PROJECTION DISPLAY APPARATUS AND IMAGE ADJUSTMENT METHOD
A projection display apparatus displays a test pattern image formed of at least parts of three or more line segments defining three or more intersection points. The projection display apparatus computes a positional relationship between the projection display apparatus and the projection surface, based on the three or more intersection points. The test pattern image has a distortion in an opposite direction to a direction of the lens.
1 . A projection display apparatus having an imager that modulates light emitted from a light source and a projection unit that projects light emitted from the imager onto a projection surface, the projection display apparatus comprising:
an element control unit that controls the imager so as to display a test pattern image formed of at least parts of three or more line segments defining three or more intersection points;
an acquisition unit that acquires a captured image of the test pattern image output from an imaging element that captures the test pattern image projected onto the projection surface;
a computation unit that specifies three or more intersection points from the three or more line segments included in the captured image, based on the captured image acquired by the acquisition unit and that computes a positional relationship between the projection display apparatus and the projection surface, based on the three or more intersection points; and
an adjustment unit that adjusts the image provided on the projection surface, based on the positional relationship between the projection display apparatus and the projection surface, wherein
the imaging element captures the test pattern image through a lens having a distortion in a positive direction or in a negative direction, and
the element control unit controls the imager so as to display the test pattern image having a distortion in an opposite direction to a direction of the lens.
2 . The projection display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the distortion included in the test pattern image is a yarn winding distortion.
3 . The projection display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the imager is disposed at a position shifted from an optical axis center of the projection unit.
4 . The projection display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the projection unit is comprised of a lens group and a reflection mirror that reflects light transmitting the lens group onto the projection surface.
5 . An image adjustment method applied to a projection display apparatus having an imager that modulates light emitted from a light source and a projection unit that projects light emitted from the imager onto a projection surface, the image adjustment method comprising the following steps:
the step A of displaying a test pattern image formed of at least parts of three or more line segments defining three or more intersection points;
the step B of imaging the test pattern image projected onto the projection surface through a lens having a distortion in a positive direction or in a negative direction and acquiring a captured image of the test pattern image; and
the step C of computing a positional relationship between the projection display apparatus and the projection surface, based on the captured image, and adjusting an image projected onto the projection surface, based on the positional relationship between the projection display apparatus and the projection surface, wherein
the step A includes displaying the test pattern image having a distortion in an opposite direction of a direction of the lens.
