  • Patent number: 11582441
    Abstract: The occlusion is faithfully expressed even in the binocular vision in the AR display by a head mounted display apparatus or the like. A head mounted display apparatus 10 includes a lens 12, a lens 13, a camera 14, a camera 15, and a control processor 16. A CG image for a right eye is displayed on the lens 12. A CG image for a left eye is displayed on the lens 13. The camera 14 captures an image for the right eye. The camera 15 captures an image for the left eye. The control processor 16 generates the CG image for the right eye in which occlusion at the time of seeing by the right eye is expressed and the CG image for the left eye in which occlusion at the time of seeing by the left eye is expressed, based on the images captured by the cameras 14 and 15 and projects the generated CG image for the right eye and CG image for the left eye onto the lenses 12 and 13. A center of a lens of the camera 14 is provided at the same position as a center of the lens 12.
