Abstract: Methods and apparatus provide for: performing information processing on the basis of data received from a device that detects a user position; generating an image to be displayed as a result of the information processing; determining that the user needs to be warned when the user position indicates that the user moves out of a play area set in an object space in reference to a detection field of the device, and to cause the image generating section to superpose a warning image on the image to be displayed; and transmitting data of the image generated by the image generating section to a display device, where the transmitting includes outputting, to the display device, a confirmation screen prompting the user to confirm that there is an obstacle, prior to outputting the data of the image.

Abstract: When a device is started up in the first time, for example, an initial image and various kinds of information are displayed and setting inputs are received. In parallel with the above, a photographed image is acquired and calibration is performed. At this time, first, if there is no need for measures by a user such as a direction of a camera is corrected, the calibration is performed. If the measures by the user are needed or the calibration is ended unsuccessfully, the stage number n is advanced by one, and the calibration is repeated while presenting information on the measures in the order of a low burden on the user.

Abstract: A picked up image displaying unit displays a picked up image on a display unit. A face authentication unit detects a face image of a registered user existing in the picked up image using face identification data retained in a registered user information retaining block. A position designation image processing unit displays a position designation image for designating a position of an object for the detected registered user on the display unit. An object authentication unit detects that an object image is included in the region designated by the position designation image.

Abstract: In a real space that includes a user, predetermined rules are used to set boundary surfaces of a play area in reference to boundary surfaces of the field of view of an imaging device. If the user gets out of the play area 181, a warning state determining section determines that there is a need for a warning and superposes a warning image on a display image. A direction in the real space or the state therein, for example, is used to determine whether or not margin areas are to be set between the boundary surfaces of the play area and the boundary surfaces of the field of view, or how wide the margin areas are to be.

Abstract: An image generation device 200 processes content to draw an image (step S22), and corrects the image as needed for display (step S24). When drawing the image, the image generation device 200 adjusts a tone curve according to a user operation for adjusting the brightness expressed by pixel values (step S20). A head-mounted display 100 generates a drive voltage corresponding to the pixel values of image data acquired from the image generation device 200 (step S28) and drives a display panel to display the image (step S30). When generating the drive voltage, the head-mounted display 100 decreases the drive voltage to a ratio based on a user operation for reducing light emission brightness of the display panel (step S26).

Abstract: In an information processing apparatus, a posture data acquiring section acquires output values from a motion sensor of a head-mounted display. Effective rates of acceleration are then obtained by correcting the output values based on correction formulas. A posture is calculated in reference to the axes of the motion sensor based on the acquired rates of acceleration. Thereafter, the posture of the head-mounted display is calculated by performing rotation correction based on previously acquired angle errors, the calculated posture being output to an information processing section. A correction data updating section acquires posture information based on markers of the head-mounted display imaged in a captured image, and updates correction data for use in acquiring the posture from the sensor output values through comparison with the marker-based posture information.
