    摘要: A method projects one or more image onto a curved display surface. First, a predetermined structured light pattern is projected onto the display surface. A stereo pair of images is acquired of the projected images on the display surface. Then, a quadric transfer function between the predetermined images and the stereo pair of images, via the display surface, is determined. Thus, an arbitrary output image can be warped according to the quadric transfer function so that when it is projected onto the display surface it appears correct.

    摘要: A method displays an image on a display surface. First, structured patterns are projected on the display surface by multiple projectors Pi. Input images of the structured pattern are acquired. Each input image is acquired by a camera Ci in a fixed physical relationship to a corresponding one of the projectors. The correspondences are triangulated to determine a quadric transfer TPiCk. Quadric transfer parameters are determined of the quadric transfer T. Output images from the projectors are warped according to the quadric transfer and the quadric transfer parameters.

    摘要: A method determines a largest rectangle on a display surface. A polygon L is drawn on a first depth plane having a depth z=1 in a depth buffer. A rectangle R is drawn with a predetermined aspect ratio on a second depth plane having a depth z=0. A center of projection is determined with a minimum depth z in a range [0,1] that maps the rectangle R into a largest rectangle S in the first depth plane so that the rectangle S remains completely inside the polygon L.

    摘要: A method adjusts a pose of a projector with respect to a display surface. A homography HD,P is determined between a display surface and a projector. The homography HD,P is decomposed into rotation and translation parameters expressing a pose MP of the projector. An ideal pose M0 of the projector corresponding to an ideal homography H0 is determined. A pose adjustment MA is determined according to MA=M0(MP)−1. The pose adjustment MA is decomposed into rotation and translation adjustment parameters. Then, the projector is adjusted mechanically to the ideal pose M0 according to the rotation and translation adjustment parameters.

    摘要: A wireless location and identification system includes a controller and a tag. The controller has a projector configured to generate a unique temporal sequence of light intensities for each pixel in an output image of the projector and a wireless transceiver configured to emit an output signal and receive an input signal. The tag includes a photo-sensor configured to sense the unique temporal sequence of light intensities of a particular pixel, a transducer configured to receive the output signal from the transceiver, and a means for modulating, according to the unique temporal sequence of light intensities, the input signal for the transceiver in response to receiving the output signal and sensing the unique temporal sequence of light intensities of the particular pixel to indicate a location of the tag to the controller.

    摘要: A method forms a cluster from a set of projectors. Each projector in the set includes a projector sub-system in a fixed physical relationship to a camera sub-system, and a communication sub-system for sending and receiving messages. A calibrate message is received in the projectors via the communications sub-system. A ready message is broadcast by the projectors using the communications sub-system. A structured pattern is projected sequentially by each of the projectors on a display surface using the projector sub-system. An input image of the structured pattern is acquired sequentially by each of the projectors using the camera sub-system. The projectors are globally aligned with each other and the display surface according to the input images.
