To provide a technique which allows movement of a virtual object to be controlled as if it were a real person or animal.SOLUTION: A terminal device comprises: a display; first imaging means; management means which manages an emotion parameter representing emotions of a virtual object; and display processing means which determines a placement position of the virtual object and, if the placement position is included in a first captured image captured by the first imaging means, displays the virtual object over the first captured image on the display on the basis of the emotion parameter so that the virtual object is in the placement position. The management means takes a position and orientation of the first imaging means as one of factors which change the emotion parameter.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】仮想物体の動作をより現実の人間や動物の様に制御することができる技術を提供する。【解決手段】端末装置は、ディスプレイと、第１撮像手段と、仮想物体の感情を表現する感情パラメータを管理する管理手段と、前記仮想物体の配置位置を決定し、前記第１撮像手段が撮像した第１撮像画像に前記配置位置が含まれる場合、前記感情パラメータに基づき、前記配置位置に前記仮想物体がある様に前記仮想物体を前記第１撮像画像に重畳させて前記ディスプレイに表示する表示処理手段と、を備えており、前記管理手段は、前記第１撮像手段の位置及び方向を、前記感情パラメータを変更する要因の１つとすることを特徴とする。【選択図】図２
