The endoscope system also comprises one or more sensors located in a headrest and configured to detect an input at the headrest. The endoscope system also comprises a control module configured to receive one or more sensor signals from the one or more sensors.

The control module is also configured to adjust the image content displayed by the display in response to the one or more sensor signals.
