Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a detection unit configured to detect a position of a manipulation body on a display screen and a control unit configured to, if a first manipulation on the display screen in a locked state is detected, display, on the display screen, icons to be arranged based on a reference point indicating a position of the manipulation body when the first manipulation is completed, and if a second manipulation indicating a direction from the reference point is detected, start up an application corresponding to the icon specified by the second manipulation. An associated method and computer readable storage medium are also described.

Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus including a an operating tool detection unit that detects an indication direction of an operation tool in contact with a display panel and an operation identification unit that identifies a direction of an operation input by the operating tool, based on the detected indication direction of the operating tool. Thereby, the direction of the operation is detected based on the indication direction of the operating tool, so that an operation independent of an orientation of the display panel with respect to an operator becomes possible.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a display control unit, including a processor, configured to control a display to display a plurality of objects and receive a selection of one of the plurality of objects by a user as a selected object. The display control unit is configured to control the display to move the selected object when a move command is received from the user. The display control unit is configured to control the display to group additionally selected objects with the selected object when additional objects are selected by the user and a group command is received from the user. The display control unit is configured to control the display to independently move the additionally selected objects with respect to the selected object until the additionally selected objects are grouped with the selected object.

Abstract: There is provided an image processing device including a person recognition unit that recognizes a person included in each of a plurality of captured images, an image evaluation unit that evaluates one or more captured image groups extracted from among the plurality of captured images, on the basis of a degree of appearance for each person of interest recognized by the person recognition unit, and an image selection unit that selects a captured image group having the highest result of the evaluation by the image evaluation unit.
