    VarioLight: Hybrid Dynamic Projection Mapping Using High-Speed Projector and Optical Axis Controller

Organizer(s)/Presenter(s):



Description:


    This paper proposes VarioLight: a method for realizing dynamic projection mapping (DPM) onto a widely moving and finely deforming/rotating object, by combining a high-speed/low-latency projector and a mirror-based high-speed optical axis controller. It realized DPM applications such as projection sticking even to highly dynamic object and visualization of its dynamics.

    Projection mapping have attracted much attention in recent years and many researches have tried to expand it to dynamic objects. However, it has some problems in the range of motion, the resolution, and the kinds of object that can be projected. In this paper, we propose a method for realizing dynamic projection mapping by combining a high-speed/low-latency projector and a mirror-based high-speed optical axis controller. Based on high-speed visual feedback with multiple dot markers, dynamic projection mapping onto rotating/deforming objects moving in a wide range, with almost-imperceptible delay, has become possible.
