Abstract
There is provided a control device according to the present technology to improve an accuracy of force sense presentation while preventing hindrance to a free motion of a target part when a user does not touch a virtual object. The control device includes a control unit that controls a force sense presentation apparatus, which includes a first member that is displaced mechanically in conjunction with a motion of a target part of a user, a second member that is displaceable in a direction of coming into contact with or separating from the first member, and a drive part that drives the second member and performs force sense presentation with respect to the target part, such that a driving state of the second member is changed according to a positional relationship between a virtual object and the target part in a virtual space in which the virtual object is arranged.
