In wearable computing environments, an optical see-through head mounted display (HMD) is one of the most suitable wearable devices for displaying information. Although the HMD can display information without interfering with the user's view, the displayed information is difficult to see when the HMD background is too complex or too bright. We have created an information layout method for the optical see-through HMD that takes the background into account. It determines the ideal area for displaying objects by evaluating the HMD background captured by a camera.
