Display terminal, display control system and display control method
A display terminal having a display includes a color image camera and a distance image camera for acquiring a color image and a distance image of a predetermined photographing range, respectively, and a display control unit for displaying a virtual object on the display. The display control unit includes a space recognition unit for using the color image and the distance image to generate a three-dimensional map of a structural object, a display data generation unit for generating display data in which a rear region of the virtual object behind the structural object in a line-of-sight direction is specified, based on the three-dimensional map and real space placement position data of the virtual object, and the display correction unit for correcting the display data to display operation points of the rear region, which accept an operation instruction to the virtual object, and displaying it on the display.
1. A display terminal including a display, the display terminal comprising:
a color image camera configured to acquire a color image of a predetermined photographing range;
a distance image camera configured to acquire a distance image of the predetermined photographing range; and
a display control unit configured to display a virtual object on the display,
wherein the display control unit includes:
a space recognition unit configured to use the color image and the distance image to generate a three-dimensional map of a structural object existing within the predetermined photographing range;
a display data generation unit configured to generate display data in which a region of the virtual object behind the structural object in a line-of-sight direction is specified as a rear region, based on the three-dimensional map and real space placement position data of the virtual object to be displayed; and
a display correction unit configured to correct the display data and display the display data as corrected on the display,
wherein the display correction unit is configured to correct the display data so as to display operation points of the rear region,
wherein the operation points is points that accept an operation instruction with respect to the virtual object via the operation points, and
when displaying the operation points of the rear region, the display correction unit displays the rear region as well as an additional object around the virtual object.
2. The display terminal according to claim 1 , wherein
the display correction unit displays a part of the color image as the additional object.
3. The display terminal according to claim 1 , wherein
the display correction unit displays, as the additional object, a color image of another structural object which exists behind the structural object in the line-of-sight direction.
4. The display terminal according to claim 1 , wherein
the display correction unit deforms the additional object in response to change in a display direction of the virtual object and displays the additional object as deformed.
5. The display terminal according to claim 1 , wherein
the display correction unit highlights an image prepared in advance, which is different from an image of the structural object, as the additional object and displays the image as prepared.
6. The display terminal according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an audio output device; and
an audio output control unit configured to cause the audio output device to output a sound,
wherein, when displaying the additional object, the display control unit causes the audio output device to output a predetermined sound.
7. The display terminal according to claim 6 , wherein
the display correction unit further displays a string representing the sound.
