HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY APPARATUS, AND DISPLAY METHOD
First Claim
1. A head-mounted display apparatus comprising:
- an image display part configured to display an image;
an optical unit configured to lead the image to an eye of a wearer of the display apparatus;
a light intensity detector configured to detect light intensity of external light;
a dimmer filter configured to vary transmittance to adjust the intensity of the external light reaching the eye of the wearer; and
a controller configured to adjust the transmittance of the dimmer filter and the light intensity of a light source of the image display part based on the light intensity of the external light obtained by the light intensity detector.

14. A head-mounted display apparatus comprising:
-
a visual information collector configured to collect visual information within a visual field range of a wearer; a visual field specifying unit configured to extract predetermined target information from the visual information, and specify a visual field in which the target information exists; an image supply unit configured to supply associated information associated with the target information as an image to the visual field of the wearer; a dimmer filter configured to change transmittance to adjust the intensity of externally introduced light; and a dimmer unit configured to control the transmittance of the dimmer filter to make luminance of visual information other than the associated information existing in the visual field to which the associated information is supplied lower than an original luminance of the visual information. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
