く。The display control unit 23 controls the display position of the icon generated by the icon generation unit 24 on the display, and includes a coordinate conversion unit 231 and a coordinate reversal unit 232. The coordinate conversion unit 231 converts the coordinates of the captured image to the display coordinates of the display, and the coordinate inversion unit 231.
232 inverts the horizontal position of the converted display coordinates. That is, the barycentric coordinates in the image of the portion corresponding to the user's hand detected by the position detection unit 224 are converted into the display coordinates on the display, and the left and right coordinates are reversed to display the icon on the display. . By this operation, when the user moves his or her hand to the right, the icon moves to the right on the display screen in the same manner as when this action is mirrored.
