A remote operation apparatus is configured to operate in response to a control signal transmitted via a network from a user apparatus connected to a display unit and includes a movable unit capable of changing a posture. The remote operation apparatus includes: a video data acquisition unit configured to acquire video data acquired from a camera disposed in the movable unit; a motion detection data acquisition unit configured to acquire, through a motion sensor, motion detection data representing a change in the posture of the movable unit; and a data transmission unit configured to transmit the acquired video data and the acquired motion detection data to the user apparatus via the network.

Remote control system, and remote operation apparatus, video image processing apparatus, and computer-readable medium

In a robot () in a remote location, an action scene of the robot () is determined based on a feature amount derived from its position and motion detection data and video data, and a video parameter or an imaging mode corresponding to the determined action scene is selected. Then, a process of adjusting the selected video parameter for the video data or a process of setting the selected imaging mode to the camera is performed, and the processed video data is transmitted to the information processing apparatus () on the user side via the network () and displayed on the HMD ().

Remote operation apparatus for communication with a user

A video display control apparatus receives a video content generated by a control target device in accordance with a control operation of a user via a network and displays the received video content on a head mount display attached to the user. The video display control apparatus includes a detection unit that detects a change in a direction of face or line of sight related to the control operation and a first display control unit that generates an auxiliary pattern in which at least one of a display position and a display form changes so as to follow the detected change in the direction of the face or the line of sight related to the control operation, superimposes the auxiliary pattern on the video content, and displays the video content on the head mount display.

Video display control apparatus, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

A load distribution apparatus connected, via a network, to a plurality of relay apparatuses that relay communication performed by a terminal, and to the terminal, including: storage means configured to store relay apparatus identifiers that identify each of the plurality of relay apparatuses, installation site information that indicates installation sites of each of the plurality of relay apparatuses, and load information that indicates loads of each of the plurality of relay apparatuses; load management means configured to collect the load information from each of the plurality of relay apparatuses to store the load information in the storage means; selection means configured, when receiving a request from the terminal, to select a relay apparatus for relaying communication performed by the terminal from among the plurality of relay apparatuses based on the installation site information or the load information; and transmission means configured to transmit, to the terminal that transmits the request, a relay apparatus identifier of the relay apparatus selected by the selection means.
