Abstract: Viewers of a computer game can send reactions such as graphic-based reactions to another person playing the computer game. The reactions are then used to trigger in-game power-ups such as health power-ups and character ability power-ups. In some examples, meeting certain criteria for the reactions may trigger the power-up, such as a threshold number of reactions being received within a threshold period of time and/or a particular sequence of different reactions being received.

Abstract: Provided are a sound output control apparatus, a sound output control system, a sound output control method, and a program that can appropriately thin out the output of pieces of sound data. A sound data reception section receives a plurality of pieces of sound data transmitted from transmission apparatuses that are different from each other. A selection section selects a portion of the plurality of pieces of sound data on the basis of at least one of a result of a voice activity detection process performed on each of the pieces of sound data or moving averages of volumes of sounds represented by the pieces of sound data. A sound data transmission section outputs the selected portion of the pieces of sound data.
