Abstract: There is provided a control device according to the present technology to improve an accuracy of force sense presentation while preventing hindrance to a free motion of a target part when a user does not touch a virtual object. The control device includes a control unit that controls a force sense presentation apparatus, which includes a first member that is displaced mechanically in conjunction with a motion of a target part of a user, a second member that is displaceable in a direction of coming into contact with or separating from the first member, and a drive part that drives the second member and performs force sense presentation with respect to the target part, such that a driving state of the second member is changed according to a positional relationship between a virtual object and the target part in a virtual space in which the virtual object is arranged.

Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program that make it possible to assist deaf and hard-of-hearing people in viewing a video when the video is being played back. The information processing apparatus includes a controller. The controller generates at least one of an oscillation signal corresponding to sound-effect caption data or an oscillation signal corresponding to vocalization caption data on the basis of a waveform of sound data using a result of analyzing caption information and sound information that are included in a video file, the sound-effect caption data being used to represent a sound effect in the form of text information, the vocalization caption data being used to represent a vocalization of a person in the form of text information, the sound-effect caption data and the vocalization caption data being included in caption data that is included in the caption information, the sound data being included in the sound information.

Abstract: Provided are a detection device and a detection method that more reliably detect attitudes of fingers of a user. The detection device of the present disclosure includes: a first sensor that is disposed in a space between a thumb and an index finger and detects first information obtained by sensing a first finger that is a finger included in a first detection area; and a second sensor that is disposed on a palm and detects second information obtained by sensing a second finger that is a finger included in a second detection area.

Abstract: Provided is a decoding device including a decoding unit configured to decode encoded data in which a differential signal that includes a differential between a tactile signal and a reference signal has been encoded, and a signal addition unit configured to add the reference signal and the differential signal. In addition, provided is a decoding method by a processor, the decoding method including decoding encoded data in which a differential signal that includes a differential between a tactile signal and a reference signal has been encoded, and adding the reference signal and the differential signal that has been decoded.
