Patent 10070017 was granted and assigned to Sony on September, 2018 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
The present technique relates to an information processing apparatus, a method, and a program allowing for easily controlling video synchronization in image data transmission. The information processing apparatus according to the present technique includes a synchronization cancellation unit configured to cancel synchronization between synchronization timing of a network to which image data are transmitted and synchronization timing of the image data, on the basis of a delay time of image data transmission, an adjusting unit configured to adjust synchronization timing of the image data of which synchronization with the synchronization timing of the network is cancelled by the synchronization cancellation unit, and a synchronization connection unit configured to synchronize the synchronization timing of the image data, which is adjusted by the adjusting unit, with the synchronization timing of the network. The present technique can be applied to, for example, an information processing apparatus.
