Abstract
The invention is directed to a method and system for displaying an image generated by at least one camera (11) on an image displaying means (13), comprising the steps of generating at least one image (15) by the camera (11) capturing at least one real object (12), displaying the image (15) on the image displaying means (13), analysing (2.1A, 2.1B, 2.1C) at least one characteristic property of the at least one image and/or of the camera when generating the image, and automatically determining whether the at least one image (15) is to be displayed on the image displaying means (13) in mirrored fashion, or not, depending on the at least one characteristic property. The method and system is capable of automatically determining whether the at least one image is to be displayed in mirrored fashion, or not, depending on the particular situation.
