Claims17
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display section configured to display an image on a display target object;
- and
- at least one processor configured to:
- detect a position of a user,
- determine a direction from the position of the user toward a reference point, and
- control orientation of the image in accordance with the determined direction,
- wherein the at least one processor is configured to determine a lower part and an upper part of the image, and control the orientation by aligning a direction from the lower part to the upper part with the direction from the position of the user toward the reference point, and
- the direction from the lower part to the upper part is in a plane parallel to the surface of the image.
