Abstract: The present technology relates to a control device, a method for control, a program, and a projection system that enable to, in a case where input information is to be presented by projecting an image, naturally attract the attention of a person around a projection surface. A control device of an aspect of the present technology projects an image representing input information onto a projection surface so as to follow an input of the input information, with an effect in accordance with the type of the projection surface. As the projection surface, a thin sheet material attached on a wall surface is prepared, for example. The color of the thin sheet material is a dark color, for example, and in time with projection of the image representing a handwritten character or picture, a sound, which will come out when the character or the picture is drawn with a chalk on a chalkboard, is output from a speaker installed on the back side of the projection surface. The present technology can be applied to a system that presents information by projecting an image from a projector.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a control apparatus, a control method, a program, and a projection system capable of conveying information in space more intuitively. The control apparatus according to one aspect of the present technology is an apparatus that acquires space sensing data regarding an object in a space obtained by sensing the space, acquires external environment data obtained by sensing an external environment, determines an image corresponding to the object on the basis of the space sensing data, and controls to project the image to which an effect corresponding to the external environment data has been added, onto the space. The present technology can be applied to a system that controls to project an image from a projector and presents information.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a projection controller and a mode controller. The projection controller controls projection of first information and projection of second information that is classified as information of which a type is different from a type of the first information. The mode controller is capable of performing switching between a first projection mode and a second projection mode, the first projection mode being a projection mode in which the first information and the second information are projected onto a projection-target object, the second projection mode being a projection mode in which the first information is projected onto the projection-target object, and the second information is projected onto a region outside of the projection-target object.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus and an information processing method as well as a program that make it possible to control, by a partition provided on a boundary between two spaces, a visual shielding property and an auditory shielding property of a first space to a person in a second space in an interlocking relationship with each other in response to a distance between the person in the second space and the partition. A distance between the partition, which partitions the first space and the second space, and a person in the second space is measured, and transmittance of the partition and magnitude of output of audio in the first space to the second space are controlled in response to the measured distance. The present disclosure can be applied to a control apparatus for a partition section.
