    Abstract: A method to compress an image includes assigning each pixel of the image to a cluster based on a red-green-blue (RGB) location of the pixel. The method also includes updating a centroid of the cluster after each pixel is assigned, based at least in part on the RGB location of the pixel, where the centroid is an RGB location. The method includes replacing each pixel in the image with an RGB value of the centroid of the cluster to which the pixel is assigned. The method also includes instructing a display to display a compressed image where, in the compressed image, each pixel in the image is replaced with the RGB value of the centroid of the cluster to which the pixel is assigned.

    Abstract: A video display system is configured to receive a sequence of image frames. Each frame is divided into a set of blocks. A center of mass is calculated for each block in a first frame and is saved for all blocks in the first frame. A center of mass is calculated for each block in a second frame. Motion between the first frame and the second frame is detected by comparing the center of mass of each block in the second frame to the center of mass of the corresponding block in the first frame, in which a still block is detected when a corresponding block in the first frame and the second frame have a same center of mass, and in which motion in a block is detected when a corresponding block in the first frame and the second frame have a different center of mass.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a first camera configured to capture a first image being displayed, a second camera configured to capture a second image being displayed, and a processor configured to generate a pair-wise homography transform for the first camera and the second camera, and map, based on the pair-wise homography transform, the second image from a second frame of reference of the second camera to a first frame of reference of the first camera. The processor is further configured to determine a first corrected quadrilateral for the first image and a second corrected quadrilateral for the second image in the first frame of reference, and project, based on the pair-wise homography transform, the second corrected quadrilateral from the first frame of reference to the second frame of reference. The quadrilaterals are then processed to warp respective images for geometric correction before projecting the images by respective projectors.
