For example, the interactive robot 1'is provided with a camera 18, an input unit 16, and an output unit 17, and the information processing device 10'provides location providing information based on the image data acquired by the interactive robot 1'. You may create it. That is, in this case, the information processing apparatus 10'acquires the image data acquired by the camera 18 of the interactive robot 1', creates the location providing information based on the acquired image data, and stores the image database 40 and the database 40. Information may be stored. As described above, the image database 40 and the database 41 may be provided in the information processing device 10', or are stored in a server on the Internet or the cloud, and the information processing device 10'is stored as needed. It may be a mode to access these databases.

Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a function for controlling a recorder (for example, a DVD recorder, a television receiver with a recording function, etc.) 50 for recording video content such as a television program is added to the information processing apparatus 10', and the following functions are added. As described above, the image data may be acquired. Here, the recorder 50 has, for example, a function of recording a moving image content (for example, a television program or the like) being broadcast.

For example, when the user is watching a TV program together with the interactive robot 1', it is assumed that the user inputs an instruction to record the program information. In this case, the interactive robot 1'transmits an information recording instruction to the information processing device 10'. Upon receiving the information recording instruction, the information processing device 10'instructs the recorder 50 to record the program currently being broadcast for a predetermined period of time. As a result, the recorder 50 records the program that the user is watching. At this time, the recording period can take various forms, for example, until the next commercial is started, a predetermined period set in advance, or until the program ends.

The image data of the program recorded in this way, or the duplicated data thereof, is transmitted to the information processing device 10'in real time or after the recording is completed. The information processing device 10'creates location providing information by analyzing and processing the received image data, stores the location providing information in the database 41, and stores the image data in the image database 40. The image database 40 may store all the image data received from the recorder 50, or may be image data obtained by cutting out only the image data of the program for which the user has instructed to record from all the image data.

In addition, some recorders 50 have a function of recording all the programs being broadcast. In this case, the program has already been recorded when the user instructs the information recording. Therefore, in this case, the information processing device 10'is used for a predetermined period (for example, a predetermined period) from a time retroactive to a predetermined period (for example, 5 minutes before) from the instruction of the user's information recording, and the next The recorded data (until the start of the commercial, the end of the program, etc.) may be cut out and acquired as image data. By doing so, it is possible to acquire all the information of the program that the user is interested in.

Further, when the meta information of the program (reporter's name, detailed information about the place where the report was broadcast and the product) is stored in the server on the Internet, the information processing device 10'accesses the server and of the program. The location providing information may be created by acquiring the metadata and using the acquired metadata and the image data acquired from the recorder 50.

In addition to the above programs that are broadcast in real time, for example, when an instruction to record information is input from the user while watching a recorded program, the recorded data currently being played is used by the user. The image data may be acquired by duplicating the recorded data for a predetermined period from the time retroactive to the predetermined period from the instruction of information recording.

Further, when the information processing device 10'does not have a function of controlling the recorder 50, the image data can be acquired by functioning in cooperation with another information processing device having such a function. And analysis and the like may be realized.

Further, regarding the acquisition of image data using the recorder 50, it is not necessary to use the camera 18 mounted on the interactive robot 1', so that the interactive robot 1'can be omitted, for example. That is, the information recording instruction may be directly input from the user to the information processing device 10'. This instruction input may be, for example, a predetermined input operation for the information processing device 10', or may be instructed by voice when the information processing device 10'has a voice recognition function.

Further, the position information acquisition unit 33, the extraction unit 34, and the information provision unit 35 regarding the presentation of the location provision information to the user may also be realized by the cooperation between the interactive robot 1'and the information processing device 10'. For example, the interactive robot 1'is provided with a GPS function, that is, a position information acquisition function, and the position information acquired by the user and the interactive robot 1'is transmitted to the information processing device 10', and the information processing device is used. In 10', the place providing information according to the place is extracted, and the extracted place providing information is transmitted from the information processing device 10' to the interactive robot 1', so that the information is sent to the user via the interactive robot 1'. It may be provided.
