Rear projection imaging system with image warping distortion correction system and associated method
Patent number: 9140973Abstract: A rear projection imaging system with an image warping distortion correction system using a camera and processing unit to generate a warping map that corrects for image distortion. The warping map is generated in an iterative process by displaying a known pattern on a viewing screen and, through the use of a camera, having a microprocessor determine the location and shape of the pattern on the screen. The microprocessor then compares the displayed image to the original reference image, calculates the distortion effects present in the projection optics, and generates a warping map.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2014Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: Fakespace Labs, Inc.Inventors: Ian E. McDowall, Mark T. Bolas -
Patent number: 9100643Abstract: The multi-person stereo display system permits several independent viewers to see different stereo images on a single projection surface. This is accomplished through the innovative use of video multiplexing, software, control electronics, and special viewing glasses. The system is particularly useful in situations where the viewers see computer generated images from their own independent perspectives.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2014Date of Patent: August 4, 2015Assignee: Fakespace Labs, Inc.Inventors: Ian E.
