  • Publication number: 20240157245
    Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus and resources for automatically recognizing an allowed region in order to eliminate time and effort required every time the allowed region is to be designated. The information processing apparatus includes a sorting section, a region identifying section, and an allowed region determining section. The sorting section sorts multiple planes included in space information representing an object existing in a three-dimensional space by use of the multiple planes, into at least a plane corresponding to a base and a plane corresponding to an obstacle. The region identifying section calculates a base region pertaining to the plane corresponding to the base and an obstacle region pertaining to the plane corresponding to the obstacle. The allowed region determining section calculates, on the basis of the base region and the obstacle region, an allowed region in which a target object existing in the three-dimensional space is allowed to be positioned.

  • Publication number: 20230418554
    Abstract: An audio content output control device includes a memory, an arbitration unit, and an audio output control unit. The memory stores a rule definition including: an arbitration policy for defining basic arbitration when one of audio contents is assigned to a zone; and a constraint expression. The arbitration unit performs arbitration of the audio contents according to the rule definition to satisfy rule-based arbitration upon receiving output requests of the audio contents. The audio output control unit controls output of the one of the audio contents assigned to the zone when the arbitration of the audio contents is performed by the arbitration unit. The memory stores the rule definition in consideration of requirements specific to the audio contents, respectively. The arbitration unit performs the arbitration of the audio contents in accordance with the rule definition in consideration of the requirements specific to the audio contents.

  • Publication number: 20230418539
    Abstract: A content output control device includes a memory, an arbitration unit, and an output control unit. The memory stores a rule definition including: an arbitration policy for defining basic arbitration when one of contents is assigned to an area or a zone; and a constraint expression. The arbitration unit performs arbitration of the contents according to the rule definition to satisfy a rule-based arbitration upon receiving an output request from an application. The output control unit controls an output of the one of the contents assigned to the area or the zone due to the arbitration of the contents by the arbitration unit. The arbitration unit determines an output order of the contents, and performs the arbitration of the contents by using a result of determining the output order so as to satisfy the rule-based arbitration.

  • Patent number: 11847374
    Abstract: In a presentation control, another presentation request of another content is accepted from another application while presenting a content of one application, which content is preferentially presented is arbitrated based on a rule definition including: an attribute of the content that defines either a cancellation for withdrawing the presentation request or an on-standby without withdrawing the presentation request; and a constraint equation that defines an exception rule for defining a setting of the content that has lost arbitration as either the on-standby or the cancellation; and one of the contents arbitrated is presented to a presentation area.

  • Publication number: 20230393797
    Abstract: A content output control device includes: a memory that stores a rule definition including: an arbitration policy when contents are assigned to areas or zones; and a constraint expression; an arbitration unit that arbitrates the contents according to the rule definition to satisfy a rule-based arbitration upon receiving an output request from an application; and an output control unit that controls an output of the contents assigned to the areas or the zones. When one area or zone is re-arbitrated, the arbitration unit re-arbitrates a different one area specified as an influence area that influences the one area due to an re-arbitration thereof, or a different one zone specified as an influence zone that influences the one zone due to an re-arbitration thereof.

  • Publication number: 20230393899
    Abstract: A content output controller includes a storage, an arbitration unit, and an output controller. The storage stores a rule definition. The arbitration unit arbitrates multiple contents according to the rule definition to satisfy a rule-based arbitration upon receiving an output request from an application. The output controller controls an output of the multiple contents allocated to multiple areas or multiple zones due to an arbitration of the plurality of contents. The arbitration unit selects an area as an arbitration target area from the multiple areas defined in a model or a zone as an arbitration target zone from the multiple zones defined in the model in response to receiving the output request from the application; arbitrates the arbitration target area or the arbitration target zone; and does not arbitrate remainder of the multiple areas or remainder of the multiple zones.
