Abstract:
The invention provides a projector apparatus with a distance image acquisition device and a projection mapping method that can project an image focused on the entire projection object even in a case in which there is a difference in distance to the projection object and the projection object moves. Two projector apparatuses with a TOF camera, that is, a first projector apparatus with a TOF camera including a first projector apparatus for a far distance and a first TOF camera that acquires a distance image of a far projection object and a second projector apparatus with a TOF camera including a second projector apparatus for a near distance and a second TOF camera that acquires a distance image of a near projection object can project a projection image for a far distance and a projection image for a near distance which are focused on the entire projection object even in a case in which there is a difference in distance to the projection object and the projection object moves. In addition, a first light source and a second light source of the projector apparatuses are pulse-driven to function as light sources of the first and second TOF cameras.
