Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes an acquiring unit and a command unit. The acquiring unit acquires positional information of a container containing a contained object from an image acquired as a result of photographing the container by using a display device that displays a virtual-space image and a real space in an overlapping manner and that has a photographing function. The command unit commands the display device to display information related to the contained object stored in association with the positional information as the virtual-space image near the container.

Claims (47)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

an acquiring unit that acquires positional information of a container containing a contained object from an image acquired as a result of photographing the container by using a display device that displays a virtual-space image and a real space in an overlapping manner and that has a photographing function; and

a command unit that commands the display device to display information related to the contained object stored in association with the positional information as the virtual-space image near the container,

wherein the contained object is a file that binds a document, and

wherein the information related to the contained object is a file name displayed on a spine of the file.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the command unit makes a command to change the information related to the contained object based on a command from the display device.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the command unit makes a command to display attribute information of selected information based on the command from the display device.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein displaying of the attribute information is limited by an access right given to a user using the display device.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the information related to the contained object includes contents according to an access right given to a user using the display device.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the information related to the contained object is changed in accordance with a predetermined time.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the file name is displayed with a display width having a size corresponding to a spine width of the file, and text of the file name is displayed with a size according to the display width.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein a color the file is changed in accordance with a number of times the file is actually taken out from the container.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the file is displayed in a color indicating that the file is actually taken out from the container.

10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the container includes a door and a lock controller that unlocks the door if a user has an access right to the container.

11. An information processing apparatus comprising:

an acquiring unit that acquires positional information of a container containing a contained object from an image acquired as a result of photographing the container by using a display device that displays a virtual-space image and a real space in an overlapping manner and that has a photographing function; and

a command unit that commands the display device to display information related to the contained object stored in association with the positional information as the virtual-space image near the container,

wherein the acquiring unit acquires a distance between the display device and the container, and

wherein the command unit makes a command to display the information related to the contained object by changing a text size of the information such that the text size is larger for the container with a longer distance to the display device than the container with a shorter distance to the display device.

12. An information processing apparatus comprising:

an acquiring unit that acquires positional information of a container containing a contained object from an image acquired as a result of photographing the container by using a display device that displays a virtual-space image and a real space in an overlapping manner and that has a photographing function; and

a command unit that commands the display device to display information related to the contained object stored in association with the positional information as the virtual-space image near the container,

wherein the command unit makes a command to display a notification in a case where the container and the contained object are associated with each other and the contained object is taken out or if the contained object is to be contained in a wrong container.

13. An information processing apparatus comprising:

an acquiring unit that acquires positional information of a container containing a contained object from an image acquired as a result of photographing the container by using a display device that displays a virtual-space image and a real space in an overlapping manner and that has a photographing function; and

a command unit that commands the display device to display information related to the contained object stored in association with the positional information as the virtual-space image near the container,

wherein if a photographed image of the container and a log-in request are received from the display device, the command unit makes a command to display the information related to the contained object as the virtual-space image, and wherein if no command is made for a predetermined time or if no log-out request is received, the command unit makes a command to end the displaying of the information related to the contained object as the virtual-space image.

14. An information processing system comprising:

a display device that displays a virtual-space image and a real space in an overlapping manner and that has a photographing function;

an acquiring unit that acquires positional information of a container containing a contained object from an image acquired as a result of the display device photographing the container; and

a command unit that commands the display device to display information related to the contained object stored in association with the positional information as the virtual-space image near the container,

wherein the contained object is a file that binds a document, and

wherein the information related to the contained object is a file name displayed on a spine of the file.

15. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for processing information, the process comprising:

acquiring positional information of a container containing a contained object from an image acquired as a result of photographing the container by using a display device that displays a virtual-space image and a real space in an overlapping manner and that has a photographing function; and

commanding the display device to display information related to the contained object stored in association with the positional information as the virtual-space image near the container,

wherein the contained object is a file that binds a document, and

wherein the information related to the contained object is a file name displayed on a spine of the file.
