Abstract
An image signal is received from a camera and a signal is received from each of a number of sensors. For each sensor, a position of a signal source is estimated based on the signal from the sensor. For each sensor, information on a situation expression expressing a situation is extracted based on the signal from the sensor. The situation expression for each sensor is superimposed on a captured image by the camera and the captured image superimposed with the situation expression for each sensor is output. In a case in which the sensors are located at different positions and the situation expression for each sensor overlap at least partially on the captured image, an overlapping order of the situation expressions for the sensors superimposed on the captured image is determined based on a distance between the camera and each sensor.
