Abstract
An example of an image processing system includes a first HMD worn by a first user and a smart device carried by a second user. In a virtual space, a second virtual camera and a second object are placed in accordance with a position of the smart device relative to a reference in a real space. In the virtual space, a first object is placed regardless of a position of the first HMD in the real space, and a first virtual camera is placed at a position relating to a position of the first object. An image of the virtual space including the second object is displayed on the first HMD based on the first virtual camera. An image of the virtual space including the first object is displayed on the smart device based on the second virtual camera.
