Abstract: An interactive projector includes a projection section, a plurality of cameras including a first camera and a second camera, a position detection section adapted to detect a first coordinate position of the pointing element on the projected screen based on a first taken image including the pointing element taken by the first camera, and detect a second coordinate position of the pointing element on the projected screen based on a second taken image including the pointing element taken by the second camera, and a contact detection section adapted to detect contact of the pointing element with the projected screen based on the first coordinate position and the second coordinate position, and the contact detection section detects the contact of the pointing element with the projected screen in a case in which the first coordinate position and the second coordinate position coincide with each other within an allowable tolerance.

Abstract: A projector includes an imaging unit which images a screen SC, and a position detection unit which detects an indication position of an indicator based on a captured image of the imaging unit. The position detection unit detects reflected light of detection light reflected by the indicator from the captured image of the imaging unit and obtains the indication position of the indicator based on the position of the reflected light detected from the captured image and the distance between the screen SC and the imaging unit.

Abstract: A position detection device includes an imaging unit that captures an image of light emitted by the spontaneous emission pointing element on the operation surface and generates a captured image; a detection unit that detects the pointing position based on the spontaneous emission pointing element on the basis of the captured image; and a correction unit that corrects the pointing position, using a correction value determined in accordance with a tip offset which is a distance between a contact position at which the spontaneous emission pointing element comes into contact with the operation surface and an emission position of the spontaneous emission pointing element. The correction unit corrects the pointing position using a correction value varying according to a position on the operation surface.
