The invention provides a control apparatus, an agent apparatus, and a computer-readable storage medium, which solve the problem that a user sometimes feels hesitant to speak a start word when there are others around, for example. The control apparatus controls an agent apparatus functioning as a user interface of a request processing apparatus that acquires a request indicated by a voice of a userand performs a process corresponding to the request. The control apparatus includes a gaze point specifying section that specifies a gaze point of the user, and a state determining section that makesa determination to change a state of the agent apparatus from a standby state of processing an activation request for starting a response process via the agent to an activation state of processing arequest other than the activation request via the agent, if the gaze point is positioned at (i) a portion of the agent used to transmit information to the user or (ii) a portion of an image output section that displays or projects an image of the agent.
一种控制装置、智能体装置以及计算机可读存储介质,解决例如在周围存在他人的情况下,对于用户而言有时对说启动词感到犹豫的课题。该控制装置控制作为请求处理装置的用户界面发挥功能的智能体装置,所述请求处理装置获取由用户的语音表示的请求,并执行与该请求对应的处理。控制装置具备确定用户的注视点的注视点确定部和在注视点位于(i)向用户传递信息时所利用的智能体的一部分或(ii)对智能体的图像进行显示或投影的图像输出部的一部分的情况下,决定将智能体装置的状态从待机状态变更成启动状态的状态决定部,待机状态是处理用于开始经由智能体的响应处理的启动请求的状态,启动状态是经由智能体处理启动请求以外的请求的状态。
