Abstract

A display apparatus includes a camera that outputs live motion images, a recorded motion image output section that outputs recorded motion images produced, a reversed motion image formation section that forms reversed motion images produced by reversing the live motion images, a skin color image extraction section that extracts images having a skin color from the live motion images and reverses the extracted images to form skin color reversed motion images, a motion image display section having a first display section and a second display section, and a display content setting section that sets display contents that are contents to be displayed in the first display section and the second display section, and the display content setting section selects contents to be displayed motion image display section from the live motion images, the recorded motion images, the reversed motion images, and the skin color reversed motion images.

Claims

1. A display apparatus comprising:

a live motion image output section that outputs live motion images;

a recorded motion image output section that outputs recorded motion images;

a reversed motion image formation section that reverses the live motion images to form reversed motion images;

a skin color image extraction section that extracts images having a skin color from the live motion images and reverses the extracted images to form skin color reversed motion images;

a motion image display section having a first display section and a second display section; and

a display content setting section that sets display contents that are contents to be displayed in the first display section and the second display section,

wherein the live motion images, the recorded motion images, the reversed motion images, and the skin color reversed motion images are settable as the display contents.

2. The display apparatus according to claim 1,

wherein the display content setting section causes a setting screen that prompts input of the display contents to be displayed, and

the setting screen, which is formed of a single setting screen, allows both the display content in the first display section and the display content in the second display section to be set.

3. The display apparatus according to claim 1,

wherein the live motion images are displayed in one of the first display section and the second display section, and the recorded motion images are displayed in the other.

4. The display apparatus according to claim 1,

wherein the motion image display section is a light-transmissive head-mounted display, and

when no motion images are displayed in the first display section or the second display section, a scene having passed through the motion image display section is visible.

5. A display apparatus comprising

a motion image display section having a first display section and a second display section,

wherein live motion images are displayed in one of the first display section and the second display section, and motion images different from the live motion images are displayed in the other.

6. The display apparatus according to claim 5,

wherein the motion images are recorded motion images produced by capturing images of guidance action.

7. The display apparatus according to claim 5,

wherein the motion images are reversed motion images produced by reversing the live motion images.

8. The display apparatus according to claim 5,

wherein the motion images are skin color reversed motion images produced by extracting images having a skin color from the live motion images and reversing the extracted images.

9. A display method comprising

displaying motion images in a first display section and a second display section by using one of the following combinations:

a first combination in which recorded motion images are displayed in the first display section and live motion images are displayed in the second display section;

a second combination in which the live motion images are displayed in the first display section and reversed motion images produced by reversing the live motion images are displayed in the second display section; and

a third combination in which recorded motion images are displayed in the first display section and the second display section.

10. The display method according to claim 9,

wherein in the second combination, skin color reversed motion images produced by extracting images having a skin color from the live motion images and reversing the extracted images are displayed in the second display section.

11. A program that causes a computer to function as:

a live motion image output functional section that outputs live motion images;

a recorded motion image output functional section that outputs recorded motion images;

a reversed motion image formation functional section that reverses the live motion images to form reversed motion images;

a skin color image extraction functional section that extracts images having a skin color from the live motion images and reverses the extracted images to form skin color reversed motion images; and

a display content setting functional section that sets display contents that are contents to be displayed in a first display section and a second display section,

wherein the live motion images, the recorded motion images, the reversed motion images, and the skin color reversed motion images are settable as the display contents.
