Abstract
An information processing device and information processing method capable of outputting an action based on an intention of the user. The information processing device including an action deciding unit that determines an action for a user on a basis of a distance from the user and an output control unit that outputs the action.
Claims15
An information processing device, comprising:
- circuitry configured to:
- determine speech of a first user of a plurality of users based on an approaching speed of the first user toward the information processing device, wherein
- the speech indicates intention of the first user to interact with the information processing device, and
- the approaching speed of the first user is one of equal to or greater than a threshold value;
- specify the first user from the plurality of users as a target user based on the determined speech;
- select a first action of a plurality of actions for the first user based on the determined speech of the first user;
- output the first action to the first user;
- store output information of the first action, wherein the output information indicates a time at which the first action is output to the first user;
- specify a second user, of the plurality of users, other than the first user as the target user in a case where a second action is output to the first user within a specific time period of the output of the first action to the first user, wherein the second action and the first action are same;
- and
- output the second action to the second user.

An information processing method, comprising:
- in an information processing device:
- determining, by a processor of the information processing device, speech of a first user of a plurality of users based on an approaching speed of the first user toward the information processing device, wherein
- the speech indicates intention of the first user to interact with the information processing device, and
- the approaching speed of the first user is one of equal to or greater than a threshold value;
- specifying the first user from the plurality of users as a target user based on the determined speech;
- selecting, by the processor, a first action of a plurality of actions for the first user based on the determined speech of the first user;
- outputting the first action to the first user;
- storing output information of the first action, wherein the output information indicates a time at which the first action is output to the first user;
- specifying a second user, of the plurality of users, other than the first user as the target user in a case where a second action is output to the first user within a specific time period of the output of the first action to the first user, wherein the second action and the first action are same;
- and
- outputting the second action to the second user.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer executable-instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to execute operations, the operations comprising:
- determining speech of a first user of a plurality of users based on an approaching speed of the first user toward an information processing device, wherein
- the speech indicates intention of the first user to interact with the information processing device, and
- the approaching speed of the first user is one of equal to or greater than a threshold value;
- specifying the first user from the plurality of users as a target user based on the determined speech;
- selecting a first action of a plurality of actions for the first user based on the determined speech of the first user;
- and
- outputting the first action to the first user;
- storing output information of the first action, wherein the output information indicates a time at which the first action is output to the first user;
- specifying a second user, of the plurality of users, other than the first user as the target user in a case where a second action is output to the first user within a specific time period of the output of the first action to the first user, wherein the second action and the first action are same;
- and
- outputting the second action to the second user.
