An operation control system for allowing a first virtual object corresponding to a controlled device, said controlled device being operated in response to a given control command, and allowing a second virtual object corresponding to a mobile object, respectively, arranging said first virtual object in a virtual space corresponding to a real space and arranging said second virtual object at a position of said mobile object in said virtual space or the vicinity thereof, respectively, and operating said controlled device corresponding to said first virtual object on the basis of a positional relation between said first virtual object and said second virtual object, the operation control system comprising:
- first storage means for storing first object information regarding a shape and disposed position of said first virtual object in a manner corresponding to said controlled device;
second storage means for storing second object information regarding a shape and disposed position of said second virtual object in a manner corresponding to said mobile object;
control command storage means for storing control commands for the operation of said controlled device in a manner corresponding to said mobile object; and
positional information acquisition means for acquiring positional information specifying the position of said mobile object;
whereby said second object information in said second storage means is updated on the basis of said positional information acquired by said positional information acquisition means, and giving a control command corresponding to said mobile object as said second virtual object, among said control commands in said control command storage means, to said controlled device as said first virtual object upon determining, on the basis of said first object information in said first storage means and said second object information in said second storage means, that an area specified by said shape and disposed position of said first virtual object is overlapped with an area specified by said shape and disposed position of said second virtual object;
wherein said controlled device is operated in response to said given control command.

Abstract
[Object] To provide an operation control system which is capable of allowing users to easily operate a controlled device over different control ranges, respectively.
[Solving Means] When cards 160a and 160b are brought close to a projector 200, a virtual object management device 100 detects an area-in state of each virtual object C or C′ of the cards 160a and 160b with respect to a virtual object A of the projector 200, and notifies the projector 200 of the area-in state of the card service. The projector 200, upon receiving the card service area-in notification, transmits a service linkage initiation request to a card management device 180. Upon receiving an operation command transmitted in response to the initiation request transmission, the projector 200 controls a projection process in response to the received operation command. The card management device 180 transmits the operation command to the projector 200 upon receiving the service linkage initiation request.
