US 11,240,475 B2 · Information processing apparatus and method

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus and method that allow an image projection position to be controlled with more ease. Correction information of an image is generated such that the image is projected onto a desired region of a real space. For example, the correction information is generated such that the projected image is located at a desired position as seen from a given viewpoint position. Also, for example, a correction vector is generated that corrects each pixel position of the image as the correction information. The present disclosure is applicable, for example, to an information processing apparatus, a projection apparatus, an imaging apparatus, a projection imaging apparatus, a projection imaging control apparatus, an image projection imaging system, or the like.

Dependent claims

An information processing apparatus, comprising:

at least one imaging device configured to capture a first image of a projection plane which includes a specific region of a real space;
and
at least one processor configured to:
identify a contour of a first region in a second image based on a contour point group which indicates a contour of a second region in the captured first image, wherein
the first region and the second region correspond to the specific region of the real space, and
the second image is an image which is to be projected on the specific region of the real space;
set the first region in the second image based on the identified contour of the first region in the second image;
and
generate correction information of the second image such that the second image is projected onto the set specific region in the real space.
