In a positioning system configured to perform positioning using N mobile terminals, where N is an integer of two or greater, each of the mobile terminals includes a positioning device, a communication device configured to exchange information with another mobile terminal using wireless communication, and a battery configured to supply power to the positioning device and the communication device. Each of first mobile terminals that are some of the mobile terminals activates the positioning device to perform positioning of a first current position, and a second mobile terminal other than the first mobile terminals reduces at least power to be used by the positioning device, and uses information of the first current position positioned by the first mobile terminal, and the information exchanged with the first mobile terminal by the communication device to perform positioning of a second current position.

Positioning system, mobile terminal, and program

An HMD is coupled to a smart phone. The HMD displays a first image overlapping an external scene in a left display unit, and displays a second image corresponding to the first image overlapping the external scene in a right display unit. The smart phone includes a display panel displaying a third image, a first detector detecting that at least one of the first image and the second image overlaps the third image, and an adjustment unit adjusting, based on a detection result of the first detector, at least one of the first image and the second image such that the third image is visible.

Display system, control program for information processing device, method for controlling information processing device, and display device

A head mounted display capable of controlling maneuver of an unmanned vehicle, the head mounted display including a display section that allows visual recognition of an outside scene, a GNSS information acquisition section that acquires a GNSS information, a communication section capable of performing communication using wireless communication with the unmanned vehicle, and a control section, wherein the control section evaluates whether or not the unmanned vehicle has entered a visual field visually recognizable through the display section in a case where the unmanned vehicle travels in an automatic navigation mode in which the unmanned vehicle moves toward a position indicated by the GNSS information and causes the unmanned vehicle to terminate the travel in the automatic navigation mode but travel in a specific navigation mode different from the automatic navigation mode in a case where the control section determines that the unmanned vehicle has entered the visual field.

An endoscope operation support system includes: an image display unit which, transmits external scenery and allows the user to visually recognize the external scenery, and also displays a virtual image as superimposed on the external scenery and allows the user to visually recognize the virtual image; a control unit which controls the image display unit; an endoscope unit having an image pickup unit at a distal end part inserted in an image pickup target part of an object, the image pickup unit picking up an image inside the image pickup target part; and a position detection unit which detects a position of the distal end part. The control unit causes the image display unit to display a position display image including a pointer image indicating the position of the distal end part detected by the position detection unit, as the virtual image superimposed on the object in the external scenery.

Endoscope operation support system

A head-mounted display device includes a left optical-image display unit that displays an image corresponding to the left eye of a user and a right optical-image display unit that displays an image corresponding to the right eye of the user. An image processing unit divides a display target image and outputs an image for left eye and an image for right eye including divided images to the left optical-image display unit and the right optical-image display unit. The image for left eye and the image for right eye include image regions configured by the images divided by the image processing unit and non-image regions not including the divided images. A state of the non-image region of one of the image for left eye and the image for right eye corresponds to a state of the image region of the other.

Display device, control method for display device, and program

To provide an information processing device that enables program development in program development for an information processing devices, in which a developer does not have to be aware of the types of input/output devices to be used. An information processing device includes a plurality of input/output devices used by a computer program for executing any processing and a main control section configured to operate, according to a request received from the computer program, the request designating functions required by the computer program, at least a part of the input/output devices associated with the functions among the plurality of input/output devices.

A head-mounted display device includes an image display section capable of displaying an image in a display region, a visual-line-direction specifying section configured to specify a visual line direction of a user, and an image changing section configured to change, according to the specified visual line direction, a display image displayed in the display region.

Head-mounted display device, control method for head-mounted display device, and computer program

A head mounted display device includes an imaging unit that images an outside scene, an image display unit that displays an image and is capable of transmitting the outside scene, an electronic watermark acquisition unit that acquires an electronic watermark image embedded such that watermark information is not visually recognized by a user from a captured image of the outside scene, and a display image control unit that displays a watermark information corresponding image associated with the watermark information embedded in the acquired electronic watermark image on the image display unit.

Head mounted display device, control method for head mounted display device, and computer program

An information processing apparatus including an imaging section that performs imaging over a range including at least part of a user's field of view and a control section that detects the user's operation based on an image captured by the imaging section and estimates a target object from objects contained in the captured image in accordance with the detected operation.

Information processing apparatus, display apparatus, information processing method, and program

An information distribution system includes an image display apparatus including a position identification section that identifies the position of the image display apparatus, a first communication section, and a control section; and an information processing apparatus including a storage section that stores content information, a second communication section, and a selection section. The selection section selects at least two contents from a plurality of contents stored in the storage section based on the received position of the image display apparatus. The second communication section distributes content information on the selected at least two contents to the first communication section. The control section sets one content in the received content information as a first content and causes the image display section to display the set first content and the contents other than the first content in the distributed content information in different display forms.
