Abstract

Provided is an information processing system including a recognizing unit configured to recognize a first target and a second target on the basis of signals detected by a plurality of sensors arranged around a specific user, an identifying unit configured to identify the first target and the second target recognized by the recognizing unit, an estimating unit configured to estimate a position of the specific user in accordance with the a signal detected by any one of the plurality of sensors, and a signal processing unit configured to process each of signals acquired from sensors around the first target and the second target identified by the identifying unit in a manner that, when being output from a plurality of actuators arranged around the specific user, the signals are localized near the position of the specific user estimated by the estimating unit.
