Abstract

A head-mounted display including a display unit, a detector, and a first control unit. The display unit is mountable on a head of a user and capable of providing the user with a field of view of a real space. The detector detects an azimuth of the display unit around at least one axis. The first control unit includes a region limiter, a storage unit, and a display control unit. The region limiter is capable of limiting a display region of the field of view along a direction of the one axis in three-dimensional coordinates surrounding the display unit. The storage unit stores images including information relating to a predetermined target present in the field of view with the images being made corresponding to the three-dimensional coordinates. The display control unit is configured to display, based on an output of the detector, an image in the three-dimensional coordinates, which corresponds to the azimuth, in the field of view.
