1. A remote control system comprising a user apparatus connected to a display unit and a remote operation apparatus configured to operate in response to a control signal transmitted from the user apparatus via a network,
the remote operation apparatus comprising:
a movable unit capable of changing a posture;
a video data acquisition unit configured to acquire video data output from a camera disposed in the movable unit;
a motion detection data acquisition unit configured to acquire, through a motion sensor, motion detection data representing a change in the posture of the movable unit; and
a data transmission unit configured to transmit the acquired video data and the acquired motion detection data to the user apparatus via the network,
the user apparatus comprising:
a data reception unit configured to receive the video data and the motion detection data transmitted from the remote operation apparatus via the network;
a determination unit configured to determine, based on the received motion detection data, a period when the posture of the movable unit is changing;
a video image processing unit configured to perform, based on a determination result of the determination unit, a process of reducing a sense of immersion with respect to the video data received during the period when the posture of the movable unit is changing; and
an output unit configured to output, to the display unit, data in which the sense of immersion has been reduced.
