PROJECTION DISPLAY APPARATUS
A camera for capturing an object that will enter a projection space is attached to the casing of a projection display apparatus. The camera is installed at the position in which, when the camera faces the projection plane, at least one of the back direction and the side direction of the casing is included within the filed of view of the camera. For example, the cameras are installed on both side edges of the casing so as to face each other.
1 . A projection display apparatus for projecting an image on a projection plane, comprising:
a camera configured to capture an object that will enter a projection space, the camera being attached to the casing of the projection display apparatus, wherein the camera is installed at the position in which, when observes the projection plane, at least one of the back direction and the side direction of the casing is included within the field of view of the camera.
2 . The projection display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein two of the cameras are installed on the casing, and wherein the two cameras are installed on both side edges of the casing so as to face each other.
3 . The projection display apparatus according to claim 1 configured to emit light in an oblique direction from a projection port provided on the upper surface of the casing, wherein cameras are installed on the left end and the right end of the casing, respectively, when the cameras face the projection plane.
4 . The projection display apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein, of the two cameras installed on the casing, the camera to be installed on the left side when the camera faces the projection plane, is installed such that the direction of the camera is adjusted to ensure that the left end of the field of view of the camera corresponds to the left end of the image, projected on the projection plane, and wherein the camera to be installed on the right end when the camera faces the projection plane, is installed such that the direction of the camera is adjusted to ensure that the right end of the field of view of the camera corresponds to the right end of the image, projected on the projection plane.
5 . The projection display apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein, of the two cameras installed on the casing, the camera to be installed on the left side when the camera faces the projection plane, is installed such that the direction of the camera is adjusted to ensure that the left end of the field of view of the camera corresponds to the left end of the image, projected on the projection plane, and wherein the camera to be installed on the right end when the camera faces the projection plane, is installed such that the direction of the camera is adjusted to ensure that the right end of the field of view of the camera corresponds to the right end of the image, projected on the projection plane.
6 . A projection display apparatus for projecting an image on a projection plane, comprising:
an infrared sensor configured to detect an object that will enter a projection space, the infrared sensor being attached to the casing of the projection display apparatus, wherein the infrared sensor is installed at the position in which, when the infrared sensor faces the projection plane, at least one of the back direction and the side direction of the casing is included within the field of view of the infrared sensor.
