Projection device
11438558 · 2022-09-06 · ·

An electronic device comprises a projector that is configured to project an image and a control unit. The control unit is configured to control an orientation of the image to be projected to a first orientation when the electronic device is in a first attitude, and to control the orientation of the image to be projected to a second orientation different from the first orientation when the electronic device is in a second attitude different from the first attitude.

Systems and methods for media projection surface selection

Methods and systems are provided for automatically selecting a target area to project content thereon. For example, a projection device receives content to be projected and content attributes of the content. The projection device also captures images of candidate areas and determines candidate area characteristics based on the captured images. The projection device generates a respective quality-of-projection indicator based on the content attributes and the candidate area characteristics. The projection device selects the candidate area with the highest quality-of-projection indicator as the target area on which the content is to be projected.
