ABSTRACT:
An information processing apparatus generates and displays a mixed reality image in which a plurality of subjects have virtual objects by their hands. The apparatus includes a unit for measuring a position of the hand of the subject, a unit for measuring a view position and a view direction of the subject, and a unit for generating the virtual object and synthesizing the virtual object with the real space image. Also included is an upcast action detecting unit for calculating a shifting speed of the hand in an upward direction and for detecting an upcast action, a unit for judging that the hand is stopped and a determining unit for determining a partner subject to whom the virtual object is upcast.
