Abstract: A control apparatus controls the controller device that is mounted on a hand of a user and includes a plurality of sensors exceeding the number of fingers of the user to be detected so as to detect bending and stretching of the fingers to be detected. The control apparatus identifies a width of the hand of the user, determines, on the basis of information regarding the identified width of the hand, to which sensor among the plurality of sensors each of the fingers to be detected is assigned, and uses an output of the sensor assigned to each of the fingers to be detected to identify and output a state of bending and stretching of the corresponding finger.

Abstract: A controller device which is connected to an information processing apparatus and is to be worn on a user's hand. The controller device includes a device body to be gripped by the user, in which a sensor outputting a sensor output based on a change in a shape of a base part of the finger is disposed on the device body in a position so as to come into contact with the bases of at least some fingers of the user when the user grips the device body. The controller device receives information output from the sensor and related to the change in the shape of the base parts of the fingers of the user, and sends out the information to the connected information processing apparatus.

Abstract: A sheet body 30 includes first and second sheets 40 and 60 that transmit infrared radiation. A rear face of the first sheet 40 is opposed to a front face of the second sheet 60. An information code is marked on a front or rear face of the second sheet 60 by using an infrared absorbing material. The rear face of the first sheet 40 and the front face of the second sheet 60 are stuck together with a highly infrared transmitting adhesive. The front face of the first sheet 40 is marked with a pattern using an infrared transmitting material that is visible when visible radiation is irradiated onto the pattern.
