1. A display device comprising:
- an outside light detecting section that detects an outside light from an outside area outside of the display device, in a visual field of a user of the display device, and detects a hand-held control device overlapping the visual field in the outside light;
a display section that outputs an image light to overlap with the outside light and causes a combined image to be viewed based on the outside light and the image light overlapping with the outside light; and
an operation detecting section that detects an input operation in a case where the hand-held control device is detected by the outside light detecting section to be overlapping with the visual field at a position corresponding to an input detection area that is virtually set,whereinthe input detection area is divided into a plurality of operation target areas each corresponding to one of a plurality of input operations,the operation detecting section detects which input operation to perform based on which one operation target area of the plurality of operation target areas the hand-held control device is positioned to overlap in the visual field, andthe hand-held control device is a light source device that includes a lighting section that emits a predetermined light.

11. A control method of a display device mounted on a head of a user and that includes an outside light detecting section that detects an outside light from an outside area outside of the display device, in a visual field of a user of the display device, and detects a hand-held control device overlapping the visual field in the outside light, and a display section that outputs an image light to overlap with an outside light and causes a combined image to be viewed based on the outside light and the image light overlapping with the outside light, the method comprising:
-
detecting an input operation in a case where the hand-held control device is detected by the outside light detecting section to be overlapping with the visual field at a position corresponding to an input detection area that is virtually set, wherein the input detection area is divided into a plurality of operation target areas each corresponding to one of a plurality of input operations, the input operation to be performed is detected based on which one operation target area of the plurality of operation target areas the hand-held control device is positioned to overlap in the visual field, and the hand-held control device is a light source device that includes a lighting section that emits a predetermined light.
