Head mount display
First Claim
1. A head mount display comprising:
- a display unit which is configured to transmit an ambient light therethrough, and is configured to project an image light corresponding to image data onto an eye of a user in order to allow the user to observe an image corresponding to the image light;
an imaging unit which is configured to image at least a portion of a field of view of the user;
an image analyzing unit which is configured to analyze an image imaged by the imaging unit;
a hand detection unit which is configured to detect a hand of the user based on a result of an analysis performed by the image analyzing unit;
a touch panel which is configured to detect a contact of the hand of the user therewith;
a position definition unit which is configured to define a display position to display a virtual operation panel such that the virtual operation panel tracks the hand of the user which is observed by the user through the display unit;
a display control unit which is configured to control the display unit such that the display unit displays the virtual operation panel at the display position;
an operation determination unit which is configured to determine whether or not the virtual operation panel is operated based on a touch position of a finger of the user detected by the touch panel; and
an operation control unit which is configured to perform a control corresponding to an operation position on the virtual operation panel when the operation determination unit determines that the virtual operation panel is operated, andwherein the position definition unit defines a first specified portion of the hand of the user as a reference position based on a position of the hand of the user detected by the hand detection unit, and defines a position which always assumes a predetermined positional relationship with the reference position and which is within a display area displayed by the display unit as the display position.

Abstract
A HMD photographs at least a portion of a field of view of a user, and detects a hand of the user based on a result of analysis of an imaged image. The HMD performs a control of deciding and displaying a position of an operation part of a virtual operation panel based on a position of the detected hand of the user. A position associated with the hand visible to the user is set as a display position of the virtual operation panel which tracks the position of the hand of the user. The HMD determines whether or not the virtual operation panel is operated based on a contact position of a finger of the user detected by a touch panel, and performs a control corresponding to an operation position of the virtual operation panel when it is determined that the virtual operation panel is operated.
