Abstract
A method of displaying an image with a display system includes receiving image data for the image. The method includes generating a first single-color sub-frame and a second single-color sub-frame corresponding to the image data. The method includes projecting the first sub-frame with a first projector onto a target surface. The method includes projecting the second sub-frame with a second projector onto the target surface, wherein the first and the second sub-frames at least partially overlap on the target surface.

A method of displaying an image with a display system, the method comprising:
- receiving image data for the image;
- generating a first single-color sub-frame and a second single-color sub-frame corresponding to the image data;
- projecting the first sub-frame with a first projector onto a target surface;
- and
- projecting the second sub-frame with a second projector onto the target surface, wherein the first and the second sub-frames at least partially overlap on the target surface.
A system for displaying an image, the system comprising:
- a buffer adapted to receive image data for the image;
- a sub-frame generator configured to define first and second single-color sub-frames corresponding to the image data;
- a first projection device adapted to project the first sub-frame onto a target surface;
- and
- a second projection device adapted to project the second sub-frame onto the target surface, such that the second sub-frame at least partially overlaps the first sub-frame.
A system for generating low-resolution sub-frames for simultaneous projection onto a viewing surface at spatially offset positions to generate the appearance of a high-resolution image, the system comprising:
- means for receiving a first high-resolution image;
- means for generating a first plurality of low-resolution, single-color sub-frames based on the first high-resolution image;
- and
- means for iteratively updating the first plurality of sub-frames based on an error calculated at each iteration.
A computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for performing a method of generating low-resolution sub-frames for simultaneous projection onto a viewing surface at spatially offset positions to generate the appearance of a high-resolution image, comprising:
- receiving a first high-resolution image;
- generating a first plurality of low-resolution, single-color sub-frames based on the first high-resolution image;
- and
- iteratively updating the first plurality of sub-frames based on an error calculated at each iteration.
