Information Processing Device Target Identification Voice Output
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing information processing devices struggle to accurately identify and provide information about a target pointed by a user in a three-dimensional space, especially when multiple objects are present, leading to recognition mismatches and incorrect notifications.
Innovation Solution
An information processing device with an indication target detection unit, an information generation unit that generates explanatory information including content and additive information based on visually recognizable characteristics, and an output control unit to provide voice output, which compares and controls the information amount to ensure accurate identification of the target.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If voice notification is provided with only basic content information, then the notification is simple and quick, but the user cannot accurately identify the target among multiple similar objects
Solution Approach 1:
The notification information is segmented into two distinct types: basic content information (name, type) and additive information (visually recognizable characteristics). This segmentation allows the system to provide different levels of information detail while maintaining clear information structure, enabling users to accurately identify targets among similar objects without being overwhelmed by excessive information.
Solution Approach 2:
Additive information providing visually recognizable characteristics (color, shape, size) is applied locally to specific targets based on their individual identification needs. This allows the system to enhance information for targets that are difficult to identify while keeping notifications simple for easily distinguishable targets, optimizing the balance between information completeness and notification simplicity.
2Measurement precision
If detailed information about the target is provided, then the user can accurately identify the target, but the notification becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies partial information provision by providing additive information only when necessary for accurate target identification. Rather than always providing complete detailed information, the system selectively adds visually recognizable characteristics based on the specific context and target type, reducing unnecessary notification time while maintaining identification accuracy when needed.
3Loss of information
If the system provides information about the target, then the user gains knowledge about the pointed object, but the user may not notice when the recognized target mismatches the intended target
Solution Approach 1:
The notification system provides feedback to the user by verbally presenting both basic content information and additive visually recognizable characteristics of the recognized target. This feedback mechanism allows users to verify whether the recognized target matches their intended target by comparing the provided characteristics with their visual observation, enabling them to detect recognition mismatches that would otherwise go unnoticed.

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to an information processing device and an information processing method, which are capable of acquiring accurate information associated with a desired target which is pointed by a user. The information processing device includes an indication target detection unit that detects an indication target that is pointed by an indicating object. An information generation unit generates explanatory information that includes content information indicating visually recognizable content of the indication target and additive information indicating visually recognizable characteristics associated with the indication target. An output control unit controls output of a voice of the explanatory information.
