  • Publication number: 20230042682
    Abstract: The present technology relates to an autonomous mobile body, an information processing method, a program, and an information processing device, by which a user experience based on an output sound of the autonomous mobile body can be improved. The autonomous mobile body includes a recognition section that recognizes a paired device that is paired with the autonomous mobile body, and a sound control section that changes a control method for an output sound to be outputted from the autonomous mobile body, on the basis of a recognition result of the paired device, and controls the output sound in accordance with the changed control method. The present technology is applicable to a robot, for example.

  • Publication number: 20220413795
    Abstract: The present technology relates to an autonomous mobile body, an information processing method, a program, and an information processing apparatus capable of improving user experience by an output sound of the autonomous mobile body. The autonomous mobile body includes: a recognition unit that recognizes a motion of its own device; and a sound control unit that controls an output sound output from the own device. The sound control unit controls output of a plurality of operation sounds that is the output sound corresponding to a plurality of the motions of the own device, and changes the operation sound in a case where the plurality of motions has been recognized. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a robot.

  • Patent number: 10897655
    Abstract: To make it possible to easily use video data of raw data of a high frame rate input from a single-chip camera in a server system that is different from an AV server system in which an AV server itself is included. First AV clip data is obtained by performing a compression encoding process to raw data of a high frame rate input from a single-chip camera and is written in a storage. The raw data of the high frame rate is obtained by reading the first AV clip data from the storage and processing a compression decoding process on the first AV clip data, video data of a high frame rate is obtained by performing a demosaic process on the raw data, and second AV clip data is obtained by performing a compression encoding process on the video data and is written in the storage. The second AV clip data is read from the storage and transmitted to a second AV server system that is different from a first AV server system in which an AV server itself is included.

  • Patent number: 10887636
    Abstract: To increase the number of IO ports and to increase the storage amount easily. An AV server system includes: a plurality of AV servers including internet protocol (IP) input-output ports for connecting to other AV servers, the IP input-output ports being independent from input-output ports to an outside of the system; a client controller configured to control the plurality of AV servers; a manager storing information relevant to AV clip data recorded in the plurality of AV servers and AV clip data input into the plurality of AV servers; and a frame synchronization unit configured to perform frame synchronization between the plurality of AV servers.

  • Publication number: 20140208025
    Abstract: A RAID controller includes a first serial interface, a second serial interface, and a control unit. To the first serial interface, a host device is connectable. The second serial interface has a plurality of ports to each of which a storage device capable of executing a command is connectable. The control unit controls the second serial interface so that, when a significant value is written to a predetermined control register which is determined to be unused on a serial interface standard for a type of the command obtained from the host device through the first serial interface among a control register group to which a parameter is written, the value is regarded as port information for specifying the port to which the storage device caused to execute the command is connected, and the command is transferred to the storage device via the port specified by the port information.
