PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide technology for reducing the feeling of operation resistance of an object to be operated on, such as a cursor, by an implementation requiring a smaller burden than before.SOLUTION: A motion information calculation unit 2 calculates motion information including the speed and acceleration of an object to be operated on, which is displayed later than the operation of an operator, on the basis of an operation signal for operating the object to be operated on, the signal being generated on the basis of the operation of the operator. A feeling of resistance calculation unit 3 calculates, on the basis of the motion information, the feeling of resistance of the object to be operated on, as an index having a larger absolute value in correspondence with an increase in acceleration proceeding in the advance direction of the object to be operated on. A video adjustment unit 4 renders the object to be operated on less conspicuous when the feeding of resistance increases. 【課題】従来よりも負担が小さい実装でカーソル等の操作対象物の操作抵抗感を軽減する技術を提供する。【解決手段】運動情報計算部２が、操作者の操作に基づいて生成された操作対象物を操作するための操作信号に基づいて、操作者の操作に対して遅れて表示される操作対象物の速度及び加速度を含む運動情報を計算する。抵抗感計算部３が、操作対象物の抵抗感を、その操作対象物の進行方向に向かう加速度が大きいほど大きな絶対値を持つ指標として、運動情報に基づいて、操作対象物の抵抗感を計算する。映像調整部４が、抵抗感が大きくなるときに操作対象物を目立たなくする。【選択図】図１
