  • Patent number: 10998870
    Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program that enable output of a sound to be heard at an assumed viewing/listening position of a zoom image when an image is displayed as the zoom image. In the case of image content such as a sports broadcast, the individual location information, direction and posture information, and audio data of each player as an object are stored separately for direct sound and reverberant sound, at the time of recording. At the time of reproducing a zoom image, the direct sound and the reverberant sound are mixed according to the direction of a player as an object with respect to an assumed viewing/listening position in the zoom image, so that a sound to be heard at the assumed viewing/listening position is output. The present disclosure can be applied to a content reproduction apparatus.
