Abstract: An acoustic output device according to an embodiment includes: a housing (520) one or more outward microphones (100) provided in the housing toward an outside of the housing; and two or more drivers (140(1)-(L)) that are provided inside the housing and each of which generates an acoustic control sound based on an acoustic control signal. Furthermore, in a method of controlling an acoustic output device according to an embodiment, the method includes: a processor (300a), causing each of two or more drivers provided inside a housing on which one or more microphones are provided toward an outside to generate an acoustic control sound based on an acoustic control signal.

Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus including a sensor, an actuator, a vibration control circuit, a transmission circuit, and a reception circuit. The sensor detects vibration of a control target. The actuator provides vibration control of the control target. The vibration control circuit generates a drive signal for the vibration control for the actuator according to an output signal of the sensor, and outputs the generated drive signal to the actuator. The transmission circuit modulates transmission data to produce a transmission signal, and synthesizes the modulated transmission signal to produce the drive signal for the vibration control that is to be outputted to the actuator. The reception circuit extracts a reception signal from the output signal of the sensor, and demodulates the extracted reception signal to produce reception data.

Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus including a control unit configured to control a gain of a drive signal for an actuator that is used for vibration control of an object to be controlled, according to a processing result of adaptive processing using an output signal from a sensor and the drive signal for the actuator that have been decimated, the sensor being configured to detect vibration of the object to be controlled, the drive signal being generated according to the output signal from the sensor.

Abstract: A vibration motor includes a motor including a rotor including a shaft disposed along a center axis and a stator radially opposed to the rotor, a metal vibrator including a groove in which one end in an axial direction of the shaft is disposed, a caulk that is located at an opening facing in a radial direction of the groove and fixes a circumferential surface of the shaft, and a weld that fixes the vibrator and the shaft at a position different from that of the caulk.
