Abstract: There is provided an excellent image display device allowing observation of a surrounding scene by a video see-through method. While an authentication process is being performed, a head-mounted display 100 superimposes, and displays, an authentication screen on a video see-through image captured by an outside camera 312. Accordingly, a user is enabled to observe the surrounding scene by the video see-through image during the authentication process. Even when using the head-mounted display 100 while walking outdoors, the user is enabled to constantly grasp his/her surroundings, and the safety may be secured.

Abstract: A wide angle image to be displayed on a screen fixed on the head or the face of a user is processed. When a display view angle reaches a boundary of an original wide angle image 701, an indicator 703 indicating reaching the boundary is added to a free viewpoint image 702. The indicator 703 is apart of the free viewpoint image 702 which is in contact with a boundary 704 of the wide angle image 701 or protrudes from the boundary 704 and is displayed as a black-painted frame. By observing such the indicator 703, the user can intuitively understand that the display area reaches the limit of the wide angle image.

Abstract: [Object] To propose an information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program capable of allowing users to share their viewpoints or lines of sight in a situation where a plurality of users share a content for which the users can move their viewpoints or line-of-sight directions. [Solution] Provided is an information processing apparatus including: an acquisition unit configured to acquire line-of-sight information indicating a first user's line of sight detected in response to presentation of a content; and a management unit configured to associate the acquired line-of-sight information with the content as control information for controlling the presentation of the content to a second user different from the first user.
