  • Patent number: 9769443
    Abstract: A system and method for facilitating keystone correction in a given model of projector having an attached camera is disclosed. System calibration determines intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of the projector and camera; then control points are identified within a three-dimensional space in front of a screen. The three-dimensional space defines a throw range and maximum pitch and yaw offsets for the projector/screen combination. At each control point, the projector projects a group of structured light elements on the screen and the camera captures an image of the projected pattern. These images are used to create three-dimensional look-up tables that identify a relationship between each image and at least one of (i) pitch and yaw offset angles for the respective control point and (ii) a focal length and a principal point for the respective control point. The given model projectors use the tables in effectuating keystone correction.

  • Patent number: 9756303
    Abstract: In described examples, solid field patterns are projected onto screens via at least one projector. The screens include user-defined sub-screens. The projected solid field patterns are image captured as imaged solid patterns via at least one camera. For camera perspective planes of the at least one camera, first corner coordinates of the sub-screens are determined, based on differences in pixel values of the imaged solid patterns. Homography matrices are associated with the camera perspective planes and associated with projector perspective planes of the at least one projector. For the projector perspective planes, the first corner coordinates are transformed to second corner coordinates of the sub-screens, based on the homography matrices. Images are projected based on the second corner coordinates.
