Display control apparatus to perform predetermined process on captured image

A display control apparatus comprising:

• a body which is wearable on a head of a person;
• a display which is provided on the body so as to be viewable by the person while the body is worn on the head of the person;
• a plurality of image capture units which are provided on the body and which capture images in different directions;
• and
• a processor that is configured to:
• acquire, from the image capture units, a plurality of captured images having different image capture directions that change in accordance with a movement of the person while the body is worn on the head of the person;
• detect a behavior of the person;
• execute control to produce an output so as to switch to one of the acquired captured images, and to display the switched-to captured image on the display in response to the detected behavior of the person;
• further determine whether or not the detected behavior of the person is sudden behavior that exceeds a predetermined threshold;
• and
• execute control to prevent a sudden switch when switching to display the switched-to captured image on the display, in response to a result of the determination about the behavior.

• a processor that is configured to:
• acquire, from the image capture units, a plurality of captured images having different image capture directions that change in accordance with a movement of the person while the body is worn on the head of the person;
• detect a behavior of the person;
• process the acquired captured images so as to generate a display image having one of predetermined image capture directions in response to the detected behavior of the person, the predetermined image capture directions being fixed image capture directions that are independent of the detected behavior of the person;
• and
• execute control to display the generated display image on the display.

• detect a behavior of the person;
• further determine whether or not the detected behavior of the person is sudden behavior that exceeds a predetermined threshold;
• and
• execute control to display the acquired captured images side by side on the display and further, in response to a result of the determination about the detected behavior of the person, execute control to switch to one of the acquired captured images and to display the switched-to captured image on the display in a manner that allows the switched-to captured image to be distinguished from others of the captured images.

• and
• a processor that is configured to:
• acquire, from the image capture units, a plurality of captured images having different image capture directions that change in accordance with a movement of the person while the body is worn on the head of the person;
• detect (i) a behavior of the person or (ii) a moving situation of an image of a subject in the acquired captured images;
• and
• execute control to produce an output so as to switch to one of the acquired captured images, and to display the switched-to captured image on the display in response to the detected behavior of the person or the detected moving situation of the image of the subject,
• wherein the processor is configured to execute the control to display the switched-to captured image while flipping the switched-to captured image from side to side when an image capture direction of the switched-to captured image is a direction facing a rear side of the person.

• and
• execute control to produce an output so as to switch to one of the acquired captured images, and to display the switched-to captured image on the display in response to the detected behavior of the person or the detected moving situation of the image of the subject,
• wherein the display includes two display regions visually recognizable independently by corresponding ones of eyes of the person, and
• wherein the processor is further configured to:
• detect a moving direction of the image of the subject;
• and
• execute control to produce an output so as to provide different displays in the two display regions in response to the detected moving direction of the image of the subject.

• a plurality of image capture units which are provided on the body and which capture images in different directions that change in accordance with movement of the person when the body is worn on the head of the person, the image capture units being provided at respective positions that allow capture of an omnidirectional image;
• and
• a processor that is configured to:
• acquire an omnidirectional image captured by the image capture units;
• detect (i) a behavior of the person or (ii) a moving situation of an image of a subject in the acquired captured images;
• and
• execute control to produce an output so as to make a switch to a part of the acquired omnidirectional image and to display the switched-to part of the acquired omnidirectional image on the display, in response to the detected behavior of the person or the detected moving situation of the image of the subject.
