Abstract

The present technology relates to a display device and a display control method that enable improvement of user experience. Provided is a display device including: a control unit that, when displaying a video corresponding to an image frame obtained by capturing a user on a display unit, controls luminance of a lighting region including a first region including the user in the image frame and at least a part of a second region of the second region excluding the first region to cause the lighting region to function as a light that emits light to the user. The present technology can be applied, for example, to a television receiver.

Claims (48)

1 . A display device comprising:

a control unit that, when displaying a video corresponding to an image frame obtained by capturing a user on a display unit, controls luminance of a lighting region including a first region including the user in the image frame and at least a part of a second region of the second region excluding the first region to cause the lighting region to function as a light that emits light to the user.

2 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the display unit functions as a mirror reflecting the user by displaying a video of a mirror image or normal image of the user, and

the light functions as a light used when the user puts on makeup.

3 . The display device according to claim 2 , wherein

the control unit superimposes various information on the video of the user included in the first region by AR technology.

4 . The display device according to claim 3 , wherein

the control unit displays a video in which makeup is applied to a video of a face of the user.

5 . The display device according to claim 4 , wherein

the control unit displays information regarding cosmetics and applies makeup according to the cosmetics selected by the user.

6 . The display device according to claim 3 , wherein

the control unit displays a video in which a video of at least one of an accessory or a costume is superimposed on the video of the user.

7 . The display device according to claim 2 , wherein

the control unit displays a video in which predetermined video processing is performed on a background video included in the second region.

8 . The display device according to claim 7 , wherein

the control unit performs blurring processing on the background video or synthesis processing for synthesizing the video of the user and another background video.

9 . The display device according to claim 2 , wherein

the control unit controls a color temperature of the lighting region and emulates ambient light according to a situation.

10 . The display device according to claim 2 , wherein

the control unit displays a video of a tutorial moving image according to makeup of the user.

11 . The display device according to claim 10 , wherein

the control unit controls reproduction of the tutorial moving image according to a sound operation of the user.

12 . The display device according to claim 10 , wherein

the control unit displays a video of a site of the user to be a target of makeup in a partially enlarged manner, which is a part of a video of a face of the user included in the first region.

13 . The display device according to claim 5 , further comprising:

a communication unit that communicates with a server via a network,

wherein

the communication unit accesses a server that provides a site for selling a product including the cosmetics and exchanges information regarding the product according to an operation of the user.

14 . The display device according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a communication unit that communicates with a server via a network,

wherein

the communication unit accesses a server that provides an SNS and transmits an image after completion of makeup of the user according to an operation of the user.

15 . The display device according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a recording unit that records data of a video of the user included in the first region,

wherein

the control unit displays the video of the user in a time-shifted manner on a basis of the data recorded in the recording unit.

16 . The display device according to claim 2 , wherein

the lighting region includes a region including a region of at least a part of upper, lower, left, and right regions of a display screen in the display unit, or includes a donut-shaped region, and

the control unit controls luminance of the lighting region according to brightness of the lighting region.

17 . The display device according to claim 2 , wherein

the display unit displays a video of content in a case where a position of the user is out of a predetermined range and functions as a mirror reflecting the user in a case where the position of the user is within the predetermined range.

18 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the display unit includes a liquid crystal display unit, and

the control unit controls luminance of a backlight provided with respect to the liquid crystal display unit.

19 . The display device according to claim 1 being configured as a television receiver.

20 . A display control method wherein

a display device, when displaying a video corresponding to an image frame obtained by capturing a user on a display unit, controls luminance of a lighting region including a first region including the user in the image frame and at least a part of a second region of the second region excluding the first region to cause the lighting region to function as a light that emits light to the user.
