Abstract

An image processing technology for displaying a real object and a virtual object associated with each other is provided. An image analysis apparatus according to the present invention changes a motion pattern of the virtual object depending on the actual movement of the real object. The change detector 110 detects temporal state change in the motion pattern of the real object captured by an imaging apparatus and the display controller 120 reads a motion pattern from the motion pattern storage 122 based on the event generated by the state change of an image. The display pattern controller 122 controls display mode of the virtual object using the read motion pattern.
