Abstract:
A projection system (400) capable of projection alignment includes a projector (410), a shaped projection screen (420), one or more alignment marks (425), an image sensor (430), and a processing unit (440). The projector is configured to project an image. The shaped projection screen is configured to receive the projected image and display the projected image, the projector having a projection area (415) on the shaped projection screen. The one or more alignment marks are proximate to a border of the projection screen. The image sensor is configured to capture an image of the shaped projection screen and generate a sensor signal corresponding to the captured image. The processing unit is electronically coupled to the image sensor and configured to receive the sensor signal and determine the positions of the one or more alignment marks based on the sensor signal.
Abstract:
A non-parametric computer implemented system and method for creating a two dimensional interpretation of a three dimensional biometric representation. The method comprises: obtaining with a camera a three dimensional (3D) representation of a biological feature; determining a region of interest in the 3D representation; selecting an invariant property for the 3D region of interest; identifying a plurality of minutiae in the 3D representation; mapping a nodal mesh to the plurality of minutiae; projecting the nodal mesh of the 3D representation onto a 2D plane; and mapping the plurality of minutiae onto the 2D representation of the nodal mesh. The 2D representation of the plurality of minutiae has a property corresponding to the invariant property in the 3D representation; and the value of the corresponding property in the 2D projection matches the invariant property in the 3D representation.
