1. A signal processing apparatus, comprising:
an information acquisition unit configured to acquire state information that indicates a state of a user, wherein the state of the user includes a posture of the user;
a tactile signal acquisition unit configured to acquire a reference tactile signal to perform tactile presentation to the user in a reference state, wherein the reference state of the user includes a reference posture of the user;
a determination processing unit configured to determine that a difference, between the posture of the user and the reference posture of the user, exceeds a threshold; and
an adjustment processing unit configured to disable an adjustment of the reference tactile signal based on the determination that the difference exceeds the threshold.
