==INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18586234 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND MEDIUM

The abstract of this patent application describes an information processing apparatus that acquires play area information about users in a real space and sets play areas based on their movable ranges.

* The apparatus includes processors and memories for processing and storing the play area information.
* It sets a second play area for a user based on whether it overlaps with the first user's play area.
* This technology allows for the efficient management of user interactions in a shared physical space.

Potential Applications:
- Augmented reality gaming
- Virtual reality experiences
- Interactive exhibitions or installations

Problems Solved:
- Managing user interactions in shared physical spaces
- Ensuring user safety and privacy in augmented reality environments

Benefits:
- Enhanced user experiences in shared physical spaces
- Improved user engagement and interaction
- Efficient allocation of virtual spaces in real environments

Commercial Applications:
Title: "Enhancing User Interactions in Shared Physical Spaces"
This technology could be used in theme parks, museums, or interactive events to create immersive and interactive experiences for visitors.

Questions about the technology:
1. How does this technology enhance user interactions in shared physical spaces?
- This technology allows for the efficient management of user movements and interactions in real environments, enhancing the overall user experience.
2. What are the potential privacy concerns associated with setting play areas in shared physical spaces?
- Privacy concerns may arise regarding the collection and use of user data in setting play areas, which would need to be addressed to ensure user trust and safety.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An information processing apparatus includes one or more processors and one or more memories. The one or more processors and the one or more memories are configured to acquire play area information about a first play area indicating a movable range of a first user in a real space, set a second play area indicating a movable range of a second user in the real space, and set the second play area according to whether the first play area overlaps the set second play area.
