Abstract: An information processing system includes a controller apparatus that is operated by a user in a contact manner and an information processing apparatus that is connected with the controller apparatus. The controller apparatus works in an operation state of either a first state of receiving a user operation and transmitting information regarding the received operation to the information processing apparatus or a second state of executing a predetermined process based on the user contact state, the first state being different from the second state.

Abstract: Provided is a vibration device that is connected to an information processing apparatus and includes a vibration mechanism that generates a vibration. The vibration device receives a first vibration command for the vibration device from the information processing apparatus, receives a second vibration command for a different type of vibration device from the information processing apparatus in parallel with the first vibration command, and operates the vibration mechanism on the basis of at least one of the first vibration command and the second vibration command. The second vibration command is in a format different from that of the first vibration command. The different type of vibration device is of a type different from that of the vibration device.

Abstract: Provided is a controller apparatus mounted on a hand of a user, the controller apparatus including a controller body, first sensors arranged at positions on the controller body where a plurality of fingers of the user comes into contact when the user grasps the controller body, the first sensors configured to detect displacement in spatial position between the plurality of fingers of the user and the first sensors; buttons that are arranged at positions where fingertips of the user reach and that is operated by corresponding fingers, and a plurality of second sensors arranged between the first sensors and the buttons and on surfaces of the buttons, the second sensors configured to detect displacement in spatial position between the plurality of fingers of the user and the second sensors.

Abstract: A controller apparatus attached to a hand of a user and having a plurality of sensors, the controller apparatus includes: a determination section configured to determine whether or not each of the sensors meets a predetermined condition specifying that a finger of the user is not touching the sensor; and a calibration section configured to calibrate the sensor found to meet the predetermined condition as a result of the determination.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an operating device connected to an information processing device, the operating device including an information transmitting section configured to receive an operation of a user and transmit operation information indicating content of the operation to the information processing device and a control processing section configured to perform control processing determined in advance according to the operation of the user, the information transmitting section transmitting state information indicating an execution state of the control processing to the information processing device.

Abstract: Provided is a controller apparatus worn on a user's hand that includes a first sensor disposed at a position on a controller body where a plurality of fingers of the user come into contact with the controller body when the user grips the controller body and detects spatial positional displacement between the plurality of respective fingers of the user and itself and a second sensor disposed in an area on the controller body that comes into contact with the plurality of fingers of the user when the user grips the controller body, the area being different from the area where the first sensor is disposed, and detects spatial positional displacement between the plurality of respective fingers of the user and itself, in which the first sensor has a higher sensitivity setting than the second sensor.
