Information processing device, control method, and program
There is provided an information processing device, control method, and program that can improve convenience of a speech recognition system by deciding an appropriate response output method in accordance with a current surrounding environment. A response to a speech from a user is generated, a response output method is decided in accordance with a current surrounding environment, and control is performed such that the generated response is output by using the decided response output method.
1. An information processing device comprising:
a decision unit configured to decide a notification type of acquired notification information, the notification type indicating whether or not all users of a plurality of users can recognize the notification information; and
an output control unit configured to perform control such that an output method and whether initial notification of the notification information is postponed are determined on the basis of a current surrounding user environment and the notification type of the notification information, and in a case where the initial notification is not postponed, the notification information is initially output by using the determined output method,
wherein the decision unit decides whether the notification type of the notification information is Public all, Public person, Private group, or Private person,
wherein the output control unit determines whether the initial notification is postponed in accordance with whether the notification type of the notification information is Public or Private and whether the current surrounding user environment is suitable for the notification type,
wherein Private person indicates that only a specific user of the plurality of users can recognize the notification information,
wherein the output control unit determines that the initial notification is postponed in accordance with the notification type of the notification information being Private person and the current surrounding user environment being not suitable for only the specific user being able to recognize the notification information,
wherein, in a case the output control unit determines that the initial notification is postponed, the initial notification is added to a queue for the initial notification when the output control unit determines the initial notification is allowed, and
wherein the decision unit and the output control unit are each implemented via at least one processor.
2. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the decision unit decides the notification type of the notification information on the basis of a notification content of the notification information.
3. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the decision unit decides the notification type of the notification information on the basis of a notification target of the notification information.
4. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the decision unit decides the notification type of the notification information on the basis of an application that is a source of the notification information.
5. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,
wherein, in a case where the notification type is Private and the current surrounding user environment is an environment in which it is impossible to ensure secrecy, the output control unit performs specific output control such that the secrecy is ensured.
6. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,
wherein, in the case where an external display device outputs information, the output control unit performs control such that a display provided on the information processing device outputs display indicating the external display device.
7. A control method to be used by a processor, the control method comprising:
deciding a notification type of acquired notification information, the notification type indicating whether or not all users of a plurality of users can recognize the notification information; and
performing control such that an output method and whether initial notification of the notification information is postponed are determined on the basis of a current surrounding user environment and the notification type of the notification information, and in a case where the initial notification is not postponed, the notification information is initially output by using the determined output method,
wherein the deciding of the notification type includes deciding whether the notification type of the notification information is Public all, Public person, Private group, or Private person,
wherein the determination of whether the initial notification is postponed is in accordance with whether the notification type of the notification information is Public or Private and whether the current surrounding user environment is suitable for the notification type,
wherein Private person indicates that only a specific user of the plurality of users can recognize the notification information,
wherein the initial notification is determined to be postponed in accordance with the notification type of the notification information being Private person and the current surrounding user environment being not suitable for only the specific user being able to recognize the notification information, and
wherein, in a case that the initial notification is determined to be postponed, the initial notification is added to a queue for the initial notification in a case that the initial notification is determined to be allowed.
8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a program, which when executed by a computer causes the computer to execute a method, the method comprising:
deciding a notification type of acquired notification information, the notification type indicating whether or not all users of a plurality of users can recognize the notification information; and
performing control such that an output method and whether initial notification of the notification information is postponed are determined on the basis of a current surrounding user environment and the notification type of the notification information, and in a case where the initial notification is not postponed, the notification information is initially output by using the determined output method,
wherein the deciding of the notification type includes deciding whether the notification type of the notification information is Public all, Public person, Private group, or Private person,
wherein the determination of whether the initial notification is postponed is in accordance with whether the notification type of the notification information is Public or Private and whether the current surrounding user environment is suitable for the notification type,
wherein Private person indicates that only a specific user of the plurality of users can recognize the notification information,
wherein the initial notification is determined to be postponed in accordance with the notification type of the notification information being Private person and the current surrounding user environment being not suitable for only the specific user being able to recognize the notification information, and
wherein, in a case that the initial notification is determined to be postponed, the initial notification is added to a queue for the initial notification in a case that the initial notification is determined to be allowed.
9. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,
wherein Public all indicates that all users of the plurality of users can recognize the notification information,
wherein Public person indicates that only users in a specific group of the plurality of users can recognize the notification information, and
wherein Private person indicates that only a specific user of the plurality of users can recognize the notification information.
10. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,
wherein Private person indicates that only a specific user of the plurality of users can recognize the notification information,
wherein, in the case where the notification type is Private person and the current surrounding user environment is an environment in which it is impossible to ensure secrecy, the output control unit performs specific output control such that the determined output method ensures that only the specific user can recognize the notification information, and
wherein, when the current surrounding user environment is an environment in which it is impossible to ensure secrecy, the notification information is initially output by using the determined output method so that only the specific user can recognize the notification information.
