Abstract: A motion detection section detects a motion exceeding a permissible limit in a wide-viewing-angle image displayed on a head-mounted display. A field-of-view restriction processing section restricts a field of view for observing the wide-viewing-angle image in a case in which the motion exceeding the permissible limit has been detected in the wide-viewing-angle image. An image provision section provides, for the head-mounted display, the wide-viewing-angle image in which the field of view has been restricted.

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: A control device generates a first image in which, together with an object in the real world appearing in an image captured by a camera of a robot, a virtual object appears and which presents an exterior appearance of the virtual object while the position of the camera of the robot is set as a view-point. An HMD displays the first image generated by the control device. In a case in which the position of the HMD in the height direction changes, the control device generates a second image from which the object in the real world is deleted and which presents the exterior appearance of the virtual object viewed from a new view-point according to the change in the position of the HMD in the height direction. The HMD displays the second image in place of the first image.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus is connected to a device fixed to a hand of a user, the device including a finger position sensor configured to detect a direction of a fingertip regarding one of an index finger, a middle finger, a ring finger, and a little finger of the hand of the user. The information processing apparatus acquires, on the basis of the direction of the fingertip regarding the one of the index finger, the middle finger, the ring finger, and the little finger detected by the finger position sensor and received from the device, information regarding an angle between the finger and a finger adjacent to the finger and estimates, on the basis of a result of the acquisition, an angle between respective fingers of the index finger, the middle finger, the ring finger, and the little finger of the hand of the user.
