Abstract: An entertainment system includes a user terminal, a robot, and a control device. The user terminal causes a display unit to display contents which allow a user to select any one character from a plurality of characters for which personalities different from one another are defined. The control device determines an operation mode of the robot on the basis of a parameter corresponding to a personality of the character selected on the user terminal.

Abstract: A control device generates a first image in which, together with an object in the real world appearing in an image captured by a camera of a robot, a virtual object appears and which presents an exterior appearance of the virtual object while the position of the camera of the robot is set as a view-point. An HMD displays the first image generated by the control device. In a case in which the position of the HMD in the height direction changes, the control device generates a second image from which the object in the real world is deleted and which presents the exterior appearance of the virtual object viewed from a new view-point according to the change in the position of the HMD in the height direction. The HMD displays the second image in place of the first image.

Abstract: Provided is an information processing device that controls a motion of a robot having a torso and a head. The information processing device includes an acquisition section that acquires an image of a face of a user that is captured by a camera of a mobile terminal device, a motion detection section that detects an orientation of the face of the user from the acquired image, a control signal generation section that generates a control signal for rotating the first or the second rotating device of the robot according to the detected orientation of the face of the user, and a transmission section that transmits the generated control signal to the robot.

Abstract: A head-mounted display, a display control method, and a program that facilitate a user to understand proximity between the user and an object around the user are provided.
