Abstract

A processing device includes an acquisition unit that acquires an instruction to specify a conscious behavior of a target that reproduces a behavior of a user, a determination unit that determines a parameter for reproducing an unconscious behavior corresponding to the conscious behavior specified by the instruction from unconscious parameter data in which an identifier of a conscious behavior of the user, an identifier of an unconscious behavior in the conscious behavior, and an index for specifying a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior are associated with each other, and an output unit that outputs a determined parameter to a drive unit TD of the target T, in which a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior varies depending on the conscious behavior.

Claims (24)

1 . A processing device comprising:

an acquisition unit, comprising one or more processors, configured to acquire an instruction to specify a conscious behavior of a target that reproduces a behavior of a user;

a determination unit, comprising one or more processors, configured to determine a parameter for reproducing an unconscious behavior corresponding to the conscious behavior specified by the instruction from unconscious parameter data in which an identifier of a conscious behavior of the user, an identifier of an unconscious behavior in the conscious behavior, and an index for specifying a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior are associated with each other; and

an output unit, comprising one or more processors, configured to output a determined parameter to a drive unit of the target,

wherein a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior varies depending on the conscious behavior.

2 . The processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the unconscious behavior is any one or more of a habit, breathing, and blinking of the user.

3 . The processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior specifies any one or more of a speed, a frequency, and a pattern in the unconscious behavior.

4 . The processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein an index for specifying a parameter of the unconscious parameter data is further associated with a situation of the target,

the acquisition unit further acquires a state of the target, and

the determination unit determines a parameter for reproducing an unconscious behavior corresponding to an acquired situation of the target.

5 . The processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein a situation of the target specifies any one or more of a scene in which the target is positioned and a state of the target.

6 . A processing method comprising:

acquiring an instruction to specify a conscious behavior of a target that reproduces a behavior of a user;

determining a parameter for reproducing an unconscious behavior corresponding to the conscious behavior specified by the instruction from unconscious parameter data in which an identifier of a conscious behavior of the user, an identifier of an unconscious behavior in the conscious behavior, and an index for specifying a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior are associated with each other; and

outputting a determined parameter to a drive unit of the target,

wherein a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior varies depending on the conscious behavior.

7 . A recording non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program processing program, where executing of the program causes one or more computers to perform operations comprising:

acquiring an instruction to specify a conscious behavior of a target that reproduces a behavior of a user;

determining a parameter for reproducing an unconscious behavior corresponding to the conscious behavior specified by the instruction from unconscious parameter data in which an identifier of a conscious behavior of the user, an identifier of an unconscious behavior in the conscious behavior, and an index for specifying a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior are associated with each other; and

outputting a determined parameter to a drive unit of the target,

wherein a parameter for reproducing the unconscious behavior varies depending on the conscious behavior.
