Abstract
Gestures may be performed to control a visual projector. When a device or human hand is placed into a projection field of the visual projector, the visual projector responds to gestures. The human hand, for example, may gesture to rotate a projected image or to correct the projected image. The visual projector may thus manipulate and/or correct the projected image in response to the gesture.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- projecting, by a projector, a source image;
- receiving, by the projector, a digital image of a reflection of the source image;
- comparing, by the projector, the source image to the digital image to detect a gesture performed in a projection field of the source image;
- and
- projecting, by the projector, a silhouette that overlaps the gesture performed in the projection field.

A projector, comprising:
- a hardware processor;
- and
- a memory device, the memory device storing code, the code when executed causing the hardware processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
- projecting a source image;
- receiving a digital image of a reflection of the source image;
- comparing the source image to the digital image to detect a gesture performed in a projection field of the source image;
- and
- projecting a silhouette that overlaps the gesture performed in the projection field.

A memory device storing instructions that when executed cause a hardware processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
- projecting a source image;
- receiving a digital image of a reflection of the source image;
- comparing the source image to the digital image to detect a gesture performed in a projection field of the source image;
- and
- projecting a silhouette that overlaps the gesture performed in the projection field.
