Abstract: An exemplary portable electronic apparatus includes a display provided at a front surface thereof and an infrared camera provided at a side surface thereof. A contour image indicating a contour of a hand of a user included in an image captured by the infrared camera, and a guide frame image indicating a region smaller than an imaging range of the infrared camera, are displayed on the display in perspective form such that the images are obliquely viewed images. Accordingly, it is made easy for the user to recognize the position of the hand in a side surface direction of the portable electronic apparatus, and thus the user can put their hand within a range suitable for a gesture input.

Abstract: An example information processing device includes a housing and a camera for capturing an image in a side surface direction of the housing. The information processing device calculates, based on a camera image obtained by the camera, a three-dimensional position of an object (e.g., a hand of a user) included in the camera image, and performs an information process in accordance with the three-dimensional position. Note that the information processing device may specify a shape of the object based on the camera image to perform an information process in accordance with the three-dimensional position and the shape of the object. Then, it is possible to realize various inputs using a captured image.
