  • Publication number: 20230394733
    Abstract: A processing device includes an acquisition unit that acquires an instruction to specify a conscious behavior of a target that reproduces a behavior of a user, a determination unit that determines a parameter for reproducing an unconscious behavior corresponding to the conscious behavior specified by the instruction from unconscious parameter data in which an identifier of a conscious behavior of the user, an identifier of an unconscious behavior in the conscious behavior, and an index for specifying a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior are associated with each other, and an output unit that outputs a determined parameter to a drive unit TD of the target T, in which a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior varies depending on the conscious behavior.

  • Publication number: 20210229676
    Abstract: In order to enable support information to be presented at a timing that is appropriate for a user, a movement support information presentation control apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention estimates an audio environment and a visual environment that surrounds the user in addition to a driving performance of the user and an operation state of a driving apparatus 2. In addition, based on these estimation results, suitability of information presentation is determined for each type of presentation sections 81 to 83 and, when it is determined that information presentation is not suitable, control is performed so as to postpone an information presentation operation by a corresponding presentation section.
