Abstract
An image projection system (10) having a projector (12) having an interchangeable optical slide holder (14) configured to adaptively focus an object slide (20) onto a surface (16, 42) of a vehicle (17). The system includes an image management system (18) associated with the projector. The image management system is for selectively associating one object slide at a time with the interchangeable optical slide holder for projection of the selected object slide (20a) upon the surface.

An image projection system, comprising:
- a projector having an interchangeable optical slide holder configured to adaptively focus an object slide onto a surface of a vehicle the interchangeable optical slide holder further comprising a lens having a projection axis that intersects at a common point with a plane of the selected object slide and a lens plane of the lens;
- and
- an image management system associated with the projector, the image management system for selectively associating one object slide at a time with the interchangeable optical slide holder for projection of a selected object slide upon the surface.
A method of projecting an image, the method comprising:
- projecting an object slide with a projector having an interchangeable optical slide holder configured to adaptively focus the object slide onto a surface of a vehicle the interchangeable optical slide holder further comprising a lens having a projection axis that intersects at a common point with a plane of the selected object slide and a lens plane of the lens;
- and
- managing the projecting with an image management system associated with the projector, the image management system for selectively associating one object slide at a time with the interchangeable optical slide holder for projection of a selected object slide upon the surface.
