Projection processor, spatial projection apparatus, spatial projection system, and spatial projection method
A projection processor includes a processing unit, and the processing unit obtains information concerning a first projected image which is projected by a projector to be formed on an image forming medium and corrects information concerning a second projected image which is formed on the image forming medium as projected light, which is to be refocused on an aerial space image forming section by a light guide optical system, based on the information concerning the first projected image obtained.
1. A projection processor, comprising:
a processing unit,
wherein the processing unit
obtains information concerning a first projected image which is projected by a projector to be formed on an image forming medium, and
corrects information concerning a second projected image which is formed on the image forming medium as projected light, which is to be refocused on an aerial space image forming section by a light guide optical system, based on the information concerning the first projected image obtained.
2. The projection processor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processing unit obtains a captured image of the first projected image formed on the image forming medium as the information concerning the first projected image.
3. The projection processor according to claim 2 ,
wherein the captured image is obtained by imaging the image forming medium from a side thereof which faces the projector.
4. The projection processor according to claim 3 ,
wherein the captured image is obtained by projecting a correction image for obtaining a degree of strain in the image forming medium before an image is projected for forming a solid image.
5. The projection processor according to claim 3 ,
wherein the captured image is obtained during projection of an image for forming a solid image which includes a correction image whose position can be detected.
6. The projection processor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the correction is a strain correction.
7. The projection processor according to claim 1 , comprising:
the light guide optical system, wherein
the light guide optical system guides light focused on the image forming medium to cause the light to be refocused on the aerial space image forming section.
8. The projection processor according to claim 1 , comprising:
the image forming medium,
wherein the image forming medium is a light transmitting member in which the projected light is shined onto a first surface and the light is diffuse emitted towards the light guide optical system from a second surface which is an opposite surface to the first surface.
9. The projection processor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the light guide optical system comprises a beam splitter and a retro-reflection member, and
wherein the beam splitter reflects light emitted from the image forming medium towards the retro-reflection member and transmits light reflected by the retro-reflection member towards the aerial space image forming section.
10. A spatial projection apparatus, comprising:
a projector comprising a processing unit,
wherein the processing unit obtains information concerning a first projected image which is projected by the projector to be formed on an image forming medium, and
corrects information concerning a second projected image which is formed on the image forming medium as projected light, which is to be refocused on an aerial space image forming section by a light guide optical system, based on the information concerning the first projected image obtained.
11. A spatial projection system, comprising:
a projector having a processing unit,
wherein the processing unit obtains information concerning a first projected image which is projected by the projector to be formed on an image forming medium, and
corrects information concerning a second projected image which is formed on the image forming medium as projected light, which is to be refocused on an aerial space image forming section by a light guide optical system, based on the information concerning the first projected image obtained.
12. A spatial projection method, comprising:
obtaining information concerning a first projected image which is projected by a projector having a processing unit to be formed on an image forming medium;
correcting information concerning a second projected image which is formed on the image forming medium as projected light, which is to be refocused on an aerial space image forming section by a light guide optical system, based on the information concerning the first projected image obtained; and
causing the projector to project the second projected image.
13. The spatial projection method according to claim 12 ,
wherein a captured image of the first projected image formed on the image forming medium is obtained by the processing unit as the information concerning the first projected image.
14. The spatial projection method according to claim 13 ,
wherein the captured image is obtained by imaging the image forming medium from a side thereof which faces the projector.
15. The spatial projection method according to claim 14 ,
wherein the captured image is obtained by projecting a correction image for obtaining a degree of strain in the image forming medium before an image is projected for forming a solid image.
16. The spatial projection method according to claim 14 ,
wherein the captured image is obtained during projection of an image for forming a solid image which includes a correction image whose position can be detected.
