Abstract
A position/posture acquiring unit of image generating apparatus acquires information on the position and posture of the head of a user. A view screen control unit sets a view screen according to the point of view of a user. An original image operating unit disposes an original image in a virtual space and moves the position thereof in response to movement of the point of view of the user. In addition, the original image operating unit calculates the amount of displacement of pixels in such a manner that an object looks fixed. Thereby, the original image operating unit sets a reference vector for each pixel of the image plane. The original image operating unit decides the reference vector by interpolation regarding a pixel for which the reference vector is not set. A displayed image generating unit carries out mapping of the original image onto the view screen by using the obtained reference vectors to generate a displayed image. An output unit outputs the displayed image.
