Information processing device and information processing method
A user is assisted in performing a voice operation appropriately. A situation determination section determines a situation. A state control section controls a voice command appropriate for the determined situation to put the voice command into a receivable state. For example, the user is informed of what the voice command in a receivable state is, by means of display or voice output. The user can utter a voice command without performing a user action to prevent false recognition, such as the utterance of a wake word. This reduces the troublesomeness and burden of the user.
1 . A television comprising:
circuitry configured to
acquire situation information from an external apparatus;
determine, using the acquired situation information, a situation;
automatically put, into a receivable state, a voice command appropriate only for the determined situation without a television user action performed while visually and audibly notifying a television user of the voice command appropriate for the determined situation; and
wherein
the visual notification to the television user is displayed on the television in a visually recognizable manner and the audible notification is through a speaker in an auditorily recognizable manner, and
the television user action is a button pressing operation function or an utterance of a wake expression for reception of the voice command.
2 . The television according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is configured to determine a situation of an application function, and the situation includes the determined situation of the application function.
3 . The television according to claim 2 , wherein the application function includes an application function of a smart television or a smart speaker.
4 . The television according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is configured to sense a situation, wherein the situation includes a situation sensed by a sensor circuitry.
5 . The television according to claim 4 , wherein the situation includes a situation of a user.
6 . The television according to claim 1 , wherein the external apparatus includes a camera.
7 . The television according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is configured to execute a voice command in a case that the voice command is the voice command appropriate for the situation.
8 . The television according to claim 1 wherein in a case when the voice command appropriate for the determined situation is not a command that the television user intends to utter, the television will respond to the wake expression.
9 . The television according to claim 1 , wherein the external apparatus is an Internet of Things apparatus.
10 . The television according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is configured to employ an interactive Artificial Intelligence assistant.
11 . A television operational method comprising:
acquire situation information from an external apparatus;
determine, using the acquired situation information, a situation;
automatically put, into a receivable state, a voice command appropriate only for the determined situation without a television user action performed while visually and audibly notifying a television user of the voice command appropriate for the determined situation; and
wherein
the visual notification to the television user is displayed on the television in a visually recognizable manner and the audible notification is through a speaker in an auditorily recognizable manner, and
the television user action is a button pressing operation function or an utterance of a wake expression for reception of the voice command.
12 . The television operational method according to claim 11 wherein in a case when the voice command appropriate for the determined situation is not a command that the television user intends to utter, the television will respond to the wake expression.
13 . The television operational method according to claim 11 , wherein the situation includes the determined situation of an application function.
14 . The television operational method according to claim 13 , wherein the application function includes an application function of a smart television or a smart speaker.
15 . The television operational method according to claim 11 , wherein the situation includes a situation sensed by a sensor circuitry.
16 . The television operational method according to claim 15 , wherein the situation includes a situation of a user.
17 . The television operational method according to claim 11 , wherein the external apparatus includes a camera.
18 . The television operational method according to claim 11 , further comprising executing a voice command in a case that the voice command is the voice command appropriate for the situation.
19 . The television operation method according to claim 11 , wherein the external apparatus is an Internet of Things apparatus.
20 . The television operation method according to claim 11 , wherein the voice command appropriate for the determined situation is recognized through processing utilizing cloud services.
