Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a storage, a sensor, a controller, and a sound output unit. The storage is capable of storing a plurality of sound information items associated with respective positions. The sensor is capable of detecting a displacement of one of the information processing apparatus and a user of the information processing apparatus. The controller is capable of extracting at least one sound information satisfying a predetermined condition out of the plurality of stored sound information items and generating, based on the detected displacement, multichannel sound information obtained by localizing the extracted sound information at the associated position. The sound output unit is capable of converting the generated multichannel sound information into stereo sound information and outputting it.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to an information processing device capable of spatially arranging sound information and outputting the sound information, and an information processing method and program for the information processing device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the amount of information obtained by users has increased. Along with the mobility of information terminals, users can always connect to the Internet and obtain information at home or even outside. Therefore, how the user extracts desired information from these information items and presents the information is important. [0003] Information obtained by users from information terminals connected to the Internet is roughly classified into visual information and sound information. With regard to visual information, due to the development of video display technology, including improvements in image quality and resolution, and advances in graphical representation, there ...
