    摘要: Disclosed herein includes a system, a method, and a device for rendering an image through adaptive reprojection. A first reprojection can be performed to generate a portion of a first image of a first view of a virtual space at a first rate. An amount of change from the first view to a second view of the virtual space can be determined. A portion of a second image of the second view of the virtual space can be determined to generate through a second reprojection. The second reprojection can be performed at a second rate to the portion of the second image according to the amount of change from the first view to the second view of the virtual space.

    摘要: A three-dimensional (3-D) projection system includes a projector configured to output a projection of light to simulate a 3-D object, an opaque surface configured to receive the projection of light to simulate a portion of the 3-D object on the opaque surface, and a translucent scrim disposed at a boundary of the opaque surface and configured to receive the projection of light to simulate an extension of the 3-D object away from and beyond the boundary of the opaque surface.

    摘要: Laser or narrow band light sources (e.g., red, green, and blue) are utilized to form left (e.g., R1, G1, B1) and right (e.g., R2, G2, B2) images of a 3D projection. Off-axis viewing of the projections which has the potential to cause crosstalk and/or loss of energy/brightness in any channel or color, is eliminated (or reduced to only highly oblique viewing angles) via the combined use of any of guard bands between light bands of adjacent channels, curvature of viewing filters, and selection of passband wavelengths that maximize usability of the passband as it “shifts” due to varying or increasing angles of off-axis viewing. Implemented with any number of light sources, the light sources selected may also be converted to showing 2D images where the additional light sources are utilized to affect a desirable increase in color gamut.

    摘要: A stereoscopic image display apparatus that is capable of being efficiently aligned using a remotely controlled alignment function and a method of displaying a stereoscopic image using the same are disclosed. The stereoscopic image display apparatus includes a polarizing beam splitter for spatially splitting image light emitted by a projector into at least one transmitted beam and at least one reflected beam based on polarized components, at least one modulator for adjusting the transmitted beam and the reflected beam such that the transmitted beam and the reflected beam have different polarization directions when a left image and a right image are projected by the transmitted beam and the reflected beam, an angle adjustment unit for adjusting the position on a screen on which the transmitted beam is projected in response to a first remote control signal, a remote-control alignment type reflecting member for adjusting the path of the reflected beam in response to a second remote control signal such that the reflected beam overlaps the transmitted beam projected on the position on the screen adjusted in response to the first remote control signal in order to form a single image, and a remote controller remotely connected to the angle adjustment unit and the remote-control alignment type reflecting member for transmitting the first remote control signal and the second remote control signal to the angle adjustment unit and the remote-control alignment type reflecting member, respectively.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to a method of integrating information, including real-time information, into a virtual thematic environment using a computer system, including accessing the stored information from a database or downloading the real-time information from a source external to the thematic environment; inserting the real-time information into the thematic environment; and displaying the information to a user within the thematic environment. In one embodiment, the computer system is connected to a holographic projection system such that the images from the thematic environment can be projected as holographic projections. The computer system includes an interactive software application platform having at least one thematic/publishing logic module which contains thematic environment rules; at least one digital content library module which provides content management on the thematic environment; and at least one quantum imaging environment (QIE) module which interprets content such that the content is manipulated and accessed by any device.

    摘要: An object is to provide an image projection system in which a size and weight of a head-mounted portion are reduced and binocular vision is enabled.
    The present technology provides an image projection system including an image projection apparatus and an image display light diffraction optical element separated from the image projection apparatus and arranged in front of each of the two eyes, and the image projection apparatus includes: a positional information acquisition unit that acquires three-dimensional positional information of the image display light diffraction optical element provided in front of each of two eyes; an image display light adjustment unit that adjusts projected image display light on the basis of the three-dimensional positional information acquired by the positional information acquisition unit; and one projection optical system that can project the image display light to a region covering the two eyes and projects, toward the image display light diffraction optical elements, the image display light adjusted by the image display light adjustment unit.

    摘要: A novel projection system includes first and second light sources (e.g., sets of lasers), a spatial light modulator (SLM) that receives light from the first light source, and a beam steering device that receives light from the second light source and steers the light to highlight regions of the SLM. The SLM then modulates the light from both light sources to generate a highlighted imaging beam which can then be projected on a viewing surface. The highlighted imaging beam can represent a highlighted 2D image or a highlighted left- or right-eye view of a 3D image. The projection system thus improves peak brightness in the displayed highlighted images without incorporating a separate highlight projector or other expensive equipment. Methods for highlighting projected images are also described.

    摘要: A computer implemented method for mapping video to a video wall. The method provides for receiving, by one or more computing devices, content comprising pixel data. The method also provides for generating, by the one or more computing devices, a pixel space. The pixel data is associated with the pixel space by the one or more computing devices. One or more virtual cameras are generated by the one or more computing devices. A portion of the pixel space is captured by the one or more computing devices, and the portion of the pixel space captured by the one or more virtual cameras for display on the video wall is outputted by the one or more computing devices.
