Abstract

An image projection device includes: a projection unit that irradiates a pupil 40 of an eyeball 36 of a user with an image light beam 34a forming an image to project the image onto a retina 38 of the eyeball; a detection unit that detects a direction 52 in which the pupil has moved relative to a face of the user; and a control unit that controls the projection unit based on a detected direction in which the pupil has moved so that the pupil is irradiated with the image light beam and the image is moved in a direction opposite to the direction in which the pupil has moved with respect to a position on which the image has been projected before a move of the pupil in a coordinate system visually recognized by the user.
