[0003]
In addition, when using an optical magnifying device with a high magnification, a magnified image of the work site occupies the entire or most of the visual field, and a machine tool or a finger is applied to the work site by a lip or the like as in a dental oral region. When it is impossible to reach the obstacle directly, it is difficult to remove or avoid the obstacle while visually confirming the obstacle.
[0004]
In order to photograph and record a work site while the worker uses both hands by himself, it is necessary to fix the camera using a tripod or the like or to have a third party hold the camera.
[0005]
Furthermore, when shooting and recording an adjacent work site in the same view as the worker's view, the worker's head may interfere with the shooting, or the camera body may interfere with the worker's view. In particular, when the direction of the field of view is limited, such as in a dental oral region, it has been difficult to image a record without interrupting surgery, treatment, and the like.
[0006]
In addition, when the instructor attempts to visually give an instruction to the worker, it is necessary to point to the work target using a pointing stick or the like near the worker and give the verbal instruction. In addition, when the worker is watching the work field from a remote location, and the subject is a human, the instructor gives visual instructions and voices within the worker's visual field without being known by a third party or patient. It was impossible to give instructions by
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The problem to be solved is to automatically secure any magnification regardless of the magnification and the distance between the worker's head and the work site
[0008]
When working at a high magnification, the center of the field of view is set to a high magnification, and the fields of view other than the center are displayed at the same magnification or at a low magnification,
[0009]
If the worker records information of the same work field of view as the worker during work using both hands, ensure the freedom of both hands of the worker,
[0010]
With the worker gazing at the work site, the instructor can directly give visual and audio instructions to the worker's visual field monitor without being recognized by a third party from a remote location. The purpose is to give.
