Abstract: A projector that projects a visible image as well as a non-visible image. The non-visible image might be used for any purpose, but an example is in order to provide depth information regarding physical item(s) interacting with the projected visible image. The projector includes multiple projecting units (e.g., one for each pixel to be displayed), each including light-emitting elements configured to emit light in the visible spectrum. Some or all of those projecting units might also include an emitting element for emitting light in the non-visible spectrum so as to collectively emit a non-visible image. Optics may be positioned to project the visible image and the non-visible image. A depth sensing module detects depth of surfaces within the scope of the non-visible image using a reflected portion of the non-visible image.
Abstract translation: 投影机投影可见图像以及不可见图像。 不可视图像可以用于任何目的,但是示例是为了提供与投影的可见图像交互的物理项目的深度信息。 投影仪包括多个投影单元(例如,用于要显示的每个像素的一个),每个投影单元包括被配置为发射可见光谱中的光的发光元件。 这些突出单元中的一些或全部也可以包括用于发射不可见光谱中的光的发射元件,以便共同发射不可见的图像。 可以定位光学来投影可见图像和不可见图像。 深度感测模块使用不可见图像的反射部分来检测不可见图像的范围内的表面的深度。

Abstract: An accessory facilitating interaction with a projected image at least partially sourced by the image generation device. The accessory receives an input image from a device, and projects at least a derived image of the input image onto a surface on which the accessory sits. For instance, the accessory might project the input image itself, or perhaps some post-processed version of the input image. A camera system captures data representing user interaction with the projected image. Based on this data, an image input event is detected, and then communicated to the device. For instance, if the image generation device were a touch-sensitive device, the device may respond to the user contacting the projected image the same as it would if the user touched the image generation device at the same corresponding location. Embodiments described herein also relate color compensation of a displayed image.

Abstract: The projection of interactive images such that different images are pre-edited so that when projected, the image is better suited for viewing from a particular perspective. Thus, a variety of images might be projected such that some are suitable for one perspective, some are suitable for another perspective, and so forth. For instance, one image might be edited so that when projected, the projected first image is presented for better viewing from a first perspective. Another image might be edited so that when projected, the projected second image is presented for better viewing from a second perspective.
Abstract translation: 交互式图像的投影,使得不同的图像被预编辑,使得当投影时,图像更适合于从特定的角度观看。 因此,可以投影各种图像,使得一些图像适合于一个透视图,一些图像适合于另一透视,等等。 例如,可以编辑一个图像,使得在投影时,从第一个角度呈现投影的第一个图像以便更好地观看。 可以编辑另一个图像,以便在投影时,从第二个角度呈现投影的第二个图像以便更好地观看。
