Abstract: There is provided an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program that make it possible to control a communication partner without losing a sense of immersion and without impairing a VR world view in communication between players in (virtual reality) VR. A range in which another player capable of recognizing a content spoken by a player is present is determined as an utterance range on the basis of context information. In the following, since the spoken information is transmitted only to the player who is confirmed as the utterance range, it is possible to control the partner at the time of utterance by the context information. The present disclosure is able to be applied to an information processing device.

Abstract: There is provided an information processing device and an information processing method that enable speeding up of a responsivity of a system response to a speech of a user. The information processing device includes a processing unit configured to determine, on the basis of a result of semantic analysis that is to be obtained from an interim result of speech recognition of a speech of a user, presence or absence of a response to the speech of the user. It thereby becomes possible to speed up a responsivity of a system response to the speech of the user. The present technology can be applied to a speech dialogue system, for example.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus including an output control unit that controls display of a user interface related to a recognition application. The output control unit causes a visual effect to be output to an input field to which a recognition result is input, the visual effect indicating a state related to recognition. Also provided is an information processing method including controlling, by a processor, display of a user interface related to a recognition application. Controlling of the display further includes causing a visual effect to be output to an input field to which a recognition result is input, the visual effect indicating a state related to recognition.

Abstract: It is desirable to provide technology capable of allowing a user to input information more flexibly. Provided is an information processing system including a mode control portion that switches an information input mode from a character-unit input mode to a phrase-unit input mode in a case where a predetermined first trigger is detected when the character-unit input mode is executed as the information input mode.
