Abstract: The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus capable of promoting face-to-face communication, an information processing method, and a program. An information processing apparatus according to one aspect of the present technology identifies a plurality of persons, detects a specific operation performed by the plurality of persons together, and performs processing depending on a combination of the plurality of persons in a case where the specific operation is detected. For example, a task is registered when users in charge of the task perform an operation such as high five or handshake while a task management application is being executed. Also when the task is terminated and completed, the users who perform the task are required to perform the operation such as high five or handshake. The present technology is applicable to a system configured to project a video from a projector and to present information.
