Abstract
A method for controlling a head mount display (HMD) according to one embodiment comprises the steps of detecting a 3D printer as a first marker through a camera unit; displaying a first augmented reality image of a shape of a 3D object on the basis of the detected first marker before the 3D object is output by the 3D printer; detecting the 3D object, which is output from the 3D printer, as a second marker if the 3D printer starts to output the 3D object; updating the first augmented reality image to a second augmented reality image on the basis of the first marker and the second marker; and displaying the second augmented reality image.
