Abstract
An operational support apparatus includes a speech recognizer and a controller. The speech recognizer converts speech data into text information. In a case where the text information contains a keyword that indicates a person, the controller identifies which of input terminals of the display apparatus is associated with the person. The controller generates a switching command to activate the input terminal thus identified.
