Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes processing circuitry that is configured to issue a control command relating to a real object based on a displayed positional relationship between the real object and a predetermined object. The real object being a tangible, movable object and the predetermined object being at least one of another real object and a virtual object.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus and method acquires an image, performs an image recognition process on the acquired image to recognize a physical object in that image, and then generates a virtual image based on the results of the image recognition process. The virtual image includes a virtual object positioned relative to the physical object that was recognized in the acquired image. A display then displays the virtual image, and a projector projects at least part of the virtual image. The apparatus and method also include modes in which the display displays the virtual image, but the projector does not project the virtual image, where the projector projects the virtual image but the display does not display the virtual image, and where the display displays the virtual image and the projector projects the virtual image.
