Abstract: Provided is a control device that projects an image representing input information onto a projection surface so as to follow an input of the input information, with an effect in accordance with the type of the projection surface. As the projection surface, a thin sheet material attached on a wall surface is prepared, for example. The color of the thin sheet material is a dark color, for example, and in time with projection of the image representing a handwritten character or picture, a sound, which will come out when the character or the picture is drawn with a chalk on a chalkboard, is output from a speaker installed on the back side of the projection surface.

Abstract: To provide a controller and an information processing system capable of providing a click feeling and an operation sound with a simpler mechanism. The controller includes a hollow portion, a freely movable first magnet placed in the hollow portion, a second magnet fixed to an outer side of the hollow portion, and a bottom surface having a tilted shape with respect to a ground surface.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a control apparatus, a control method, a program, and a projection system capable of conveying information in space more intuitively. The control apparatus according to one aspect of the present technology is an apparatus that acquires space sensing data regarding an object in a space obtained by sensing the space, acquires external environment data obtained by sensing an external environment, determines an image corresponding to the object on the basis of the space sensing data, and controls to project the image to which an effect corresponding to the external environment data has been added, onto the space. The present technology can be applied to a system that controls to project an image from a projector and presents information.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a control device, a method for control, a program, and a projection system that enable to, in a case where input information is to be presented by projecting an image, naturally attract the attention of a person around a projection surface.
