Abstract: A system includes a first multilayer surface that includes a plurality of layers. The system further includes a plurality of sensors and circuitry. The circuitry receives a plurality of signals from the plurality of sensors and projection data associated with a media content projectable by a projection device. The projection data includes contrast control information associated with the media content. The circuitry determines ambient condition of an enclosed space based on the received plurality of signals. The circuitry selects one or more portions of the plurality of layers of the first multilayer surface based on the determined ambient condition or the projection data. The circuitry controls an opacity level of the selected one or more portions of the first multilayer surface to provide dynamic shade control in the enclosed space or improve contrast of the projected media content based on the determined ambient condition or the projection data.

Abstract: A system and method of vehicle control for user safety and experience is provided. The system receives sensed information associated with a first vehicle, detects a state of the first vehicle, and determines activities of a person or a second vehicle in proximity of the first vehicle. Such activities are determined based on the sensed information. The system triggers actions based on whether or not the determined activities are unsafe for the first vehicle or for users of the first vehicle in the detected state. The system controls devices associated with the first vehicle based on the triggered actions. The devices include a light-based projector device that is controlled to project a visual alert, included in the triggered actions, directly onto a physical surface. The physical surface is a window portion of the first vehicle or a physical structure which is external to and separate from the first vehicle.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a signal processing apparatus, a signal processing method, and a program each enabling reproduction of images and sounds in a synchronized manner. A signal processing apparatus includes a reproduction control unit configured to control, on the basis of image data of an image associated with a sound based on multichannel audio data, reproduction of the image, and a synchronization signal generation unit configured to generate a synchronization signal for reproducing the sound synchronized with the image on the basis of the multichannel audio data, on the basis of audio data for reproducing the sound, the audio data being smaller in number of channels than the multichannel audio data. The present technology is applicable to an omnidirectional contents reproduction system.

Abstract: The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a display device that enable to accurately and easily recognize a shape and a pixel position of a display surface configured by multiple self-luminous display units. The information processing apparatus includes: a communication unit configured to receive metadata regarding attributes and positions of multiple self-luminous display units constituting a display surface configured to display a video image; and a recognition unit configured to recognize a shape and a pixel position of the display surface on the basis of the metadata of each of the display units. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a display controller that controls display of an LED display.
