  • Patent number: 11934616
    Abstract: A method for controlling an image display system includes detecting a position to which a pointing element is pointing on a fourth image, identifying first coordinates in a coordinate system of the fourth image, the first coordinates represent the position in the fourth image, acquiring first information representing resolution of a second image and second information representing a position of a third image relative to the second image on an image supplier, converting the first coordinates into second coordinates in a coordinate system of a first image, which represent a position in the first image, based on the first information and the second information, and transmitting the second coordinates to the image supplier and carrying out a process based on the second coordinates when the image supplier receives the second coordinates from a display apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20230209027
    Abstract: A display method includes displaying a first image containing a first portion and a second portion different from the first portion on a screen by a projector, storing information representing a first shape which is a shape of the first portion when the screen is seen from a first direction, and, when the shape of the first portion as seen from the first direction changes to a shape different from the first shape, displaying, by the projector, a second image obtained by performing correction on the first image to make the shape of the first portion as seen from the first direction closer to the first shape, and not performing the correction on the second portion on the screen.

  • Publication number: 20230112393
    Abstract: A control method for a display system includes, displaying, by an image supply device, a display image accepting a first operation to the display image transmitting a display signal to a display device, the display signal including coordinate information representing a position in the display image of the first operation and the display image generating, by the display device, a composite image formed by combining a line drawing image at a position corresponding to the coordinate information, and displaying, by the display device, the composite image on a display surface of the display device.
