Abstract
An image capturing and display apparatus includes a plurality of image capturing units, a plurality of display units, and a signal processing unit. The plurality of image capturing units includes a first image capturing unit and a second image capturing unit configured to output a signal corresponding to an incident light quantity higher than that of the first image capturing unit. The signal processing unit generates a single third image signal based on a first image signal from the first image capturing unit and a second image signal from the second image capturing unit, and the plurality of display devices displays images based on the third image signal.

A head mount display comprising:
- a first sensor unit including an avalanche photodiode and configured to acquire a first signal related to a signal from the avalanche photodiode;
- a second sensor unit including a photodiode and a transistor configured to output a signal based on electric charge from the photodiode, and configured to acquire a second signal related to the signal from the photodiode;
- and
- a display unit configured to display information based on at least one of the first signal and the second signal.
Smart glasses comprising:
- a first sensor unit including an avalanche photodiode and configured to acquire a first signal related to a signal from the avalanche photodiode;
- a second sensor unit including a photodiode and a transistor configured to output a signal based on electric charge from the photodiode, and configured to acquire a second signal related to the signal from the photodiode;
- and
