Abstract
A captured image obtaining section obtains a captured image resulting from capturing in a front direction of a user wearing a head-mounted display (HMD). An estimation processing section estimates the position of an input device on the basis of the captured image in which a controller (input device) including a gripping portion to be gripped by the user after the user inserts a hand through a curved portion appears. A display control section displays the captured image resulting from capturing in the front direction of the user on the HMD. The display control section further displays an object indicating a part to be gripped by the user together with the captured image on the basis of an estimation result of the position of the input device.
