An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires three-dimensional information on a real object including one or more real objects. The information processing apparatus further includes a control unit that controls a method of interaction between a user and a virtual object mapped and displayed on a surface of the real object, based on the three-dimensional information on the real object.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

Disclosed herein is a pointer display device, including, a touch panel provided on a display screen of a display section, a pointer display section configured to detect a contact point in a touch operation on the touch panel and to display a pointer in an area containing the contact point, and a hotspot detection section configured to detect as a hotspot a position corresponding to one part of the pointer exclusive of the contact point.

Pointer display device, pointer display detection method, pointer display detection program and information apparatus

There is provided an information processing device capable of appropriately performing processing even in a state in which bodies are piled, the information processing device including: a detection unit that detects a feature amount of an object and an operation object in a sensing-possible region; and an attribute processing unit that decides, on the basis of the detection unit having detected a change in the feature amount of the object in a depth direction of sensing using the operation object, an attribute to be associated with the object after the change in the future amount using an attribute associated with the object before the change.

Information processing device, information processing method, and computer program

There is provided a graphical user interface that displays information on a plurality of different types of content on a single screen. The graphical user interface includes an overview display area and a detail display area. The overview display area displays an overview of the information on the content in chronological order, based on time information for the plurality of the different types of content. The detail display area displays, in greater detail, the information on the content that corresponds to the time information that is selected in the overview display area. Scrolling the information that is displayed in the overview display area causes the information on the content that is displayed in the detail display area to be scrolled.

Graphical user interface, display control device, display method, and program

An information processing apparatus includes circuitry configured to provide a user interface to a user, determine whether a predetermined object is present in an input recognition area of a sensor, and determine a region of interest within the user interface. The circuitry is further configured to determine, while the predetermined object is determined to be present in the input recognition area, whether the region of interest within the user interface changes. The circuitry is further configured to perform an operation based on whether the region of interest is determined, while the predetermined object is determined to be present in the input recognition area, to change.

There is provided an information processing apparatus including an action recognition unit that recognizes an action state of a user based on a measurement result obtained by a sensor carried by the user, an image processing unit that performs a process regarding an amount of information on an image photographed by a photographing unit based on an action state of the user recognized by the action recognition unit during photographing by the photographing unit carried by the user, and a transmission control unit that causes the image processed by the image processing unit to be transmitted to an image processing device used to perform image recognition.

Image processing apparatus and information processing method for reducing a captured image based on an action state, transmitting the image depending on blur, and displaying related information

There is provided an information processing apparatus including a processing unit configured to control combining of a captured image and an operation target image so as to generate a combined image for feeding back gesture recognition to a user. A degree of visualization of the captured image appears to be changed in the combined image.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and recording medium

An information processing includes processing circuitry configured to generate data to control a display device to superimpose on a displayed image a control object associated with a voice input, wherein the displayed image is a feedback image of a gesture operation performed by a user, and the displayed image is an image derived from a camera-captured image.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program

The present invention provides an information processing apparatus which can direct a user to a playlist different from a playlist being reproduced. There is provided the information processing apparatus including a content storage unit storing a plurality of contents therein, a playlist storage unit storing a plurality of playlists which is related to at least some of the plurality of contents, a reproducing unit sequentially reproducing a plurality of contents belonging to a first playlist in a plurality of playlists, a candidate content extracting unit extracting one or more candidate contents relating to a content being reproduced by the reproducing unit from the content storage unit, a playlist extracting unit extracting a second playlist to which the extracted candidate contents belong from the playlist storage unit, and a playlist switching unit switching a playlist to be reproduced by the reproducing unit from the first playlist into the second playlist.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method and information processing program

There is provided an image processing device including a control section configured to execute control to generate a superimposed image by superimposing on a background image a human body image that depicts at least a part of a human body and moves in response to gestural operation of a user, in order to display the superimposed image, while adjusting a display state of the superimposed image.

Device method and program for adjusting a display state of a superimposed image

Pointer display device, pointer display/detection method, pointer display/detection program and information apparatus

Disclosed herein is an information processing apparatus including: operation accepting means for accept an operation input; image storing means for storing a plurality of images; management information storing means for storing management information corresponding to the plurality of images stored in the image storing means; image drawing means for drawing, in a display area including at least an image display area, at least one of images stored in the image storing means onto the image display area in a predetermined sequence; and controlling means for, when an operation input commanding selection of an image included in the image display area has been accepted by the operation accepting means, controlling recording of the selection of the image to management information stored in the management information storing means in correspondence with the image.

Information processing apparatus, control method for use therein, and computer program

A display control apparatus includes a search unit for searching for a second content related to a first content in accordance with at least part of metadata attached to each of the first content and the second content, a generating unit for generating a three-dimensional display model, the three-dimensional display model including a first layer and a second layer, the first layer having one of a first image and a first character representing the first content arranged therewithin, and the second layer having one of a second image and a second character representing the second content arranged therewithin, and a display control unit for controlling displaying one of the first image and the first character and one of the second image and the second character using the three-dimensional display model.
