Abstract
An information processing device includes an acquisition unit that acquires position information, visual line detection information, and voice information of a first user, and position information of a second user, a determination unit that determines a positional relationship between the first user and the second user on a basis of the position information of the first user and the position information of the second user, a specification unit that specifies a voice dialogue area in which a voice dialogue is possible to be performed between the first user and the second user on a basis of the determined positional relationship, and an avatar control unit that sets a position of an avatar outside the specified voice dialogue area, in which in a case where the voice information of the first user is acquired when the first user is looking outside the voice dialogue area, the avatar control unit causes the avatar to execute a predetermined action, and in a case where the voice information of the first user is acquired when the first user is looking inside the voice dialogue area, the avatar control unit suppresses the avatar from executing the predetermined action.
