An HMD includes an image display unit configured to display objects in a display region (VR) overlapping with outside scenery; a storage unit configured to store a process flow data to be used for selecting the objects to be displayed in the display region (VR); and a control unit configured to select any of the objects to be displayed in the display region (VR), based on the selection information, and to control display positions of the objects in a depth direction of the display region (VR) so that a display position of a selected object is different from a display position of another object to be displayed in the display region (VR).

Head-mounted type display device and method of controlling head-mounted type display device

Provided is an image display method for performing drawing in a display region overlapping at least with a part of an external scene in a state in which the external scene is visible. The image display method images a region including the display region, and extracts an operating object from a captured image in which this region is imaged, as a region of a color of the operating object. In accordance with a size of the region of the color thus extracted, a drawing mode of the operating object is changed, and image display in the display region is controlled in accordance with the changed drawing mode. As the control of the image display, for example, performing drawing, and moving or replicating a drawn image is assumed.

Image display device, image display method, and image display program

An head mounted display (HMD) including an image display unit, a camera, a storage unit configured to store information about an image of a object and character information in association with the image of the object, an image detection unit configured to detect an image of a object from a captured image of the camera, a character string generating unit configured to retrieve character information in association with the image of the object detected by the image detection unit from the storage unit, and to arrange a character or character string represented by the retrieved character information in detection order of the object to generate a character string, and an input controller configured to input the character string generated by the character string generating unit to an input area arranged in a user interface.

Head-mounted display apparatus, authentication system, and method for controlling head-mounted display apparatus

Included are an image display unit to be worn on a user U's head and configured to display an image overlapped on outside scenery visually recognizable through the image, a camera, a detection controller configured to detect, under a condition that imaging data of the camera includes an image of a sheet, a marker as an identifiable feature of the sheet from the imaging data, and a display controller configured to determine, based on the marker detected by the detection controller, a position for the image to be displayed, and to display the image at the position being determined.

Head-mounted display apparatus and method for controlling head-mounted display apparatus for determining position of image to be displayed

An HMD includes an image display unit that is mounted on a head of a user and includes a display region configured to display an image while an outside scene is visible, a first camera, a detecting unit configured to detect a movement of the user's fingers based on a captured image captured by the first camera and to receive an operation based on the detected movement of the fingers, and a display control unit configured to determine whether the detecting unit is ready to detect the operation based on the movement of the fingers, and to display a determination result in the display region.
