  • Publication number: 20160049108
    Abstract: A head-mounted display, a smart phone, a tablet terminal, an electronic book, or the like monitors conditions of the side of a power generation apparatus that charges a battery. An image display apparatus includes a power generation information acquisition means for obtaining power generation information on a power storage amount, a power generation amount, and the like of a secondary battery in each power generation apparatus, appropriately processes the obtained information, and displays it to a user via a display unit. The user can check the power generation amount of the power generation apparatus and the power storage amount of the secondary battery without stopping the use of the image display apparatus. When a power storage amount of a battery in use is lowered, the user can properly judge with which of the power generation apparatuses the user should replace the battery.

  • Publication number: 20140327611
    Abstract: The present technology relates to information processing apparatus and method, and a program, which are capable of presenting an operation input unit in a position in which a user easily performs an input operation. An imaging unit captures an image of a vicinity of a display unit. A hand recognition unit recognizes a hand by extracting a hand image obtained by capturing a hand, based on feature information of the hand, from the image captured by the imaging unit. The hand position detection unit specifies a real position on a display unit from information on a position in an image in which the hand image is present. A display control unit for an operation input unit displays an operation input unit in a position on the display unit which is specified based on the position of the hand detected by the hand position detection unit.
