Abstract

An application processing system provides an interaction with a virtual character to a user, the application processing system having one or more computer processors and being configured to output an image of a virtual space including the virtual character to a head mounted display mounted on a head of the user. In one aspect, the one or more computer processors execute computer-readable instructions to: specify a first action associated with a motion of the head of the user in the virtual space and performed toward the virtual character, based on one or more detection information items obtained by the head mounted display; and specify, in response to selection of a specific object included in the virtual space, a second action not associated with a motion of the head of the user in the virtual space and performed toward the virtual character, based on the one or more detection information items.
