VIDEO DISPLAY SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM

A video display system includes: an observation device including a capturing unit that captures a wide-angle video, a data obtainment unit that obtains data related to a movement direction of the capturing unit, a metadata composition unit that obtains metadata based on the obtained data, and a transmission unit that transmits captured wide-angle video with the metadata; and a VR device including: a reception unit that receives the wide-angle video and the metadata; an orientation estimation unit that estimates an orientation of the display device; a differential calculation unit that calculates a relative movement direction of the capturing unit based on a difference between the orientation of the display device and the movement direction of the capturing unit in the metadata; a presentation unit that presents the calculated relative movement direction to a user of a display device; a video generation unit that generates a display video including part of the received wide-angle video; and a VR device including a display device that displays the display video.
