Abstract

An information processing apparatus according to the present technology includes a housing, a display section, a pressure-sensitive sensor, and a control section. The housing has a front surface and a sub-surface including an operation area and is capable of being held by a user. The display section is arranged on the front surface. The pressure-sensitive sensor detects a pressure value with respect to the sub-surface. The control section identifies a status that the operation area is operated by the user and a status that the operation area is held by the user on the basis of the pressure value, and executes predetermined processing on the basis of an operation by the user with respect to the operation area in a case where the status is determined that the operation area is operated.
