Abstract

An exemplary portable electronic apparatus includes a display provided at a front surface thereof and an infrared camera provided at a side surface thereof. A contour image indicating a contour of a hand of a user included in an image captured by the infrared camera, and a guide frame image indicating a region smaller than an imaging range of the infrared camera, are displayed on the display in perspective form such that the images are obliquely viewed images. Accordingly, it is made easy for the user to recognize the position of the hand in a side surface direction of the portable electronic apparatus, and thus the user can put their hand within a range suitable for a gesture input.
