Claim:
1. A head-mounted display, comprising: a display unit that is configured to be mountable on a head of a user and is capable of providing the user with a field of view of a real space; a detector that detects an azimuth of the display unit around at least one axis; a region limiter that is capable of limiting a display region of the field of view along a direction of the one axis in three-dimensional coordinates surrounding the display unit; a storage unit that stores images that should be displayed in the field of view with the images being made corresponding to the three-dimensional coordinates; a display control unit that displays, based on an output of the detector, an image in the three-dimensional coordinates, which corresponds to the azimuth, in the field of view; and a second control unit including an image acquisition unit that acquires a plurality of images stored in the storage unit, wherein the region limiter, the storage unit, and the display control unit constitute a first control unit, and the first control unit is configured to request the second control unit to preferentially transmit an image made corresponding to a coordinate position closer to the display region of the field of view in the three-dimensional coordinates.
