Abstract

Acquisition means of a display control device acquires taken images taken at a predetermined frame rate by image taking means, which is movable in a real space. First display control means estimates a current position and orientation of the image taking means based on the taken images, and combines a virtual image with one of the taken images to be displayed, the virtual image showing a view of a virtual three-dimensional object as seen from a virtual viewpoint based on a result of the estimation. Second display control means processes, in a frame subsequent to a frame on which the first display control means has performed display control, the virtual image based on movement information on a movement of the image taking means, and combines the processed virtual image with another one of the taken images to be displayed.
