Abstract
An information processing device, including: an operation input unit that allows input operations by two types of operating bodies, including an input operation performed via proximity or contact of a part of a human body, and an input operation performed via proximity or contact of a stylus-like input device; and an input control unit that controls switching between the input operation performed via proximity or contact of the part of the human body and the input operation performed via proximity or contact of the stylus-like input device, based on a separation distance between the part of the human body and/or the stylus-like input device and an operation input surface of the operation input unit, and also based on an angle between a central axis of the stylus-like input device and the operation input surface.
