Abstract
The present technique relates to a display control device, a method, and a program that can improve user's operability of a free-cursor type user interface. An imaging unit outputs an RGB image based on a pixel signal corresponding to a visible light among light input through a lens and an IR image based on a pixel signal corresponding to an infrared light among light input through the lens. An ROI set unit sets a movement area of an infrared light source in the IR image based on the RGB image, and a display control unit controls a cursor movement amount on a display unit according to movement of the infrared light source in the movement area. The present technique can be applied to a television set that monitors a viewing condition of a viewer, for example.
