TERMINAL APPARATUS, OPERATING METHOD, AND PROGRAM

A display unit is configured to display visual information that is visually recognized and superimposed on an external scene. A detection unit is configured to detect an event possibly causing danger by visually recognizing the visual information. A mounting unit is configured to be mountable on a head of a user and support the display unit and the detection unit. A controller is configured to suppress display of the visual information on the display unit in a case that the event is detected. Embodiments of the present invention can be applied to any of a terminal apparatus, a communication method, or a program.

An image generating section reads image data from an image storing section to generate an original image in keeping with the attitude of a head-mounted display. A lens distortion correcting section generates a primary image by correcting beforehand the original image in a manner canceling out the distortion thereof that appears when viewed through lenses of the head-mounted display. A different image embedding section generates an embedded image by embedding a different image into an unused area of a rectangular format for transmitting the primary image. An HDMI transmitting section transfers the embedded image to the head-mounted display.

Implementations described herein generally relate to the use of display screens. More specifically, implementations generally relate to a large format transmissive and self-emissive display screen where the display screen includes multiple screens coupled together using transparent adhesive tape. Implementations described herein minimize internal reflections visible to screen viewers when an edge of the adhesive layer is scanned by a beam spot produced by a scanning beam in a scanning beam system having multiple screens held together by the adhesive layer to form a seamless viewing screen. In some implementations, the internal reflections are minimized by applying the adhesive layer between horizontal and vertical seams between each screen of the multiple screens wherein the adhesive layer has non-straight edges so as to minimize the total surface area of the edge of the adhesive layer that falls within the beam spot produced by the scanning beam.

Image display apparatus with light adjusting members

An image display apparatus includes image displaying sections that present displayed images to a user and allow the user to visually recognize outside light, a first light adjusting member that is disposed on an outside-facing side of the image displaying sections and adjusts the transmittance based on outside light incident on the first light adjusting member, and a second light adjusting member that is disposed between the image displaying sections and the first light adjusting member and adjusts the transmittance in accordance with the transmittance of the first light adjusting member.
