Abstract

A device control system includes a first input device and a gaze detector. The first input device allows a command to be entered with respect to a target device selected from one or more devices. The gaze detector detects a user's gaze direction. The gaze detector determines, based on the gaze direction detected by the gaze detector, one device, selected from the one or more devices, to be the target device. A gaze detector makes the target device change, based on the gaze direction detected by the gaze detector, the type of processing to be performed in accordance with the command entered through the first input device.
