1. An information processing apparatus, comprising:

  • a Central Processing Unit (CPU) configured to;

    determine a haptic delay time of a haptic output based on a virtual distance between a user viewpoint position and an occurrence position of a virtual event and based on a distance from a display screen to a user position in a real space;

    control display of a visual output on the display screen, output of a sound output by a sound output device, and output of the haptic output by a vibration actuator;

    delay the haptic output based on the determined haptic delay time,wherein the determined haptic delay time elapses from a time at which the visual output of the virtual event is displayed on the display screen; and

    control the vibration actuator to generate the delayed haptic output based on the virtual event,wherein the vibration actuator is different from the sound output device.
