Handwriting support device, handwriting support method and program

A handwriting support device comprising:

• a beam splitter that reflects light from an image display surface such that a virtual image of an image displayed on the image display surface is visible on a writing surface facing the image display surface and transmits the light from a writing surface side such that the writing surface side is visible, and that is disposed with a space between the beam splitter and the writing surface;
• a memory;
• and
• a processor that is coupled to the memory,
• the processor being configured to perform control for non-display of an image object, which overlaps with a real object on the writing surface and does not overlap with a tip of a writing instrument, among a plurality of image objects in a case in which a first image including the plurality of image objects indicating writing target regions is displayed on the image display surface and the real object including the writing instrument is inserted into the space between the beam splitter and the writing surface;
• wherein the handwriting support device further comprises an object position sensor that acquires image data of the real object on the writing surface, and
• wherein the processor is configured to specify the image object to be non-displayed, based on coordinate information of the real object on the writing surface that is obtained from the image data acquired by the object position sensor and coordinate information of each image object provided in advance.
