    摘要: A plurality of stimulus generators (110), which is used to apply stimuli to the human body, and is laid on the human body of the user, is controlled. A position determination unit (108) determines whether or not a virtual object that forms a virtual space where the user exists is in contact with the human body. When the contact has occurred, a control unit (103) executes drive control of each of a plurality of stimulus generators (110), which are located near a place where the contact is determined, based on the positional relationship between the virtual object and the stimulus generators.

    摘要: The present invention provides a device configured to present the feel of a plane or an object surface to a user using equipment configured to generate physical vibration such as a vibration motor or the like. A plurality of vibration motors including an eccentric rotor are put on a human body, and torque generated at the vibration motor along with an angular velocity fluctuation is provided to a skin surface in the horizontal direction with a different timing. Alternately generating torque by the plurality of vibration motors enables the user to perceive a plane or an object surface.

    摘要: When a plurality of objects having RFID tags attached are to be read, an image sensing unit performs image sensing, and at the same time an RFID reader reads an RFID tag within the image sensing range. A characteristic quantity (external appearance model) of an object obtained from a database on the basis of ID data of the RFID tag is compared with a characteristic quantity obtained by image processing of the sensed image, thereby acquiring information unique to the object. The object is discriminably specified by superimposing the acquired unique information on the object in the sensed image.

    摘要: An information-processing apparatus determines whether a stimulation generation unit and a background virtual object contact each other based on position and orientation information about the stimulation generation unit and position and orientation information about the background virtual object. If it is determined that the stimulation generation unit and the background virtual object contact each other, the information-processing apparatus determines whether the stimulation generation unit is included within an attention range. The information-processing apparatus generates operation setting information for controlling an operation of the stimulation generation unit according to a result of the determination and outputs the generated operation setting information to the stimulation generation unit.
