1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- circuitry configured toinitiate a display motion of a virtual object displayed by a display device, based on a gesture operation, starting from a point of origin and moving towards a target point; and
continue to display the virtual object in the display motion after the gesture operation until the virtual object reaches the target point,wherein a path of travel of the virtual object or a display characteristic of the virtual object is determined based on a positional relationship between the virtual object and another object that is a real object located in proximity to a direct path of travel of the virtual object from the point of origin to the target point,wherein the target point is determined based on a speed of performing the gesture operation,wherein a mode of display moving the virtual object is changed based on information associated with the real object,wherein the information comprises height information of the real object, andwherein the virtual object is displayed to travel a route of display motion that circumvents a predetermined area of the real object, when the real object has a height taller than a predetermined value.

Abstract
There is provided an information processing apparatus including circuitry configured to initiate display of a virtual object, based on a gesture operation, starting from a point of origin and moving towards a target point; and continue to display the virtual object in display motion after the gesture operation, wherein a path of travel of the virtual object or a display characteristic of the virtual object is determined based on a positional relationship between the virtual object and another object that is a real object located in proximity to the path of travel of the virtual object.

20. An information processing method comprising:
-
displaying a display motion of a virtual object displayed by a display device, based on a gesture operation, starting from a point of origin and moving towards a target point; and continuing to display the virtual object in the display motion after the gesture operation until the virtual object reaches the target point, wherein a path of travel of the virtual object or a display characteristic of the virtual object is determined based on a positional relationship between the virtual object and another object that is a real object located in proximity to a direct path of travel of the virtual object from the point of origin to the target point, wherein the target point is determined based on a speed of performing the gesture operation, wherein a mode of display moving the virtual object is changed based on information associated with the real object, wherein the information comprises height information of the real object, and wherein the virtual object is displayed to travel a route of display motion that circumvents a predetermined area of the real object, when the real object has a height taller than a predetermined value.

21. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a program, which when executed by a computer causes the computer to execute an information processing method, the method comprising:
-
displaying a display motion of a virtual object displayed by a display device, based on a gesture operation, starting from a point of origin and moving towards a target point; and continuing to display the virtual object in the display motion after the gesture operation until the virtual object reaches the target point, wherein a path of travel of the virtual object or a display characteristic of the virtual object is determined based on a positional relationship between the virtual object and another object that is a real object located in proximity to a direct path of travel of the virtual object from the point of origin to the target point, wherein the target point is determined based on a speed of performing the gesture operation, wherein a mode of display moving the virtual object is changed based on information associated with the real object, wherein the information comprises height information of the real object, and wherein the virtual object is displayed to travel a route of display motion that circumvents a predetermined area of the real object, when the real object has a height taller than a predetermined value.
