Abstract
A visual-field information collection method is capable of collecting visual-field information of a user wearing a head mounted display without applying a large calculation load to a processor. The visual-field information collection method to be executed by a processor includes arranging, in a virtual space in which a user wearing an HMD is immersed, a virtual camera that defines a visual axis for specifying a visual field of the user. The method includes determining the visual axis in accordance with one of a movement of the HMD and a line-of-sight direction of the user. The method includes determining whether or not the visual axis is moved from a predetermined first position to a predetermined second position. The method includes generating movement information representing that the visual axis is moved when the visual axis is moved from the predetermined first position to the predetermined second position.
