Abstract

This technique relates to a data distribution apparatus, a data distribution method, and a program capable of selecting stream data required by a portable terminal from among multiple stream data, and distributing the stream data. A receiving unit receives a first image generated by capturing an image, audio data generated by collecting sound, and second image data generated in advance before the first image is generated. An analyzing unit analyzes at least one of the audio data and the second image data. A generating unit generates distribution data including at least one of the first image and the second image in accordance with an analysis result provided by the analyzing unit. A distribution unit distributes the distribution data to a portable terminal as a stream. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, a video conference apparatus.
