INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE AND METHOD, ATTENTION LEVEL-CALCULATING DEVICE, AND PROGRAM

摘要

As a result of notices of new people being detected that are sequentially supplied by a bio-information recognition system (21), a DB registration-updating unit (275) registers, in a patron management DB (276), the behavior history of each player in association with camera IDs that identify the cameras that have captured images of the player. On the basis of information in the patron management DB (276), a potential player-determining unit (275e) considers a player, whose length of stay in a specific corner is longer than a prescribed period and who is not playing, to be a potential player who wants to play but is unable to play. An attention level DB management unit (275g) registers, in an attention level DB (289), the points proportional to the lengths of stay of potential players in said corner as the attention level by cumulatively storing the points for each game console (36). An attention level display control unit (278) displays the information on the players' attention level that is registered in the attention level DB (279). The present technology can be utilized as a technology that is appropriate for calculating usage rate when investigating which kinds of machines to exchange.
