INFORMATION PROCESSOR
First Claim
1. An information processor comprising:
- a captured image acquisition section configured to acquire a captured image including a face of a user;
a face position identification section configured to identify a position of the face of the user included in the captured image;
an operation area setting section configured to set an operation area at a position on the captured image determined in accordance with the identified face position; and
an operation reception section configured to detect a detection target from within the operation area, and receives, as a user-pointed position, a position on a screen corresponding to a relative position of the detected detection target within the operation area.

Abstract
Provided is an information processor which readily permits operation input to be made so as to point a position on a screen when an operation input is received from a user using a captured image obtained by imaging the user. The information processor acquires a captured image including a user'"'"'s face, identifies the position of the user'"'"'s face included in the acquired captured image, sets an operation area at a position on the captured image determined in accordance with the identified face position, detects a detection target within the operation area, and receives, as a user-pointed position, a position on the screen corresponding to a relative position of the detected detection target within the operation area.
