Multi-projector system and method

A computer program product comprising machine-readable instructions stored on a non-transitory computer-readable media for causing a computing device to perform the steps of:

• dividing the projectors of a multi-projector system into a plurality of sub-groups of projectors, each projector oriented to project a sub-frame to a sub-group display location, wherein the plurality of sub-groups comprises at least two sub-groups;
• adjusting the output of each separate projector sub-group to selected target parameters;
• sending display data to each projector in each sub-group to project a composite image to each sub-group display location;
• and
• projecting images from at least first and second sub-groups of projectors to a common display location to provide a display having multiple views.

A projection system, comprising:

• a plurality of sub-groups of projectors, each projector oriented to project a sub-frame to a sub-group display location, wherein the plurality of sub-groups comprises at least two sub-groups;
• a camera, oriented to obtain an image of the sub-group display location;
• and
• a controller, coupled to the camera and all of the projectors, configured to select target parameters for each projector in each separate sub-group based upon feedback from the camera, and to independently provide digital values to each projector such that an overall target display characteristic is achieved across all sub-groups,
• wherein the controller is further configured to project images from at least first and second sub-groups of projectors to a common display location to provide a display having multiple views.
