Abstract

A head-mounted display device includes: an image display unit which is mounted on a head of a user and displays an image in such a way that the user can visually recognize an external scene; a camera; a detection control unit which detects an operation with a pointing element, based on a picked-up image picked up by the camera; and an operation control unit which controls the image on the image display unit, based on the operation detected by the detection control unit. If the pointing element is detected from the picked-up image picked up by the camera, the operation control unit causes the image display unit to display a hand-finger image showing at least one of position and shape of the pointing element.
