Abstract: A first-person viewpoint image captured by a camera mounted on a radio-controlled model is displayed on a head mount display and is enjoyed. When a whole-sky image captured by a camera unit that is mounted on a model apparatus is reproduced and displayed with a head mount display, a CPU moves the display field so as to offset the motion of the head of a user detected by a posture/location detecting unit. In this manner, an image that follows the motion of the head of the user is displayed. Meanwhile, on the side of the head mount display, a combined image generated by superimposing an AR image as virtual image information on the actual image in the display field is displayed.
