Provided is an information processing apparatus, including a calculation section which calculates a proficiency level of a user for operations performed by the user for achieving a prescribed objective based on history information related to the operations and attribute information related to physical features of the user, and a generation section which generates advice for achieving the objective based on the proficiency level calculated by the calculation section.

Information processing apparatus and storage medium

An electronic device including: a transparent panel section in which a plurality of transparent light-emitting elements is disposed; and an imaging section that is disposed under a partial region of the transparent panel section, and images, via the transparent panel section, an object which is in contact with or in proximity to the partial region of the transparent panel section.

Electronic device

There is provided a display control system including a plurality of display units, an imaging unit configured to capture a subject, a predictor configured to predict an action of the subject according to a captured image captured by the imaging unit, a guide image generator configured to generate a guide image that guides the subject according to a prediction result from the predictor, and a display controller configured to, on the basis of the prediction result from the predictor, select a display unit capable of displaying an image at a position corresponding to the subject from the plurality of display units, and to control the selected display unit to display the guide image at the position corresponding to the subject.

Displaying guide images on a table

There is provided an information processing apparatus that obtains information of a voice input of at least one user and estimates an attribute of the user based on the information of the voice input. The information processing apparatus further controls a display apparatus to display a layout image for the information of the voice input based on the estimated attribute of the user.

Information processing apparatus and method for estimating attribute of a user based on a voice input

There is provided a storage control device including: a filter detecting unit configured to detect a voice signal estimation filter for estimating a first voice signal heard by a specific user himself/herself; an estimation unit configured to estimate the first voice signal heard by the specific user himself/herself, on the basis of a voice signal including a second voice signal of the specific user collected by an air conduction sound collecting unit in accordance with the voice signal estimation filter detected by the filter detecting unit; and a storage control unit configured to cause a storage unit to store the first voice signal estimated by the estimation unit.

Estimating a voice signal heard by a user

A communication system, a control method, and a storage medium, which can guide a user to an action for having the predetermined feeling in accordance with a feeling map. A communication system including: an acquisition unit configured to acquire present position information of a user; a guiding information generation unit configured to generate guiding information in accordance with the present position information and map information in which feeling data is mapped; and a supply unit configured to supply the guiding information to the user.

Communication system, control method, and storage medium

[Object] To provide an image display system that displays an image with a wide field of view while reducing VR sickness. [Solution] When a field of view FOVof an original image provided by an image output device () is greater than a field of view FOVof an image viewed by a user wearing an image display device (), the image output device () cuts out a region with the field of view FOVfrom the original image for delivery to the image display device (). Also, when the field of view FOVof the image viewed by the user wearing the image display device () is equal to or greater than the field of view FOVof the original image provided by the image output device (), the image output device () delivers the original image as-is to the image display device ().

Image display device and image display method, image output device and image output method, and image display system

There is provided an information delivery apparatus including a receiving portion to receive location information of a mobile communication terminal at a given time and acquired date and time of the location information from the terminal, an event information storage portion to store event information including an event place, date and time, a delivery terminal selecting portion to select the mobile communication terminal to which the event information is to be delivered based on the location information and the acquired date and time of the location information and on the event place, date and time, and an event information delivery portion to deliver the event information to the selected mobile communication terminal. The delivery terminal selecting portion selects the mobile communication terminal whose location indicated by location information is within a predetermined range and whose acquired date and time of the location information are before the event date and time.

Information delivery system for sending reminder times based on event and travel times

Display control system and recording medium for displaying a guide image

A display control apparatus comprising circuitry configured to obtain information of an input speed of a gesture input of at least one user from a sensor configured to detect a hand of the user, estimate an attribute of the user based on the input speed, control a display apparatus to display a layout image for the gesture input based on the estimated attribute of the user.

Display control apparatus and method for estimating attribute of a user based on the speed of an input gesture

A control system, method and computer program product use control circuitry to respond to an optical detection of a wearable object worn by a user by initiating a service provided to the user, the service being associated with the wearable object.

Control system and control method

A communication system includes processing circuitry that responds to a recognition result by initiating an electronic communication session with a user-designated destination. The recognition result corresponds with a recognized gesture made by the user as detected by a sensor, and the user-designated destination corresponds with the recognized gesture. A method and non-transitory computer program product also respond to the recognition result in a similar manner.

Communication system, communication method and program

There is provided an information processing apparatus including a detection unit configured to detect a gaze point of a user in a display image displayed on a display unit, an estimation unit configured to estimate an intention of the user based on the gaze point detected by the detection unit, an image generation unit configured to generates a varying image that subtly varies from the display image to a final display image according to the intention estimated by the estimation unit, and a display control unit configured to control the display unit in a manner that the varying image generated by the image generation unit is displayed.
