First Claim
1. An image processing apparatus characterized by comprising:
- first measurement means for measuring a position/posture of photographing means for photographing an object such as a performer or the like;
second measurement means for measuring a position/posture of the object such as the performer or the like;
first image composition means for aligning and compositing CG (Computer Graphics) data at a viewpoint of the photographing means and image data photographed by the photographing means on the basis of a measurement result of said first measurement means;
second composition means for aligning and compositing CG data at a viewpoint of a display means and image data of real image based on the position/posture of the object on the basis of a measurement result of said second measurement means; and
display control means for displaying the image data formed by said second composition means on the display means.

Abstract
This invention has as its object to provide a high-quality composite image of a real image and virtual image to a viewer or the like. To achieve this object, the position/posture of photographing means for photographing a performer or the like is measured, the position/posture of an HMD, which the performer or the like wears, and which allows the viewer to see through the external world, is measured, a CG at the viewpoint of the photographing means and image data photographed by the photographing means are aligned and composited on the basis of the measurement result of the position/posture of the photographing means, CG at the viewpoint of the HMD and image data photographed by a camera built in the HMD are aligned and composited on the basis of the measurement result of the position/posture of the HMD, and image data is displayed on the HMD.
