Projection system, information processing apparatus and projector

An information processing apparatus for a projection system including a projector, the information processing apparatus comprising:

• an image data dividing unit capable of processing image data corresponding to an image comprised of m-bit pixel data into k-pieces of pixel data of at most n-bits;
• and
• a image data transmission unit capable of transmitting the k-pieces of pixel data of at most n-bits to a projector,
• wherein k is an integer of 2 or more and the projector is capable of receiving the k-pieces of pixel data, performing a synthesis process of the k-pieces of pixel data based on a predetermined synthesis rule in order to generate a synthesized image comprised of m-bit pixel data, and displaying the synthesized image.

A projector which is used for a projection system comprising an information processing apparatus capable of processing image data corresponding to an image to be displayed, the projector comprising:

• an image data receiving unit capable of receiving image data from the information processing apparatus, the image data comprising k-pieces of pixel data corresponding to an image comprised of m-bit pixel data which has been divided into k-pieces by the information processing apparatus;
• an image decoding unit capable of performing a synthesis process of the k-pieces of pixel data based on a predetermined synthesis rule in order to generate a synthesized image comprised of m-bit pixel data;
• and
• a image display unit capable of displaying the synthesized image,
• wherein k is an integer of 2 or more.
