An information processing apparatus is provided which identifies a state of a line of sight of a user, identifies a state of a hand and fingers of the user, and controls a hand object representing the hand of the user in a virtual space, in a manner linked with the state of the hand and fingers of the user. A state of the hand object is controlled according to the state of the line of sight of the user.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program

Provided is a control apparatus connected to an operating apparatus and to an information processing apparatus. The operating apparatus receives an operation performed by a user. The information processing apparatus performs information processing based on an operation performed by the user at the operating apparatus. The control apparatus receives operation-related information indicating an operation performed by the user at the operating apparatus, acquires setting information regarding an operation content receivable by the operating apparatus, processes the received operation-related information according to the acquired setting information, and outputs the processed operation-related information to the information processing apparatus.

Information processing system, control apparatus, medium, control method, and program

A controller device to be worn on a hand of a user includes a plurality of sensor sections that detect the fingers of the user and a sensor support section for supporting the sensor sections. The sensor support section supports the sensor sections in such a manner that the distance between mutually adjacent sensor sections is changeable.

Controller device

A control apparatus controls the controller device that is mounted on a hand of a user and includes a plurality of sensors exceeding the number of fingers of the user to be detected so as to detect bending and stretching of the fingers to be detected. The control apparatus identifies a width of the hand of the user, determines, on the basis of information regarding the identified width of the hand, to which sensor among the plurality of sensors each of the fingers to be detected is assigned, and uses an output of the sensor assigned to each of the fingers to be detected to identify and output a state of bending and stretching of the corresponding finger.

Control apparatus for controller device

A controller device configured to be worn on a hand of a user includes a plurality of sensors that, in a state in which the user wears the controller device on the hand, are disposed along a virtual curved surface being projected toward a position of a thumb of the user and detect the position of the thumb of the user.

A controller device which is connected to an information processing apparatus and is to be worn on a user's hand. The controller device includes a device body to be gripped by the user, in which a sensor outputting a sensor output based on a change in a shape of a base part of the finger is disposed on the device body in a position so as to come into contact with the bases of at least some fingers of the user when the user grips the device body. The controller device receives information output from the sensor and related to the change in the shape of the base parts of the fingers of the user, and sends out the information to the connected information processing apparatus.

Information processing system, controller device, and information processing apparatus

A picked up image acquisition unit acquires a picked up image obtained by picking up an image of a region including a projection region projected by a projector. A recognition processing unit executes a recognition process of a card included in the picked up image. A projection image generation unit generates a projection image to be projected by the projector on the basis of the card recognized by the recognition processing unit. An instruction detection unit detects an instruction for the card. The recognition processing unit detects an object different from the card and provides detection information of the detected object to the instruction detection unit. The instruction detection unit then detects an instruction for the card from the detection information of the object provided thereto. The projection image generation unit generates a projection image on the basis of the instruction for the card.

Processing apparatus and projection image generation method

A processing apparatus includes a processing section acquiring a position in which a card is placed, and a rendering control section controlling projection of an image by a projection apparatus. On the basis of the position in which the card is placed, the rendering control section causes the projection apparatus to project the image associated with the card onto the card in a manner larger than the card. An image projecting method includes acquiring a position in which a card is placed, and on the basis of the position in which the card is placed, causing a projection apparatus to project an image associated with the card onto the card in a manner larger than the card.

Processing apparatus and image projecting method

A sheet bodyincludes first and second sheetsandthat transmit infrared radiation. A rear face of the first sheetis opposed to a front face of the second sheet. An information code is marked on a front or rear face of the second sheetby using an infrared absorbing material. The rear face of the first sheetand the front face of the second sheetare stuck together with a highly infrared transmitting adhesive. The front face of the first sheetis marked with a pattern using an infrared transmitting material that is visible when visible radiation is irradiated onto the pattern.
