Image projection kit and method and system of distributing image content for use with the same
A method of projecting imagery. In one embodiment, the method comprises projecting on a surface, from a projector device, a projected image of a matte displayed on a display device; adjusting the size, shape, position, orientation, or any combination thereof, of the projected image of the matte by adjusting the matte displayed on the display device; associating imagery content with the matte; and projecting the associated imagery in the projected image of the matte.
1. A method for projecting imagery, the method comprising:
projecting onto a surface defined by a perimeter, with a projector, an image of a matte displayed on a display device of a computer apparatus;
adjusting at least one of a size, shape, position, and orientation, or any combination thereof, of the matte displayed on the display device of the computer apparatus until edges of the projected image of the matte are aligned with the perimeter of the surface;
associating imagery content with the matte; and
projecting the associated imagery content on the surface in the projected image of the matte.
2. A method for projecting imagery, the method comprising:
displaying a matte on a display device;
associating imagery content to the matte; and
projecting on a surface, from a projector device, a projected image of the matte with the associated imagery content displayed therein.
3. The method according to claim 1 wherein the adjusting step comprises adjusting the position of the projected image of the matte.
4. The method according to claim 1 further comprising:
projecting second imagery content onto a second surface defined by a second perimeter, wherein the second perimeter is greater than the perimeter, the second imagery content being associated with the imagery content.
5. The method according to claim 4 wherein the perimeter of the surface is located within the second perimeter.
6. The method according to claim 4 wherein the surface and the second surface are non-coplanar.
7. The method according to claim 4 wherein the second imagery content and the imagery content together comprise a cohesive image.
8. The method according to claim 1 wherein the adjusting step is performed to correct an optical distortion of the projected image of the matte displayed on the display device of the computer apparatus.
9. The method according to claim 1 wherein the projection of the associated imagery content is limited to a space on the surface on which the projected image of the matte is located.
10. The method according to claim 1 wherein the associated imagery content is taken from a content server that stores content files.
11. The method according to claim 1 further comprising:
saving coordinates of the matte; associating other imagery content with the matte; and projecting the other imagery content on the surface in the projected image of the matte.
12. The method according to claim 2 further comprising adjusting the size, shape, position, orientation, or any combination thereof, of the matte displayed on the display device.
13. The method according to claim 12 wherein the adjusting step comprises adjusting the position of the projected image of the matte.
14. The method according to claim 10 wherein the adjusting step is performed to correct an optical distortion of the projected image of the matte.
15. The method according to claim 2 further comprising:
defining a perimeter of the surface; and projecting second imagery content onto a second surface defined by a second perimeter, wherein the second perimeter is greater than the perimeter and the second imagery content is associated with the imagery content.
16. The method according to claim 15 wherein the perimeter of the surface is located within the second perimeter.
17. The method according to claim 15 wherein the surface and the second surface are non-coplanar.
18. The method according to claim 15 wherein the second imagery content and the imagery content together comprise a cohesive image.
19. The method according to claim 2 wherein the projection of the associated imagery content is limited to a space on the surface on which the projected image of the matte is located.
20. The method according to claim 2 wherein the associated imagery content is taken from a content server that stores content files.
21. The method according to claim 20 wherein the content files stored on the content server are searchable via an electronic access point.
22. The method according to claim 2 further comprising:
saving coordinates of the matte; associating other imagery content with the matte; and projecting the other imagery content on the surface in the projected image of the matte.
