Abstract: A display control apparatus includes a display control section, a space information acquisition section, and a reporting section. The display control section generates a virtual space image by specifying a viewpoint position and a direction of line of sight and displays the image on a head-mounted display. The space information acquisition section acquires information related to a position of an object existing in a space around a user wearing the head-mounted display. The reporting section informs the user that the object exists around the user when a distance between the head-mounted display and the object becomes smaller than a given value.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus acquires, in regard to a subject in a three-dimensional space, unit element information including information regarding a position, in the space, of each of plural unit elements configuring the subject, draws a space image indicative of a state of a virtual space in which the plural unit elements are arranged using the unit element information, and specifies a posture of the subject in the three-dimensional space on the basis of a result obtained by executing a posture estimation process targeting a two-dimensional image for the drawn space image.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus connected to a display device to be mounted on the head of a user acquires panoramic image data representing a captured image around the user and generates background image data representing the panoramic image data projected onto a projection plane having a predetermined shape that is virtually disposed around the position of a user's viewpoint in a virtual space. The image processing apparatus synthesizes model image data generated on the basis of predetermined three-dimensional model data with the background image data, thereby generating synthesized image data, and outputs a visual field image of the user generated on the basis of the synthesized image data to the display device.
