A display apparatus and a control method capable of preventing its user from viewing an image in an improper viewing position. The display apparatus includes: an imaging unit that captures a moving image in a predetermined range with respect to an image display direction; an image analyzer that analyzes the moving image captured by the imaging unit, and calculates a position of a target that should be guided to a proper viewing position; and a display controller that causes a display unit to perform display to guide the target to the proper viewing position when the target position calculated by the image analyzer is at an improper viewing position.

摘要:
An image processing apparatus detects one or more subjects set as detection targets from a shot image acquired by imaging. An image pyramid generator generates an image pyramid used to detect the one or more subjects, wherein the image pyramid is generated by reducing or enlarging the shot image using scales set in advance according to the distance from the imaging unit that conducts the imaging to the one or more subjects to be detected. A detection region determining unit determines, from among the entire image regions in the image pyramid, one or more detection regions for detecting the one or more subjects. A subject detector detects the one or more subjects from the one or more detection regions.

The present invention provides an information-processing apparatus including detection means, recognition means, and meta-information generation means. The detection means detects conditions surrounding the user and generates sensing data revealing the conditions surrounding the user. The recognition means recognizes the conditions surrounding the user on the basis of the sensing data. The meta-information generation means generates meta information in the form of structured information to be used for detecting a change in the conditions surrounding the user on the basis of one or more pieces of the sensing data and recognition information showing a recognition result produced by the condition recognition means.
