Abstract:
1. A system, comprising: a camera system configured to detect three-dimensional orientation information for an identified surface onto which an image is to be projected, the three-dimensional orientation information comprising information about an angle of the identified surface, an orientation of the identified surface and a shape of the identified surface; at least one projector configured to project the image onto the identified surface, and to adjust the image to be projected within the identified surface and oriented in accordance with the information about the angle of the identified surface, the orientation of the identified surface and the shape of the identified surface, wherein the identified surface comprises a marker-less surface, and wherein the camera system is configured to detect the identified surface by creating a depth image based on images received from the camera, analyzing the depth image for weakly connected components to isolate potential surfaces, determining inner points of one of said potential surfaces, mapping the inner points to outer points of the one of said potential surfaces to define a surface, the outer points being determined based on preset attributes for a desired surface, and tracking the defined surface as the identified surface.
