Abstract
In an image generation apparatus, a viewpoint information acquisition section acquires information regarding a viewpoint of a user wearing a head-mounted display. A real space information acquisition section acquires information regarding a real space where the user and an information provider are present. A viewpoint control section moves the viewpoint in display from a user's viewpoint to another person's viewpoint including an object present in the real space in a field of view. An image generation section generates an image relative to the determined viewpoint and outputs the image from an output section.
