatus including a processing unit that determines an angle between at least a part of an upper limb of a user and one of a vector or a plane. The processing unit further determines whether an operation of the user is a pointing operation or a hover operation on the basis of the angle that is between at least the part of the upper limb of the user and one of the vector or the plane.

According to one embodiment, an image processing device includes a storage and an image processor. The storage stores therein an input image. The image processor segments the input image into a plurality of regions by using a first convolutional neural network (CNN), generates a first image by converting pixel values of pixels in a first region included in the regions into a first value, and performs image processing on the first image by using a second CNN to generate a second image.
