1. A modality controlling apparatus, comprising:
a display configured to display an input object for inputting an instruction for controlling one of a plurality of first modalities and a status object indicating a status related to a second modality; and
processing circuitry configured to display the input object in a first section of the display and to display the status object in a second section of the display, which is a section smaller than the first section,
wherein in response to a user log-in, the processing circuitry is further configured to display the input object in the first section of the display to allow the user to input an instruction for controlling a particular first modality, which is one of a first modality associated with an ID of the user, a first modality positioned closest to the modality controlling apparatus and a first modality that was operated by the modality controlling apparatus before a log-out from the modality controlling apparatus.
