Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus including a file generation unit that generates a file including speech waveform data and vibration waveform data. The file generation unit cuts out waveform data in a to-be-synthesized band from first speech data, synthesizes waveform data extracted from a synthesizing band of vibration data with the to-be-synthesized band to generate second speech data, and encodes the second speech data to generate the file.

Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program for performing more appropriate haptic presentations. The information processing apparatus includes a signal processing section configured such that in a case where the presentation timing of a first presentation with haptic sensation based on first data overlaps with the presentation timing of a second presentation with either haptic sensation or a sound based on second data, the signal processing section generates a haptic signal for controlling a haptic presentation device performing at least the first presentation based on sensory characteristic data regarding the haptic sensation and on the first data in such a manner that a combined sensory effect on a user receiving both the first presentation and the second presentation becomes an effect merging a first sensory effect of the first presentation with a second sensory effect of the second presentation.
