Information processing apparatus
An information processing apparatus according to the present invention includes a processor, and a memory storing a program which, when executed by the processor, causes the information processing apparatus to acquire information regarding a personal space of a second user displayed in a three-dimensional space viewed by a first user, acquire information regarding a distance from the first user to a display position of the second user in the three-dimensional space, and determine whether to display the second user at the display position so that the first user does not enter the personal space, on a basis of the personal space and the distance.
1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:
a processor; and
a memory storing a program which, when executed by the processor, causes the information processing apparatus to:
(1) acquire information regarding a personal space of a second user displayed in a three-dimensional space viewed by a first user;
(2) set, as a display position of the second user, a position in the three-dimensional space designated by the first user;
(3) acquire information regarding a distance from the first user to the display position of the second user in the three-dimensional space; and
(4) determine whether to display the second user at the display position so that the first user does not enter the personal space, on a basis of the personal space and the distance.
2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein in a case where, with the second user being displayed at a first display position, it is determined that the first user does not enter the personal space on a basis of the personal space and the distance, the display position of the second user is maintained at the first display position, and
wherein in a case where, with the second user being displayed at the first display position, it is determined that the first user enters the personal space on a basis of the personal space and the distance, the display position of the second user is updated from the first display position to a second display position such that it is determined that the first user does not enter the personal space.
3 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein control is performed to inquire the second user about whether or not the first user is allowed to enter the personal space in a case where, with the second user being displayed at the first display position, it is determined that the first user enters the personal space on a basis of the personal space and the distance,
wherein control is performed to display the second user at the first display position in a case where the second user allows the first user to enter the personal space, and
wherein control is performed to display the second user at the second display position in a case where the second user does not allow the first user to enter the personal space.
4 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein control is performed to issue a notification urging the first user to leave the display position in a case where it is determined that the first user enters the personal space on a basis of the personal space and the distance, and
wherein control is performed to display the second user at the display position in a case where it is determined that the first user does not enter the personal space on a basis of the personal space and the distance.
5 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein control is performed to display the personal space in the three-dimensional space.
6 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein control is performed so as to output, to outside of the information processing apparatus, information regarding a personal space of the first user, and
wherein the personal space of the first user is updated in response to an instruction from the first user.
7 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein an information processing apparatus of the second user performs control to display the first user in a three-dimensional space viewed by the second user, and
wherein a sense of distance to the displayed second user obtained by the first user and a sense of distance to the displayed first user obtained by the second user are different from each other.
8 . An information processing method comprising:
acquiring information regarding a personal space of a second user displayed in a three-dimensional space viewed by a first user;
setting, as a display position of the second user, a position in the three-dimensional space designated by the first user;
acquiring information regarding a distance from the first user to the display position of the second user in the three-dimensional space; and
determining whether to display the second user at the display position so that the first user does not enter the personal space, on a basis of the personal space and the distance.
9 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores a program, wherein the program causes a computer to execute an information processing method comprising:
acquiring information regarding a personal space of a second user displayed in a three-dimensional space viewed by a first user;
setting, as a display position of the second user, a position in the three-dimensional space designated by the first user;
acquiring information regarding a distance from the first user to the display position of the second user in the three-dimensional space; and
determining whether to display the second user at the display position so that the first user does not enter the personal space, on a basis of the personal space and the distance.
