Claim One:
1. A mixed reality space image generation method for generating a mixed reality space image formed by superimposing a virtual space image onto a real space image obtained by capturing a real space, comprising: obtaining information of location and orientation of an observer; obtaining information of location and orientation of a real object; extracting an object region from the real space image; generating a first virtual space image based on the information of location and orientation of an observer; first superimposing the first virtual space image onto the real space image other than the object region; and second superimposing a second virtual space image onto the superimposed image generated in the first superimposing step based on the information of location and orientation of an observer, wherein the first and second virtual images are generated based on the information of location and orientation of the real object and the information of location and orientation of the observer, and wherein said steps are performed on a computer.
