Abstract:
A lighting system comprisinga plurality of image projection lighting devices including a first image projection lighting device; a central controller; a communications system which permits the central controller to communicate commands under control of an operator to the plurality of image projection lighting devices; and wherein the first image projection lighting device is comprised of a camera and a light valve; wherein the light valve of the first image projection lighting device is used to project a first projected image at a first rotational angle onto a projection surface; wherein the camera of the first image projection lighting device can capture at least a portion of the first projected image to form a first captured image; wherein at least a portion of the first captured image is projected as a second projected image at a second rotational angle by the first image projection lighting device onto the projection surface; wherein the first rotational angle is different from the second rotational angle; wherein the difference between the first rotational angle and the second rotational angle is determined by a command from the central controller; and wherein the rotational angle of the first image projected on the projection surface and the rotational angle of the second image projected on the projection surface can be varied by a command determined by the operator of the central controller to create video feedback art comprised of a series of projected images.
