ABSTRACT:
An image processing apparatus and an image processing method are provided which are capable of changing display from a virtual space image to a real space image or vice versa, or combining them based on the movement speed of the user's point of gaze while the user is moving in a virtual space. An image processing program and a medium recording the same are also provided. In the image processing apparatus, when the movement of a head mounted display (HMD) in the virtual space is detected (Step S111), the movement speed is calculated (Step S112) and it is determined whether the movement speed is equal to or greater than akm/h. When the movement speed is slower than akm/h, an updated virtual space image reflecting the movement of the HMD is created for display (Steps S114and S118). When the movement speed is equal to or greater than akm/h, the real image then being taken is displayed as it is (Steps S115and S118).
