Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus and an information processing method for suppressing a decrease in the accuracy of image projection correction. By use of an image projection model using a distortion factor of an f? lens with an image height of incident light expressed by the product of a focal point distance f and an incident angle ? of the incident light, the posture of a projection section for projecting an image and the posture of an imaging section for capturing a projection plane to which the image is projected are estimated. The present disclosure may be applied, for example, to information processing apparatuses, projection apparatuses, imaging apparatuses, projection imaging apparatuses, projection imaging control apparatuses, or image projection and imaging systems.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus and method that allow an image projection position to be controlled with more ease. Correction information of an image is generated such that the image is projected onto a desired region of a real space. For example, the correction information is generated such that the projected image is located at a desired position as seen from a given viewpoint position. Also, for example, a correction vector is generated that corrects each pixel position of the image as the correction information. The present disclosure is applicable, for example, to an information processing apparatus, a projection apparatus, an imaging apparatus, a projection imaging apparatus, a projection imaging control apparatus, an image projection imaging system, or the like.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to image processing apparatus and method configured so that degradation of invisibility of a pattern can be reduced. According to the luminance of a contents image, a luminance difference between two pattern images projected in a superimposed state on the contents image, having an identical shape, and having patterns in opposite luminance change directions is adjusted. The present disclosure is, for example, applicable to an image processing apparatus, an image projection apparatus, a control apparatus, an information processing apparatus, a projection image capturing system, an image processing method, a program, or the like.
