Abstract
An apparatus includes a light source configured to emit a light beam based on image data, a projection unit configured to project the light beam onto a pupil of a user, and at least one processor and a memory coupled to the processor storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to function as: an obtaining unit configured to obtain position information on a projection area through which the light beam to be projected onto a retina of the user passes, and a control unit configured to control a projection image to be projected onto the retina with the light beam based on the image data. The control unit controls the light source such that the projection image is changed based on the position information on the projection area and a position of the light beam.
