Head-mounted display and information display apparatus

Abstract

To provide a head-mounted display and an information display apparatus that match the intuition of the user and are excellent in operability. A head-mounted display 1 according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a reception unit 12, an image display element 14, and a display processing unit 132. The reception unit 12 receives an operation signal including information on a relative position of a detection target in contact with an input operation surface 21, which is output from the input device 2. The image display element 14 forms an image V 1 presented to a user. The display processing unit 132 causes, based on the operation signal, the image display element 14 to display an operation image V 10 with an auxiliary image P indicating a position of the detection target being overlapped on the image V 1.

The application is claimed as follows: 
     
         1 . A head-mounted display, comprising:
 a reception unit configured to receive
 an operation signal including information on a relative position of a detection target in contact with an input operation surface, which is output from an input device, and 
 information on a contact pressure of the detection target against the input operation surface; 
   a head-mounted image display element configured to form an image including a plurality of GUIs; and   a display processing unit configured to
 cause, based on the received first operation signal, the head-mounted image display element to display an operation image with an auxiliary image indicating a position of the detection target being overlapped on the image, 
 cause, based on the relative position and the contact pressure, the image display element to change a display mode the image, 
 select a GUI as a selection candidate from the plurality of GUIs based on the relative position of the detection target, and 
 execute display processing which corresponds to the selected GUI on the image display element if the contact pressure of the detection target against the input operation surface in a target area of the input operation surface exceeds a threshold pressure amount.
