Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and recording medium

An information processing method, the method being executed by a first information processing apparatus, and comprising:

• controlling a display to display a first virtual object extending from a second information processing apparatus;
• determining, based on a first control information, a selection of a first measurement mode or a selection of a second measurement mode;
• determining, in the first measurement mode, a plurality of reference points based on a second control information;
• determining, in the first measurement mode, a distance between at least two reference points of the plurality of reference points or an area of a region enclosed by at least three reference points of the plurality of reference points;
• controlling, in the second measurement mode, the display to display a second virtual object based on a third control information;
• and
• controlling, in the second measurement mode, the display to display a third virtual object indicating at least one of length, width, or depth of the second virtual object.

An information processing system, comprising:

• a first information processing apparatus;
• and
• a second information processing apparatus comprising circuitry configured to:
• determine, based on a first control information, a selection of a first measurement mode or a selection of a second measurement mode,
• wherein a distance in the first measurement mode is measured by using at least two reference points based on a second control information,
• wherein, in the second measurement mode, a first virtual object is displayed based on a third control information, and
• wherein the circuitry is further configured to control a display to display a third virtual object extending from the first information processing apparatus.

An information processing system, comprising:

• a second information processing apparatus comprising circuitry configured to:
• determine, based on a first control information, a selection of a first measurement mode or a selection of a second measurement mode,
• wherein a distance in the first measurement mode is measured by using at least two reference points based on a second control information,
• wherein, in the second measurement mode, a first virtual object is displayed based on a third control information, and
• wherein the circuitry is further configured to:
• receive an image of the first information processing apparatus captured by an image capturing device;
• and
• recognize the first information processing apparatus based on the image.
