A wearable terminal apparatus to be worn by a user for use includes at least one processor. The at least one processor causes a display unit to display a virtual image of a polyhedron located in a space. The at least one processor causes a first image having first information to be displayed on a first surface of the polyhedron and causes a second image having second information to be displayed on a second surface of the polyhedron.

Wearable terminal apparatus, program, display method, and virtual image distribution system

A wearable terminal device is configured to be used by being worn by a user. The wearable terminal device includes at least one processor. The at least one processor causes a display to display a virtual image that is located inside a space and has a first surface and a second surface on an opposite side from the first surface. The at least one processor determines whether the first surface or the second surface is easier for the user to see. When the second surface is determined to be easier to see, the at least one processor causes an image of the first surface of the virtual image to be displayed on the second surface of the virtual image.

Wearable terminal device, program, and display method

A wearable terminal apparatus to be worn by a user for use includes a display unit and at least one processor. The at least one processor causes the display unit to display a virtual image located in a space. The at least one processor changes a display position of a partial image when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the partial image being an image of a partial region included in the virtual image.

Wearable terminal apparatus to change display position of partial image

A wearable device according to an example of embodiments includes a display unit configured to display characters, a detector configured to detect a user's upper limb existing in a real space, and a controller. When a first body motion of allowing one part and the other part of the upper limb to approach each other is detected from a detection result of the detector, the controller executes a character selection process of selecting the characters. The wearable device is attachable to the head.

Wearable device, control method, and control program

As one of aspects of the present invention, a wearable device includes a display having a display area virtually divided into a first area and a second area. When a user's gaze position moves from the first area to the second area while an object corresponding to a predetermined function is displayed within the first area, the predetermined function is executed. The wearable device further includes a controller for detecting a user's gaze position with respect to the display and a user's gaze movement in the display.

There is provided a head mounted display comprising: an interface unit to which a cartridge can be connected; and at least one controller configured to activate a predetermined operation mode according to information acquired from the cartridge when the cartridge is connected to the interface unit.

Head mounted display

There is provided a head mounted display comprising: an interface unit configured to be connected with a cartridge; a determinator configured to determine whether the head mounted display is inside a specific area or not when the cartridge is connected to the interface unit; and at least one controller configured to execute, when the determinator determines that the head mounted display is inside the specific area, an application based on first data that is acquired from the cartridge, and to execute, when the determinator determines that the head mounted display is not inside the specific area, another application based on second data that is acquired from the cartridge.

In one aspect, a head-mounted display includes displays, a front portion formed in such a manner as to surround at least a part of peripheral portions of the displays, and at least one temple portion connected to the front portion. An interface capable of connecting a cartridge thereto is provided in the at least one temple portion.

Head-mounted display

A head-mounted display includes an interface capable of connecting thereto a cartridge of which a return condition is recorded, and a controller configured to determine whether, when the cartridge is connected to the interface, the return condition has been satisfied. When it is determined that the return condition has been satisfied, the controller is configured to execute notification for requesting a user to return the cartridge.

A wearable device can be attached to a particular bodily part of a user. For example, the wearable device can be strapped to one upper limb from among the left and right upper limbs of the user. The wearable device includes a display configured to display images; a muscle activity detector coming in contact with the concerned upper limb, the muscle activity detector configured to detect muscle activity of the concerned upper limb; and a controller configured to detect a bodily motion of the concerned upper limb based on the detected muscle activity, and configured to make the display to perform a predetermined display operation in response to the bodily motion.

Wearable device with muscle activity detector

A head-mounted display according to one aspect includes an interface capable of connecting a cartridge, and a controller configured to execute an application based on data obtained from the cartridge when the cartridge is connected to the interface. The controller is configured to explore other devices existing within an interconnectable area in executing the application, and communicate and connect with other devices associated to the application among other explored devices.

A video camera having a power-On recording standby mode, a power-On recording disabled mode, and a power-saving mode, in addition to power-OFF mode. The power-saving mode is a state in which the time taken to shift to said recording standby mode is shorter than the time taken to shift from power-OFF mode. Switching to the power-saving mode is inhibited when recording on the recording medium is not possible, thereby improving the operability of the video camera for the user. The user is prevented from attempting to record during power saving mode.
