Abstract: A system and method for automatic alignment and projection mapping are provided. A projector and at least two cameras are mounted with fields of view that overlap a projection area on a three-dimensional environment.

Abstract: A system and method for geometric warping correction in projection mapping is provided. A lower resolution mesh is applied to A mesh model, at least in a region of the mesh model misaligned with a corresponding region of a real-world object. One or more points of the lower resolution mesh are moved. In response, one or more corresponding points of the mesh model are moved to increase alignment between the region of the mesh model and the corresponding region of the real-world object. An updated mesh model is stored in a memory. And one or more projectors are controlled to projection map images corresponding to the updated mesh model onto the real-world object.

Abstract: A projector and at least two cameras are mounted with fields of view that overlap a projection area on a three-dimensional environment. A computing device: controls the projector to project structured light patterns that uniquely illuminate portions of the environment; acquires images of the patterns from the cameras; generates a two-dimensional mapping of the portions between projector and camera space and by processing the images and correlated patterns; generates a cloud of points representing the environment using the mapping and camera positions; determines a projector location, orientation and lens characteristics from the cloud; positions a virtual camera relative to a virtual three-dimensional environment, corresponding to the environment, parameters of the virtual camera respectively matching parameters of the projector; and, controls the projector to project based on a virtual location, orientation and characteristics of the virtual camera.
