Abstract: A control method includes a first projector receiving an input concerning a first instruction, the first projector displaying an instruction pattern corresponding to the first instruction, a second projector acquiring an image including the instruction pattern, and the second projector performing an operation corresponding to the instruction pattern. The instruction pattern includes a first figure having a first shape and a first color corresponding to content of the first instruction.

Abstract: A method of controlling an image projection system that includes a plurality of projectors including a first projector and a second projector having a lens shift function, and that includes an imaging device, includes: projecting, by the first projector, a first pattern having a first color tone; projecting, by the second projector, a second pattern having a second color tone; generating, by the imaging device, a captured image obtained by capturing a composite image including the first and second pattern; determining, by the first projector, whether an area of an overlapping portion of the second pattern in the captured image is equal to or larger than a predetermined ratio; and causing, by the first projector, the second projector to perform lens shift by the lens shift function of the second projector such that the second pattern overlaps the first pattern, when the area is less than the predetermined ratio.

Abstract: A projector controlling method including projecting a pattern image, capturing an image of the pattern image with an image sensor to acquire captured pattern image data, determining based on the captured pattern image data a flat surface range where a flat surface is present within the range over which the pattern image is projected, generating an on-screen-display superimposed image in such a way that the superimposed image is selectively projected within the flat surface range, and projecting the superimposed image.
