摘要:
By allowing the movement of a user to affect the playback of content, the entertainment characteristic or uplifting spirits derived from content playback itself can be enhanced. The timing at which the user places his/her foot on the ground while walking or the timing at which the user shakes or changes from swinging in one direction to swinging to another direction is detected. Then, content, such as a music piece or moving pictures, is played back by allowing the timing of beats or bars of the music piece or the timing of scene changes or cut changes of the moving pictures to be synchronized with the timing of the movement of the user.
摘要:
A content searching method includes the steps of: detecting movements of a user as movement information; detecting a movement pattern of the user as key information from the movement information; and searching for a piece of content having a content pattern according to the key information among a plurality of pieces of content.

There is provided a mobile phone that detects bio-information on the user and makes information communications reflecting the detected bio-information. The mobile phone (1) includes sensors (18) that detect bio-information data. The bio-information data detected by the sensors (18) are sent to a sensor data analyzer (19) in which psychology corresponding to the detected bio-information data is analyzed based on bio-information data stored in a psychology memory (20) and psychology of the user. The sensor data analyzer (19) extracts characteristic signal patterns from the bio-information data detected by the sensors (18) and analyzes psychology corresponding to the extracted signal patterns. The psychology includes, for example, “pleased and delightful”, “discouraged”, “excited”, etc. and these states of mind are stored in association with bio-information data in the psychology memory (20). When the bio-information data are detected by the sensors (18), psychology most matching the bio-information data is selectively read out of the psychology memory (20).

Disclosed is an electronic apparatus having its operation controlled electronically responsive to the wax and the wane of the moon. The electronic apparatus includes a moon age calendar (4) for storage of the age of the moon, a timer (3) for timing the current date and time, and an image database (5) for storage of moon images. A display controller (6) retrieves the age of the moon, consistent with the current date of time, from the moon age calendar (4), and reads out a moon image of the moon phase consistent with the age of the moon from the image database (5). An operating panel (9) includes a display area for demonstrating the operating state of the electronic apparatus and another display area for demonstrating the wax and the wane of the moon. The display controller (6) causes the moon image to be read out from an image database (5) and demonstrated in the display area for demonstrating the wane of the moon.
摘要:
A bio-information presenting method and a bio-information presenting device, for presenting to a user bio-information, indicating a movement of a physical organ of the user. The movement of a bodily organ of the user, controlled voluntarily or involuntarily, is fed back to the user, and a background image is stored in a storage unit for subsequent image data for composition. An image processing unit compounds an image of the user, captured by a camera, with a background image. In compounding the images, the image of the user is subjected to fade-in and fade-out in association with an output of a breathing sensor. The user is apprized of the inhalation period, exhalation period and the depth of breathing, based on an image on a display unit. The change in the display image surface represents certain changes in the user's breathing. The display unit of the breathing visualizing device is changed responsive to the breathing of the user, and a feedback loop is formed in this manner between the breathing visualizing device and the respiratory organ of the user.

A biological sensor device includes a sensor-mounting element worn on part of a user's face from a front surface to a side surface and further includes a number of biological sensors installed on the sensor-mounting element that measure different types of biological conditions of the user.

Reproducing characteristics of an audio sound are controlled by an audio controller 8 and reproducing characteristics of a video image are controlled by a video controller 11. Whether or not a viewpoint of the user is directed to a display 13 side of a television receiver is detected by a viewpoint detector 14. On the basis of a detection signal from the viewpoint detector 14, a discriminating unit 15 discriminates which of a normal monitoring state, a “while watching” state, and the “concentration” state the present state corresponds to, and generates a control signal to control the reproducing characteristics so as to be adaptive to the state. If it is determined that the present state changes from the “while watching” state to the “concentration” state, a sound volume is reduced and the reproducing characteristics are automatically switched so as not to obstruct the concentration.

Bio-information sensors acquire bio-information about a user, and environmental condition sensors acquire environmental information about the user. A call-sound generating unit generates audio data from the bio-information and the environmental information, and the audio data is recorded in a ROM. Upon detecting a call signal transmitted from a base station, a CPU causes the call-sound generating unit to read the audio data. The CPU causes the call-sound generating unit to supply the audio data to a speaker that generates the sound from the audio data.
摘要:
Conditions for starting the playback of the next cut in the middle of the cut of a drama are assumed to be such that, for the first cut, a viewer/listener blinks two times in the detection time zone, and for the second cut, the pupil diameter of the viewer/listener has become 8 mm or more in the detection time zone. The CPU of a playback apparatus determines whether or not the conditions are satisfied when the cut is played back, and when the conditions are satisfied, the playback of the next cut is started even in the middle of the cut. In the case of music, when the rhythm of the respiration of the viewer/listener or the motion of the body is not in tune with the rhythm of the music, the playback of the next music is started even in the middle of the music.
