Abstract

An image display processor displays a three-dimensional image within a visible range of a player's automobile on a display monitor depending on the position and direction of the player's automobile which is controlled by a player's automobile control unit. A mirror display processor determines whether a displayed mirror is within the visible range of the player's automobile or not based on the position and direction of the player's automobile. When the mirror is within the visible range of the player's automobile, the mirror display processor generates a reflected image. The image display processor then horizontally inverts the generated image, and displays the horizontally inverted image in superposed relation to the displayed mirror.
