Abstract: There is provided an operation control device including a motion detection part which detects an object to be detected, which is moved by motion of a user, a motion determination part which determines motion of the object to be detected based on a detection result, a movable region movement processing part which moves a cursor movable region including a cursor operating an object displayed in a display region, and a cursor movement processing part which moves the cursor. Based on motion of a first detected object, the movable region movement processing part moves the cursor movable region along with the cursor in the display region by a first movement unit. Based on motion of a second detected object, the cursor movement processing part moves only the cursor in the cursor movable region by a second movement unit smaller than the first movement unit.

Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus including a position change detecting unit that detects a position change of an operating body on a screen, a playback state control unit that controls a playback state of a content, and a display control unit that at least displays a part or all of a text list in which text data items associated with elapsed times in a playback of the content are sorted in an order of the elapsed times, on the screen. The playback state control unit controls the playback state of the content in response to a continuous position change of the operating body detected by the position change detecting unit on the text list displayed by the display control unit.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a detection section configured to detect an operating body in proximity to a display screen, an identification section configured to identify whether the operating body detected by the detection section is in proximity to a selection item included in the display screen, and a display control section configured to temporarily superimpose and display a region including selection item content of the selection item over a previously displayed display region when the identification section identifies the operating body as being in proximity to the selection item and configured to end a display of the region including the selection item content of the selection item when the detection section no longer detects the operating body as being in proximity to the display screen.
