Abstract

See full text

A gaze determination area is provided to an image displayed on a VR-HMD. An object that has been displayed within the gaze determination area for a time equal to or longer than a given time is determined to be a gaze object (cup object). First-level menu display objects that respectively represent first-level menu items among menu items having a hierarchical structure that are set to the object are displayed in an array in a reference direction that is defined with respect to the gaze object. When the user has turned his/her head so that the desired first-level menu display object is displayed within the gaze determination area, and the desired first-level menu display object has been detected to be the gaze object, the first-level menu item is selected, and second-level menu display objects that are lower than the selected first-level menu item are displayed.
