A projector includes a projecting section configured to display an image, an image interface to which an image signal corresponding to a first image is input from a personal computer, an image processing section configured to generate a second image obtained by reducing visibility of the first image based on the image signal, and a first control section configured to, when a first condition is satisfied, cause the projecting section to display the second image and, when a second condition is satisfied, cause the projecting section to display the first image.

Object feature visualization apparatus and methods
11622096 · 2023-04-04 · ·

An object feature visualization system is disclosed. The system may include a computing device that generates video-mapped images to project onto physical objects. The video-mapped images may include features to be projected onto the objects. The projection of a video-mapped image onto the physical object allows for the visualization of the feature on the object. In some examples, the computing device receives a feature selection for a particular object, and generates a video-mapped image with the selected feature to provide to a projector to project the video-mapped image onto the physical object. In some examples, a user is able to select one or more features for one or more objects of a room display via a user interface. The system then projects video-mapped images with the selected features onto the physical objects. The system may allow a user to save feature selections, and to purchase or request additional information about objects with selected features.

CONTROL METHOD

A control method applied in a display device is provided. The display device includes an image generator and a screen. The image generator is directed to output an output image. The screen is directed to operate in a first operation mode or a second operation mode. The screen has a first light-transmittance in the first operation mode and has a second light-transmittance in the second operation mode. The first light-transmittance is different from the second light-transmittance. In response to the screen operating in the first operation mode or the second operation mode, the image generator outputs the output image onto the screen in a light-emitting period and stops outputting the output image onto the screen in a non-light-emitting period after the light-emitting period.

PROJECTION METHOD AND PROJECTOR
20230209026 · 2023-06-29 · ·

A controller of a projector accepts operation of changing the position of a vertex of a first pattern image projected on a projection surface, deforms the shape of a second pattern image containing a plurality of dots based on the operation, causes the second pattern image to be projected onto the projection surface, generates second correction data for correction of the second image based on a captured image as a result of capture of an image of the projection surface on which the second pattern image has been projected in such a way that the positions of the plurality of dots are corrected, and causes an image corrected by using the generated correction data to be projected onto the projection surface.

INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD
20230195401 · 2023-06-22 · ·

There is provided an information processing apparatus and an information processing method capable of intuitively and easily indicating a state of feeling of the autonomous moving body to the user. The information processing apparatus includes a control unit that, according to a change in a position of the autonomous moving body sensed by a sensing unit that senses the position of the autonomous moving body and a feeling parameter indicating the feeling of the autonomous moving body, causes a display screen to display a figure corresponding to the autonomous moving body while changing a state of the figure. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, an apparatus and the like that controls an autonomous moving body.

PORTABLE IMMERSIVE AUDIOVISUAL APPARATUS FOR EXHIBITIONS AND METHOD FOR IMMERSIVE, CLOSE PROXIMITY-TO-EXHIBIT EXPERIENCE
20170356205 · 2017-12-14 ·

A novel, immersive and close-proximity-to-artist concert experience for audiences in a fully panoramic audio-visual setting comprising a customized, portable concert arena defined by a plurality of projection screens at the periphery, displaying pre-programmed video content during a live concert or event, with the artist performing at a central location and the audience located in between the screens and the performing artist, wherein all audio, lighting and video componentry are located outside of the performance area.

PROJECTION SYSTEM
20230195264 · 2023-06-22 · ·

With a projection device, a projection system including the projection device and a display device receives an image from the display device, projects the received image onto a projection target, captures a range including the projection target, and transmits the captured image to the display device. With the display device, the projection system receives the captured image from the projection device, displays the received captured image on the display, generates a drawing image based on a drawing operation, and transmits the generated drawing image to the projection device.

Position detection device, projector, and position detection method
09841892 · 2017-12-12 · ·

A position detection device capable of preventing an operation that is not intended by an operator from being detected as an input is provided. The position detection device includes: a detecting section that detects an indicator that performs an operation with respect to a screen, and a target different from the indicator; an imaging section that images a range including the screen to form a captured image; and a control section that detects a motion of the indicator based on data on the captured image of the imaging section to determine whether or not to detect an operation based on the indicator as an input.

Projection device and projection method, for projecting a first image based on a position of a moving object and a second image without depending on the position

A projection device according to the present disclosure includes a sensor unit (for example, a camera), a detection unit, a controller and a projection unit. The sensor unit detects an object. The detection unit detects a moving object (for example, a person), a first object, and a second object based on a signal output from the sensor unit. The controller generates a projection image such that a first image corresponding to the first object is projected on a first projection region and a second image corresponding to the second object is projected on a second projection region. In this case, the first image is determined based on a position of the moving object, and the second image is determined without depending on a position of the moving object. The projection unit projects the projection image.
