Abstract

There is provided an information processing device to cause vibration to be generated suitable for a state between an information processing device including a vibrating device and a user, the information processing device including: corrected vibration data configured to generate corrected information for correcting a strength of vibration data for a vibrating device including a vibrator on a basis of information provided from a detecting unit configured to detect a contact state of the vibrating device; and an vibration signal generating unit configured to generate a vibration signal from the corrected vibration data.

Claims (23)

1. An information processing device comprising:

circuitry configured to

store a detected wearing position of each vibrating device of a plurality of vibrating devices including a vibrator,

generate corrected vibration data obtained by correcting a strength of vibration data for each vibrating device based on the stored detected wearing position of the vibrating device, and

generate a vibration signal from the corrected vibration data.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the corrected vibration data is generated to increase the strength of the vibration data.

3. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the corrected vibration data is generated to correct a frequency of the vibration data for vibrating the vibrator in accordance with the stored wearing position.

4. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the information processing device comprises a jacket-type wearable terminal.

5. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein timing of haptic data generation related to the vibration data is controlled based on visual information of a display image.

6. The information processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

the plurality of vibrating devices in different positions.

7. An information processing method comprising:

storing a detected wearing position of each vibrating device of a plurality of vibrating devices including a vibrator;

generating corrected vibration data obtained by correcting a strength of vibration data for each vibrating device based on the stored detected wearing position of the vibrating device; and

generating a vibration signal from the corrected vibration data.

8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a program, which when executed by an information processing device of a computer, causes the computer to execute a method, the method comprising:

storing a detected wearing position of each vibrating device of a plurality of vibrating devices including a vibrator;

generating corrected vibration data obtained by correcting a strength of vibration data for each vibrating device based on the stored detected wearing position of the vibrating device; and

generating a vibration signal from the corrected vibration data.
