Abstract
Provided is an information processing apparatus, including: a line-of-sight detection unit configured to detect lines of sight of a plurality of users with respect to presentation information; and an area determination unit configured to determine, on the basis of the detected lines of sight of the plurality of users, a shared area that is visually recognized by the plurality of users to share information and a confidential area that is not visually recognized by another user to keep information of each user confidential.
Claims11
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor configured to:
- acquire visible area information of a visible area of a user of a plurality of users with respect to a presentation surface;
- determine an object placed on the presentation surface;
- correct the visible area information based on each of a position of the object on the presentation surface and a height of the object;
- determine, on the presentation surface, a shared area for the plurality of users and a confidential area for the user, based on the corrected visible area information;
- control display of content including share information and confidential information, wherein
- the confidential information is displayed in the confidential area,
- the share information is displayed in the shared area,
- the share information not being needed to be secured, and
- the confidential information being needed to be secured in the shared area;
- determine a movement of the content including the share information and the confidential information from the confidential area to the shared area;
- and
- control, based on the determination of the movement of the content, non-display of at least a part of the confidential information to one of hide or delete the part of confidential information.
A method, comprising:
- acquiring visible area information of a visible area of a user of a plurality of users with respect to a presentation surface;

- and
- controlling, based on the determination of the movement of the content, non-display of at least a part of the confidential information to one of hide or delete the part of confidential information.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer-executable instructions, which when executed by a processor of a first information processing device, cause the processor to execute operations, the operations comprising:
- acquiring visible area information of a visible area of a user of a plurality of users with respect to a presentation surface;
- determining an object placed on the presentation surface;
- correcting the visible area information based on each of a position of the object on the presentation surface and a height of the object;
- determining, on the presentation surface, a shared area for the plurality of users and a confidential area for the user, based on the corrected visible area information;
- controlling display of content including share information and confidential information, wherein
- the confidential information is displayed in the confidential area,
- the share information is displayed in the shared area,
- the share information not being needed to be secured, and
- the confidential information being needed to be secured in the shared area;
- determining a movement of the content including the share information and the confidential information from the confidential area to the shared area;
- and
- controlling, based on the determination of the movement of the content, non-display of at least a part of the confidential information to one of hide or delete the part of confidential information.
