Original Abstract Submitted
A head mounted display according to the present invention includes: an image sensor configured to capture an image of a real space; a display configured to display the image of the real space captured by the image sensor so as to be visually recognized by a user; and at least one memory and at least one processor which function as: an acquiring unit configured to acquire user information on a state of the user; and a control unit configured to control display on the display so as to reduce saliency of a first object, which is a real object to which a line-of-sight of the user is directed, or of a real object other than the first object, on a basis of the user information.
