Abstract
A head mounted display includes an image display unit having an image light generation unit that generates image light based on image data and outputs the image light, the image display unit not only allowing a user who wears the image display unit around user's head to recognize the image light in the form of a virtual image but also transmitting a surrounding scene, and a control unit that compares an index set based not only on luminance of initial image light generated based on initial image data that is original image data but also on illuminance of the transmitted surrounding scene with a first threshold set in advance and causes the image light generation unit to generate display image light that differs from the initial image light in that at least part of the luminance thereof is changed based on a result of the comparison.
